About Us

At Cloudflare, we are on a mission to help build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the worlds largest networks that powers millions of websites and other Internet properties for customers ranging from individual bloggers to SMBs to Fortune 500 companies. Cloudflare protects and accelerates any Internet application online without adding hardware, installing software, or changing a line of code. Internet properties powered by Cloudflare all have web traffic routed through its intelligent global network, which gets smarter with every request. As a result, they see significant improvement in performance and a decrease in spam and other attacks. Cloudflare was named to Entrepreneur Magazine's Top Company Cultures list and ranked among the Worlds Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company.

We realize people do not fit into neat boxes. We are looking for curious and empathetic individuals who are committed to developing themselves and learning new skills, and we are ready to help you do that. We cannot complete our mission without building a diverse and inclusive team. We hire the best people based on an evaluation of their potential and support them throughout their time at Cloudflare. Come join us!

About the Department

Cloudflare's Engineering Team builds and runs the software that handles large amounts of requests on the Internet today. We also build and run the internal tools and platforms that power that software. Individual engineering teams are typically responsible for large areas with considerable impact, and are able to execute autonomously within that space to deliver value to their customers—be they internal or external.

About the team and the role

The Engineering Platform and Productivity team has a charter to build a self‑service, resilient, and scalable platform using a combination of Open Source projects, intellectual property, and internal infrastructure. The charter includes building tools and services that help easily integrate a base set of capabilities into Cloudflare's products. These services have cross‑cutting concerns that 100s of fellow engineers use as the building blocks at Cloudflare. The team also writes services that are redundant for each product development team to build and that serve high volumes of requests every day.

As an engineer in the Engineering Productivity and Platforms organization, you'll be building and managing tools to help engineers deploy and operate the services that make Cloudflare work. Our mission is to provide a reliable, yet flexible, platform to help product teams release new software efficiently and safely. The role includes both software engineering and DevOps operational responsibilities. The ideal candidate will care deeply about providing other engineers with an excellent development experience.

What Youll Do

• Design and build developer productivity tooling including MCP servers and agents.
• Drive initiatives that make our engineers happier and more productive.
• Help respond and prevent incidents impacting core platforms.
• Harden the platform against security threats and resource contention issues.
• Improve our GitOps systems and practices.
• Work with app teams to understand their potential challenges and help them choose the best way to architect their systems.

Desirable skills, knowledge and experience.

What Makes Cloudflare Special?

We’re not just a highly ambitious, large‑scale technology company. We are a company with a soul. Fundamental to our mission to help build a better Internet is protecting the free and open Internet.

Project Galileo : Since 2014, we’ve equipped more than 2,400 journalism and civil society organizations in 111 countries with powerful tools to defend themselves against attacks that would otherwise censor their work, technology already used by Cloudflare’s enterprise customers—at no cost.

Athenian Project : In 2017, we created the Athenian Project to ensure that state and local governments have the highest level of protection and reliability for free, so that their constituents have access to election information and voter registration. Since the project, we’ve provided services to more than 425 local government election websites in 33 states.

1.1.1.1 : We released 1.1.1.1 to help fix the foundation of the Internet by building a faster, more secure and privacy‑centric public DNS resolver. This is available publicly for everyone to use—it is the first consumer‑focused service Cloudflare has ever released. We don’t store client IP addresses ever, ever. We will continue to abide by our privacy commitment and ensure that no user data is sold to advertisers or used to target consumers.
