About the Role:
The Falcon Secure Access (FSA) team at CrowdStrike is expanding. As a Senior Software Engineer on our team, you will architect and deliver a next-generation secure access platform that converges Zero Trust Network Access with browser-native security.
You'll build the core systems that enable users to seamlessly and securely access internal sites, private applications, and cloud resources directly from the browser — without legacy VPNs or remote desktops — while enforcing real-time protection against zero-day exploits, phishing, data exfiltration, and unauthorized access.
This role sits at the intersection of network engineering and browser security: you'll design and implement advanced proxy communication, secure tunneling, and identity-aware routing — all operating at the browser's core to deliver holistic protection including DLP, insider threat detection, SaaS security, and continuous zero-trust verification.
What You'll Do:
Design and build ZTNA infrastructure — implement zero-trust access policies, secure tunneling, and identity-aware network routing that replaces traditional VPN architectures
Develop advanced networking solutions — build and optimize proxy communication layers, WebSocket-based transport, and encrypted client-to-server channels that handle millions of concurrent connections
Architect high-scale backend systems — design distributed microservices for policy enforcement, real-time threat detection, and access control at scale using Node.js / TypeScript
Implement secure client-server communication — design highly secured agent-to-cloud architectures with certificate pinning, mutual TLS, and encrypted tunneling protocols
Build browser-native security components — develop browser extensions and agents (Chrome, Edge, Firefox etc.) that enforce data protection, prevent data leakage, and provide granular visibility and control
Own features end-to-end — from design through delivery, including deployment and monitoring
Influence architecture and roadmap — play a key role in architectural decisions, building toward an efficient distributed zero-trust architecture
Research and develop — drive new initiatives and POCs in zero-trust access domains and browser security
Collaborate cross-functionally — work with security researchers, product, and platform teams across multiple locations to solve complex problems
What You'll Need:
5+ years of industry experience building high-performance software products, preferably in cybersecurity
Strong networking fundamentals — deep understanding of communication protocols (TCP/IP, TLS, WebSockets, HTTP/2), proxy architectures, and tunneling mechanisms
Proven backend expertise — experience designing and developing high-scale microservices in Node.js / TypeScript / Python / GO / C++
Proven experience utilizing AI technologies to enhance decision-making, streamline workflows and processes, improve efficiency and drive business outcomes
Hands-on experience with proxy and secure communication — WebSocket implementations, forward/reverse proxies, MITM inspection, and encrypted channel design
Familiarity with encryption and secure communication — TLS/mTLS, certificate management, key exchange protocols, and secure session handling
Experience with client-agent development — building complex, efficient client-side agents with reliable server communication
Cloud platform experience — AWS, GCP, or Azure, with understanding of on-premises and hybrid infrastructure
Strong research and debugging capabilities — ability to dive deep into protocol-level issues, browser internals, and network traces
BS or MS in Computer Science or related engineering discipline
Proactive problem-solver with attention to detail and a team-oriented mindset
Bonus Points:
Network security background — experience with network-layer security, firewalls, NAC, SD-WAN, or SASE architectures
ZTNA / Zero Trust experience — familiarity with zero-trust principles, identity-based access, micro-segmentation, or existing ZTNA products
EDR/endpoint security knowledge — experience integrating with endpoint detection and response platforms
Browser internals expertise — Chromium internals, browser extension/plugin development, or web platform APIs
OS internals and low-level networking — understanding of OS network stacks, socket programming, or kernel-level packet handling
Containerization and orchestration — Kubernetes, self-contained deployable agents, on-prem components
