About The Position
Join CrowdStrike’s MacOS Sensor Foundation team supporting the Falcon endpoint protection platform. The team builds and maintains core macOS sensor components in user space using C++ and Swift, providing a platform for features that enable prevention, detection, and response.

The cloud aggregates sensor telemetry across customer networks, correlates threats across machines, and presents prioritized threat summaries. The role owns design and development of macOS sensor features that can span file system, memory, process, and networking subsystems, with some shared components across Windows and Linux. The position is hybrid, with 2–3 days per week on-site at one of the posted locations.
