Description

About Us At Cloudflare, we are on a mission to help build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the world’s 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 World’s Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company. At Cloudflare, we’re not looking for people who wait for a polished roadmap; we’re looking for the builders who see the cracks in the Internet that everyone else has simply learned to live with. We value candidates who have the instinct to spot a "normalized" problem and the AI-native curiosity to create a solution using the latest tools. Our culture is built on iteration, leveraging AI to ship faster today to make it better tomorrow, while ensuring that every improvement, no matter how small, is shared across the team to lift everyone up. If you’re the type of person who values curiosity over bureaucracy, and that AI is a partner in solving tough problems to keep the Internet moving forward, you’ll fit right in. Available location: Singapore, Bengaluru Public Policy at Cloudflare Because of the scope, complexity, and diversity of Cloudflare’s work, our Public Policy team must be flexible, proactive, and collaborative. We work across multi-functional teams to present policy solutions, carry the Cloudflare narrative, and promote our brand externally. The APJC (Asia-Pacific, Japan & China) team helps the company anticipate regulatory challenges, advocates for Cloudflare on priority issues, and builds relationships with external partners. In a region with fragmented regulatory regimes, we address fast-moving issues across cybersecurity, AI governance, data privacy, and connectivity. About the Role Based in Singapore or Bengaluru, you will support the APJC Public Policy team across three core pillars: 1. Policy Analysis & Research Regulatory Tracking: Monitor and evaluate legislative developments across APJC Intelligence Mapping: Maintain internal knowledge databases and draft stakeholder maps covering government ministries, regional regulators, and industry bodies. Content Development: Assist in drafting talking points, policy narratives, position papers, and consultation responses for regional government stakeholders. 2. Policy Campaigns & Programmatic Work AI Advocacy: Support the execution of AI-focused policy programs and campaigns, identifying partnership opportunities with governments and civil society. Regional Engagement: Help coordinate Cloudflare’s participation in regional forums and multi-stakeholder organizations. External Representation: Help prepare materials for external events, meetings, and thought leadership pieces (e.g., company blog posts) to amplify Cloudflare’s regional voice. 3. Internal Operations & AI Innovation AI Tooling & Automation: Actively build and deploy AI-driven tools to streamline policy tracking, research, and internal reporting workflows. Cross-Functional Support: Provide real-time updates to Legal, Trust & Safety, and Sales teams, ensuring policy insights are translated into actionable business intelligence. Commercial Enablement: Compile localized materials to help sales and marketing teams respond to policy-related inquiries from regional customers. What We Are Looking For We are seeking an active, self-starting individual with a strong academic background and a deep curiosity for the intersection of technology and society. Minimum Qualifications: Current Student: Enrolled in a degree program in Law, Economics, Political Science, Public Policy, or a related social science field. AI Proficiency: Must be highly comfortable with AI tools and demonstrate the ability to actively build with AI (e.g., using LLMs for automation, data analysis, or workflow optimization). Available for a full-time 20-week internship, working from our Singapore or Bengaluru office 3-5 days a week from July - December. Preferred Qualifications: Prior internship experience within a technology company, trade association, or government agency working on digital policy. Familiarity with the specific regulatory landscapes of key APJC markets (e.g., India, Japan, Australia, or SE Asia). Proficiency in a second regional language (e.g., Japanese, Korean or Bahasa) is a significant plus to understand and deal with policy in ASEAN countries You can check out our internship blogs to learn more about our program and hear directly from our past interns. What Makes Cloudflare Special? We’re not just a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company. We’re a highly ambitious, large-scale technology 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. Here’s the deal - we don’t store client IP addresses never, 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. Sound like something you’d like to be a part of?
