About the Role:
Help us protect CrowdStrike and its customers from the most advanced threats!
As a Sr. Engineer in Product Security specializing in IAM – you will play a critical role in ensuring the security of our multi-cloud-native Falcon platform.

Lead and manage projects involving diverse cross-functional stakeholders, ensuring alignment and successful delivery while building deep relationships with product and engineering leaders
Stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in IAM and cybersecurity to continuously improve our security posture.

Experience building access provisioning and governance systems-as-a-service (e.g. just-in-time, self-service, zero trust, service mesh)
Familiarity with infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform, SaltStack, Ansible)
Strong understanding of identity federation and SSO (e.g. OAuth, OIDC, SAML, SCIM)
Proficiency in scripting and automation to ease IAM operations and integrations (e.g., Python, Bash, Go).
Experience with Cloud-scale, business-critical Linux and/or other Unix-like variant environments
Experience operating at scale and complexity in services and users.
Demonstrated ability to run projects with diverse stakeholders and ensure successful delivery in a fast-paced environment with teams that engineer products and bring them to market.
Bonus Points:
Experience with Microsoft Active Directory design and management.
