As a global leader in cybersecurity, CrowdStrike protects the people, processes and technologies that drive modern organizations. Since 2011, our mission hasn’t changed — we’re here to stop breaches, and we’ve redefined modern security with the world’s most advanced AI-native platform. Our customers span all industries, and they count on CrowdStrike to keep their businesses running, their communities safe and their lives moving forward. We’re also a mission-driven company.

About the Role:
The Data Science team is expanding and is looking for an experienced executive to lead our agentic systems research & development. CrowdStrike’s cybersecurity data is one-of-a-kind: we process nearly a trillion behavioral events per day.


CrowdStrike’s Data Science organization is evolving and growing — we operate at the cutting edge where Machine Learning, Big Data, and Cybersecurity converge. We are seeking a Vice President to provide visionary leadership and drive the next generation of agentic systems research and development. This executive will do more than oversee high-impact technical teams; they will serve as a strategic bridge between business and technology, translating complex requirements into scalable, enterprise-wide solutions.

With access to one-of-a-kind cybersecurity datasets — nearly a trillion behavioral events processed per day — the VP will shape the future direction of data science at CrowdStrike. Success in this role requires exceptional communication skills and deep collaboration across the Data Science  organization, as well as with stakeholders across both CTO and non-CTO teams. You will align with SVPs, and ICs alike to set a bold vision, define success metrics, form strategic alliances, and champion the team’s innovations and needs. This is a highly strategic and influential role at the forefront of CrowdStrike’s agentic systems strategy.

What You’ll Do:

  • Work at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Threat Research

  • Work closely with subject matter experts in cybersecurity to understand analyst workflows and their security operations procedures

  • Lead the development of systems that automate analyst procedures using AI agents and devise systems that combine agents into increasingly complex workflows

  • Lead the research into new approaches to agentic planning

  • Collaborate and coordinate across Engineering, Data Science, and Managed Services teams

  • Establish robust operations for agentic systems

What You’ll Need:

  • A minimum of 12 years of experience is required in data science, computational research, or machine learning, with a demonstrated history of leading high-impact technical teams

  • Experienced leading teams building AI and agentic systems

  • Experienced in driving objective-driven data science projects

  • Familiarity with the cybersecurity domain

  • Demonstrated success in setting vision, influencing technical direction, and aligning cross-functional teams in dynamic environments

  • Strong leadership presence with excellent communication skills to engage across all organizational levels — from ICs to C-level executives
