Location: Sunnyvale, California




Job Description:
CrowdStrike, Inc.

Full time

R20503

About the Role:
Cloud Red Team Blue Team, also known as Cloud Purple Team, is a week-long engagement that helps prepare the customer’s cybersecurity team by learning from experts, as the CrowdStrike Red Team emulates adversary tactics and attacks their cloud environment, while the CrowdStrike Blue Team simultaneously coaches their security team through the related response and investigation.
If you are hired as a Blue Teamer you’ll be primarily dedicated to Blue Teaming but you will also be cross-trained in how to perform the role of the Red Teamer and vice versa so that both team members have a better understanding of their partner’s role.

If You Want To Be a Blue Teamer:
You will deliver CRTBT engagements, where you will support the customer’s SOC/IR team in threat hunting and incident response activities as the CrowdStrike Red Teamer uses techniques characteristic of real breach attempts to generate potential detections and telemetry. You will work closely with customers to understand existing controls and practices and make recommendations based on detection and response capabilities, as well as manage projects from kickoff call through to report delivery. Additionally, you will identify and implement long-term enhancements to the CRTBT offering that will better enable clients to stop and recover from breaches.
What You'll Need:

  • 2-3 years experience in incident response consulting services or MSSP roles, with a strong background in one or more public cloud platforms (typically AWS, Azure infrastructure, Microsoft Entra ID/M365, GCP & Google Workspace), including an understanding of common attack paths in those platforms particularly surrounding identity

  • Experience in architecting multiple security technologies, including at least one log search engine/SIEM (Splunk, Azure Sentinel, LogScale, etc.)

  • Experience with building and growing strategic relationships with client mid-level managers and executives

  • Experience implementing information security programs within domains such as endpoint security, cloud security, network security, threat intelligence, or security operations centers is helpful


    • Bonus Points:

  • A strong background in teaching and/or mentorship, for example as an instructor or in an industry-related research capacity

  • Familiarity with common compliance standards and their implementation, such as CIS Benchmarks


    • If You Want To Be a Red Teamer:
    You will deliver CRTBT engagements, where you will perform live attack techniques against the customer’s cloud environment or an environment hosted within one of our labs. Your goal will be to trigger detections and generate telemetry whilst simulating real breach attempts as the CrowdStrike Blue Teamer supports the customer’s SOC/IR team in performing incident response and threat hunting targeting your activity. You will work closely with customers to help them understand gaps in their existing controls, provide remediation instructions, and make recommendations for detection and preventions based on their capabilities. You will utilize and develop both open-source and in-house toolkits for attack automation written in Python and PowerShell. Additionally, you will identify and implement long-term enhancements to the CRTBT offering that will better enable clients to stop and recover from breaches.
    What You'll Need:

  • 2-3 years experience in red team consulting services, with a strong background in one or more public cloud platforms (typically AWS, Azure infrastructure, Microsoft Entra ID/M365, GCP & Google Workspace)

  • 2-3 years of researching threats and adversaries in at least on of the public cloud services

  • Programming/scripting experience for automating tasks - particular in Python, Go and PowerShell

  • Experience with infrastructure as code - particularly Terraform, Ansible, and Packer

  • A research mindset with a focus on simulating adversaries and discovering new and novel attack vectors in the cloud

  • An advanced understanding of public cloud resource and control plane threats and vulnerabilities


    • Bonus Points:

  • Published cloud research work (i.e. blog, github, etc.)

  • Experience hosting lab environments (i.e. cloud ops roles, homelab, etc.)

  • Active on CTF platforms such as HackTheBox


    • If You Want To Be Both: We have an interview slot with your name on it.
    Additionally, all candidates must possess the following qualifications:

  • 5+ years cybersecurity industry experience overall, ideally in hands-on roles including security engineering, detection engineering, etc.

  • Experience in customer-facing project management with a keen eye toward customer service

  • Demonstrated ability to excel in a fast-paced professional services environment and ability to balance competing priorities while still maintaining focus on details and meeting deadlines with a structured approach

  • Proven track record in technical and creative problem solving coupled with the analytical expertise to provide quick resolution to problems

  • Exceptional oral and written communication skills

  • Strong business acumen

  • Ability to foster a positive work environment and attitude
