Technical Proposal Writer (Remote)
About the role
CrowdStrike is seeking an experienced Proposal Manager/Writer to join our Global Proposals Team as a key contributor supporting the development of proposals, questionnaires, and business development materials. The ideal candidate blends strong business writing with disciplined project management, has working knowledge of (or a strong appetite to learn) cloud security, and can quickly grasp the complexity of our market, our platform, and our customers' needs. This role operates in a high-volume, high-velocity request environment. Our team receives a steady and often unpredictable stream of concurrent RFIs, RFPs, RFQs, security questionnaires, and ad hoc content requests from Sales and partner teams across all regions. Success in this role requires the ability to triage and prioritize competing inbound requests, set realistic expectations with stakeholders, escalate capacity constraints early, and consistently deliver quality work at pace without sacrificing accuracy or compliance.
This is a remote position that can be based anywhere on the East Coast of the US.
Responsibilities
- Manage end-to-end RFI, RFQ, RFP, DDQ, and security questionnaire activity — from intake and qualification through final submission — to ensure on-time, compliant delivery
- Own a high-volume workload of concurrent proposal assignments and related tasks, applying sound triage and prioritization judgment in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
- Drive the proposal process end to end: build and enforce the schedule, hold contributors to milestones, and coordinate stakeholder and compliance reviews to provide final quality assurance against department, corporate, and legal requirements
- Review and analyze customer requirements; develop compliance matrices, response outlines, and schedules of events
- Participate in kickoff calls and win strategy discussions to clarify scope, understand the opportunity, and translate key messages and differentiators into clear win themes
- Coordinate contributions from cross-functional SMEs (Sales, Sales Engineering, Product, Strategy, Legal, Information Security, and others) to produce high-quality, compliant, and persuasive responses that position CrowdStrike to win
- Build customer-facing response templates and manage workflow through draft, review, and approval stages
- Prepare final deliverables for submission: format, proofread, and edit for accuracy, clarity, consistency, and readability
- Enable Sales and cross-functional teams on proposal best practices, intake processes, and policies
- Maintain and continuously improve the proposal content library, ensuring content is current, accurate, consistent, and reusable — reducing turnaround time on repeat and high-frequency requests
- Contribute to process improvement, automation, and content reuse initiatives that increase team throughput and scalability
- Assist in other departmental projects as needed
