CrowdStrike is a global cybersecurity company founded in 2011. Its core product, the Falcon platform, is a cloud-native system that delivers unified protection across endpoints, cloud workloads, identity, and data. The platform processes nearly 3 trillion security events daily, reflecting the scale at which it operates across its worldwide customer base.
The company employs thousands of people globally and operates as a remote-first organisation. Engineering teams work on problems spanning cloud-native platform development, large-scale telemetry processing, endpoint security, identity security, and data protection - disciplines that sit at the harder end of the cybersecurity spectrum.
CrowdStrike's internal culture emphasises autonomy and flexibility, with employees - referred to internally as CrowdStrikers - expected to operate with a high degree of independence. The organisation places significant weight on speed and precision at scale, treating them as complementary rather than competing priorities. Its stated mission centres on protecting the digital infrastructure that underpins modern society.
