About this Role

As Corporate Development activity scales, so does the need for strong operational infrastructure across the full lifecycle. We are seeking a Corporate Development M&A Integration & Operations Director to own diligence support and integration execution, build the systems and processes that make the team run, and maintain visibility across our investment portfolio through Falcon Fund, CrowdStrike's investment vehicle.

This is a high-impact role for someone who is comfortable driving a complex diligence process & post-close integration, and building the playbooks and tooling that make the next one faster. You bring structure to ambiguous situations, communicate clearly across all levels of the organization, and are energized by leveraging AI to build systems that scale.

What You'll Do

Bring an integration and operational lens into the diligence process: evaluate organizational fit, identify integration risks, review operational readiness, and flag issues that should inform deal structure or timing. Coordinate cross-functional diligence workstreams and synthesize findings into clear recommendations for deal leads.

Own integration planning and execution for acquisitions from late-stage diligence through steady state (including change management, employee retention planning, and organizational transition), translating the deal thesis into functional plans, owners, milestones, risks and decision points.

Partner closely with GTM Operations on commercial integration workstreams, ensuring alignment between deal intent and field execution.

Track integration KPIs and synergy realization against the original deal thesis, reporting milestones, progress, risks, blockers and recommendations to deal sponsors and executive leadership.

Run integration retrospectives and feed lessons learned back into future diligence, term sheet assumptions, and integration planning.

Establish the operational infrastructure for the full corporate development function: diligence templates, integration playbooks, and the data and AI tools that give the team better visibility and faster execution across all transaction types.

Apply AI-enabled workflows to standardize and improve integration planning, playbooks, governance cadences, and reusable templates for future transactions.
