About the Role:

CrowdStrikes Identity Protection Product Group in Israel has grown into one of the highest-performing teams driving significant ARR growth while tackling one of cybersecuritys hardest problems: identity posture at cloud scale. As a Senior Engineer on the Entities team youll own the full entity lifecycle - from scraping identity data across Active Directory Azure and cloud providers through enrichment and risk scoring to publishing millions of identity entities into CrowdStrikes asset platform. Your systems are the foundation that detection rules alert pipelines and customer-facing dashboards all depend on. Youll tackle real-world scale challenges: processing massive volumes of identity data through complex dependency graphs maintaining data consistency across distributed regions and building new high-performance Go microservices to replace and extend legacy systems.

What Youll Do:

• Own the entity enrichment pipeline - a DAG-based computation engine that calculates 100 fields risk scores and privilege relationships for every identity entity

• Build and maintain data ingestion services that scrape Active Directory forests process cloud assets from Azure/AWS via Kafka and integrate third-party identity sources

• Design and develop new Go microservices as the team migrates performance-critical paths from to Go

• Solve complex data pipeline challenges: dependency ordering incremental computation race condition handling and cache invalidation at scale

• Publish entity data to CrowdStrikes centralized asset graph (SDMF) ensuring correctness and freshness for millions of identities - Optimize system performance - reduce enrichment latency improve throughput and handle traffic spikes gracefully - Mentor and elevate engineering talent sharing expertise in building production systems that work under pressure

Youll work on problems like:

• Processing and enriching millions of identity entities through a 100 provider dependency graph in real-time

• Building resilient Kafka consumers that handle cloud asset events at scale with exactly-once semantics

• Designing incremental computation strategies that avoid redundant work while maintaining data freshness

• Migrating critical services to Go for improved performance and resource efficiency

• Calculating identity risk scores by aggregating signals from AD privileges behavioral patterns and cloud permissions

Tech Stack:

• Go

• Java

• / JavaScript

• Python

• MongoDB Redis Kafka AWS

What Youll Need:

• 7 years of software engineering experience shipping production systems through complete lifecycles

• Proven expertise designing and building data-intensive services - pipelines enrichment engines or event-driven architectures at scale

• Strong proficiency in Go Java and (working across multiple stacks not just one)

• Experience with MongoDB Kafka and event-driven microservice patterns

• Quality-focused mindset - you ship reliable software that works in production at scale

• Strong collaboration skills - you work effectively across engineering product support and sales teams

• BS/MS in Computer Science or equivalent real-world experience

• Proven experience utilizing AI technologies to enhance decision-making streamline workflows and processes improve efficiency and drive business outcomes.

Bonus Points:

• Experience with Active Directory LDAP or identity/access management domains

• Familiarity with graph-based computation models (DAGs dependency resolution)

• Background in migrating legacy systems to Go

• Experience with risk scoring or entity resolution systems

This position is based in our Ramat-Gan Israel office and requires strong leadership presence and ability to work closely with cross-functional teams.
