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. 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! Position Location: Austin, TX | Lisbon, Portugal | London, UK Role Summary Join the Workers Deploy & Config team, the engine behind Cloudflare's unique serverless, edge-computing developer platform. This isn't just another backend role; you'll be building the critical, large-scale systems that empower developers worldwide to deploy everything - from a personal static site to full-stack applications serving millions of users. In fact, you'll be building the very foundation that the rest of our developer platform—from Pages to R2—is built upon. You will tackle the complex challenges of distributed systems and high-traffic APIs every single day. Your mission? To build and scale the platform that lets customers upload, configure, and manage their Workers, ensuring it's incredibly fast, extremely resilient, and scales effortlessly. You’ll drive projects from the initial idea to global release, delivering solutions at every layer of the stack. You’ll get to master a diverse and modern tech stack, writing high-performance Go, architecting APIs, optimizing storage interactions, building Workers with JavaScript/TypeScript, and managing it all on Kubernetes. We're looking for engineers who are obsessed with the developer experience and thrive on solving large-scale problems with a track record to prove it. If you care as much about the quality of the user's experience as you do about the quality of your code, and you want to join a high-impact, fast-growing team helping to build a better Internet, we want to talk to you. Role Responsibilities This role is about solving some of the most challenging problems in large scale, distributed systems. You'll be making a massive, direct impact on the broader developer community.

Proactively identify and eliminate performance bottlenecks, re-architecting critical services to handle exponential growth. Design and implement resilient database schemas and read/write patterns built to support exponential platform growth and long-term usage. Evolve our services into a true developer platform, building the foundational capabilities that unlock future products. Drive for Extreme Performance & Reliability Obsess over the developer experience, with a relentless focus on reducing API latency and increasing API availability. Own the reliability of one of Cloudflare’s most critical, customer-facing systems. Take pride in production ownership by participating in an on-call rotation to ensure our platform is always on. Lead, Collaborate, & Innovate Partner directly with Product Managers and customers to translate complex problems into simple, elegant, and scalable solutions. Lead technical design from the ground up, collaborating with a brilliant, globally-distributed team of engineers. Act as a mentor and knowledge-sharer, leveling up the entire team.

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?
