Engineer Iii

Description:

We’re looking for an engineer with strong experience in object-oriented development, solid computer science fundamentals around multithreading, memory, and data structures, and the desire to work on a distributed system at CrowdStrike scale. We are building a large distributed system (using both public cloud and datacenter components) and we rely primarily on C++ (C++17 currently) as our core language to achieve high performance and high throughput. If you are already comfortable in both those domains, you’ll be a great fit! If not, we are looking for a candidate who is either a solid C++ developer willing to learn about distributed systems OR a backend developer willing to dive into modern C++. As long as you’ve got a solid foundation and a willingness to grow, we’ll happily help you learn whatever new concepts, frameworks & languages are necessary.

In addition to our C++ foundation, you can also expect a healthy dose of Python in our build, deployment, scripting and automation tools as well as other languages such as Java, Golang and Ruby that you will encounter along the way. We also rely on industry leading tools such as Docker, Apache Kafka, RocksDB, Apache Zookeeper, Apache Helix and more, to run smoothly and efficiently at scale. We are technically fearless and work together to find the best solution for the task at hand.

What You'll Need
 

• A background where you’ve designed, built and operated scalable distributed systems
