About the Role:

This is a highly technical position on one of two teams within the Technical Analysis Cell (TAC), at the forefront of CrowdStrike's mission against nation state and criminal adversaries. Both teams are tasked with investigating, reconstructing and reverse engineering newly discovered, malicious artefacts and documenting analysis results as a stream of intelligence reporting. We are often the first to analyze previously unknown threats. One team encounters mobile malware (primarily APKs); The other team analyses cloud activity logs; We respond quickly when needed and perform equally well at conducting detailed analysis. Communication and collaboration with other teams of CrowdStrike is highly important to facilitate this.

As distributed international teams, we are looking for an energetic self-starter with the ability to take ownership and be accountable for deliverables while at the same time supporting and helping to improve upon our analysis workflow. If you'd like to work with passionate people in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment, you've come to the right place!
