About the Role

CrowdStrike's Exposure Management portfolio is redefining how organizations understand and reduce real-world risk. We are seeking a Sr. Program Manager to support this team in the next phase of growth.


In this role, you will own the delivery of complex, cross-functional programs for your area, from scoping and planning through feature release. You will partner directly with engineering leaders, product managers, and developers across a global team, ensuring timely delivery against the roadmap. You will also work across UX, Cloud, Sensor, Content, and other product groups to surface dependencies early and drive critical issues to resolution.


This role is a hybrid work setup involving 2-3 days in-office at our Sunnyvale, CA location.



What You'll Do


  • Drive end-to-end program execution for your area, working with engineering leaders to define scope, build the program plan, set milestones, and deliver against the roadmap.
  • Create and drive schedules from major phases down to detailed tasks, working with development managers on assignments and tracking progress.
  • Identify, manage, and resolve cross-team dependencies and risks, and escalate with clear options and recommendations when needed.
  • Collaborate with staff and management across worldwide business units (including subject matter experts, product management, design teams, and technology teams) to clearly communicate project goals, expectations, and each team's role.
  • Help leaders make informed decisions by turning complex technical discussions into clear action items, trade-offs, and next steps.
  • Partner with teams at every level, from working through details with developers to giving concise summaries to executives.
  • Proactively manage daily/weekly project communication and status reporting.
  • Lead Scrum meetings and follow up on meeting minutes and action items.
  • Drive continual improvement in team processes, share best practices, and guide teams without dictating implementation. Mentor other program managers where it helps.

What You'll Need


  • 8+ years of program or project management experience in software development.
  • Experience owning a large program or portfolio of products or features, scoping requirements, planning milestones, and serving as an active resource for technical teams.
  • Proven experience using AI to enhance decision-making, streamline workflows and processes, improve efficiency, and drive business outcomes.
  • Proficiency with purpose-built project management AI features to expedite backlog prioritization, summarize meeting notes, manage dependencies, and identify risk. 
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, including the ability to adapt your message from developer to executive audiences.
  • Strong command of Agile/Scrum and the software development lifecycle. Scaled Agile experience is a plus.
  • Proficiency in Jira (queries, ticket and board creation, facilitation) and Confluence.
  • Exposure to vulnerability management products and similar complex, interdependent technologies is preferred but not required.
  • A track record of working through persistent obstacles rather than around them, and of making sound, timely decisions with attention to detail.
  • Comfort in a collaborative, consensus-driven environment built on honest and open communication.
  • Initiative and self-direction in a fast-paced, fast-changing environment.
  • Proven experience utilizing AI technologies to enhance decision-making, streamline workflows and processes, improve efficiency and drive business outcomes.

Required in Lieu of a Cover Letter


Tell us what a day in your program management life looks like and what would make you a valuable addition to CrowdStrike's Program Management team. Then tell us about one project that required your leadership to turn around a potential failure. Start with a short paragraph on the problem the project set out to solve, followed by no more than 10 bullets on the specific actions you took that led to a successful outcome.

About CrowdStrike

CrowdStrike was founded in 2011 to fix a fundamental problem: The sophisticated attacks that were forcing the world’s leading businesses into the headlines could not be solved with existing malware-based defenses. Founder George Kurtz realized that a brand new approach was needed — one that combines the most advanced endpoint protection with expert intelligence to pinpoint the adversaries perpetrating the attacks, not just the malware. There’s much more to the story of how Falcon has redefined endpoint protection but there’s only one thing to remember about CrowdStrike: We stop breaches.
