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.

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.

About the Department
Emerging Technologies & Incubation (ETI) is where new and bold products are built and released within Cloudflare. Rather than being constrained by the structures which make Cloudflare a hugely successful business, we are able to leverage them to deliver entirely new tools and products to our customers. Cloudflare’s edge and network make it possible to solve problems at massive scale and efficiency which would be impossible for almost any other organization.
About the Team
We build products at the intersection of AI, search and retrieval, data insights, and product engineering.
As AI agents change how people discover and interact with the Internet, new problems are emerging around how content is found, understood, retrieved, and kept current. Cloudflare is uniquely positioned to help website owners make their content discoverable and to help agents find relevant, trustworthy information across our network. Building these capabilities requires solving problems across distributed systems, crawling, content ingestion, indexing, retrieval quality, developer experience, and reliable product delivery.
Cloudflare also has a unique perspective on how the Internet is changing. Our global network observes signals that can help us understand trends, identify when content changes, and measure the pulse of the Internet. Used responsibly, these signals could improve existing products, help customers and AI companies find fresher and more relevant information, and create entirely new capabilities and products. The opportunity is broad and still evolving. We need to deliver excellent products today while continuing to identify the problems Cloudflare is uniquely positioned to solve next.
We are a tight-knit group that communicates and collaborates regularly. We celebrate our achievements, support each other when we make mistakes, and hold each other and our work to a high standard.
About the role
We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead engineering across some of our AI and Internet Data Insights portfolio.
You will be responsible for the people, execution, and engineering quality behind products that help customers make their content discoverable and turn complex Internet signals into useful experiences. You will partner closely with Product Management and engineering teams across Cloudflare to deliver current priorities and shape future opportunities. This is a management role for someone who is deeply technically credible. You will not be expected to write most of the code, but you should be able to understand the systems your engineers operate, challenge architectural decisions, ask the right questions when something is going wrong, and step into a technical problem when the situation calls for it.
At the same time, we are looking for a manager, not a tech lead with direct reports. Your success will be measured by the quality and output of the team you build, the engineers you develop, and the systems and products they deliver.
This role may require flexibility to be on-call outside of standard working hours to address technical issues as needed.
What you'll do
Manage, coach, and grow engineers working across AI-powered search, Internet data insights, and customer-facing products.
Own execution by establishing clear priorities, creating predictable delivery, and giving engineers the context and autonomy to own meaningful areas of the product.
Lead the development of search and retrieval capabilities that help people and AI agents find relevant, trustworthy, and current content.
Partner closely with Product Management to understand customer problems, shape the roadmap, and turn broad opportunities into clear engineering outcomes.
Help identify how signals from Cloudflare's global network can produce useful and trustworthy insights for customers, partners, and other Cloudflare products.
Explore where Cloudflare's unique view of Internet activity can improve content discovery, enable new product experiences, or support entirely new products.
Balance near-term product delivery with thoughtful technical investments that allow promising ideas to grow.
Own the operational health of the systems in your area, including observability, incident response, data and search quality, and long-term reliability.
Develop technical leaders and create space for engineers to lead architecture and implementation.
Responsibilities
We want you to love it here. This role is a great fit for you if:
You have led and developed high-performing engineering team(s) and can point to what that team shipped and how the people on it grew.
You are technically credible with experienced engineers. You can review a design, understand the trade-offs in a distributed system or data platform, and recognize when a technical problem needs deeper investigation.
You are comfortable managing a team working across several related technical areas and can create clarity without requiring every problem to fit neatly into a single box.
You care deeply about reliability and quality, particularly when the output of a system is data that people use to understand the Internet.
You have strong product judgment and enjoy working with Product Management to decide what is worth building, what needs improvement and what should not be built at all.
You are comfortable with ambiguity and with finding structure in areas where the opportunity is clearer than the roadmap.

About the Role
R2 is Cloudflare's object storage platform, offering developers durable, reliable storage with zero egress fees that integrates seamlessly with Cloudflare's global network and Developer Platform. The R2 Gateway team owns the request-facing layer of R2 — the S3-compatible API gateway that every object put, get, list, and delete flows through. When a customer or application talks to R2, they talk to the systems we build and operate.
R2 is growing rapidly, and the gateway must evolve to keep pace. The team is responsible for the API surface that handles authentication, request routing, rate limiting, and coordination between clients and R2's storage and metadata layers — all while maintaining strict compatibility with the S3 API and delivering low-latency, highly available access at global scale.
You'll be joining a team that operates at the intersection of large-scale distributed systems, storage infrastructure, and edge computing — building request-path systems that need to be correct, fast, and reliable on every single call.
Responsibilities
Design, implement, and operate the S3-compatible API gateway that serves every R2 operation, ensuring correctness, low latency, and compatibility with the S3 API surface.
Build and operate production services on Cloudflare Workers and Kubernetes that handle high-throughput request traffic with strong availability and durability guarantees.
Own the request path end to end — authentication, authorization, routing, rate limiting, and error handling — and the interfaces between the gateway and R2's storage and metadata layers.
Own projects end to end: from design docs through implementation, testing, deployment, and production monitoring.
Continuously improve the reliability, performance, and observability of the gateway; ramp quickly into unfamiliar and legacy code paths and reduce operational toil.
Participate in on-call rotations, drive incident resolution, and write postmortems that raise reliability standards.
Use AI tools extensively to accelerate development, debugging, and operational tasks. We expect engineers to leverage AI as a core part of their workflow.
Collaborate across teams (storage infrastructure, metadata, networking, other platform teams) to coordinate API contracts, capacity planning, and cross-cutting initiatives.
Desirable Skills, Knowledge, and Experience
Strong programming skills in Rust, TypeScript, Go, or similar languages.
3-4 years of experience building or operating large-scale distributed systems on the request path, with strong latency and reliability requirements.
Familiarity with cloud infrastructure concepts such as object storage, HTTP/API gateways, edge computing, or service-oriented architectures.
Experience designing and operating high-throughput APIs — authentication, routing, rate limiting, and backward-compatible API evolution.
Understanding of reliability and observability practices: monitoring, alerting, performance tuning, and incident response.
Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to explain technical decisions clearly and coordinate across teams.
Comfortable working with AI coding tools as part of a daily development workflow.
Experience with the S3 API surface, or with Cloudflare Workers, Durable Objects, or edge computing platforms, is a strong plus.

About the Department
Cloudflare's Enterprise Integrations Engineering Team designs, builds, and maintains integrations across the SaaS applications used throughout the organization. We're increasingly applying AI, from agentic workflows to LLM-assisted development and automated diagnostics, to build integrations faster, operate them more reliably, and reduce manual toil across the team. Our mission is to create scalable, reliable, and intelligent systems that ensure data flows securely and efficiently between platforms, and to use AI as a force multiplier for how we design, build, and support that work.
Our team is highly collaborative, values continuous learning, and supports each other through shared ownership and open communication. We work closely with both technical and business teams, conduct regular retrospectives, and are actively evolving how AI tooling changes the way we plan, build, test, and troubleshoot integrations.
What You’ll Do
We’re looking for a Principal Engineer to establish technical direction across Enterprise Applications and help teams turn that direction into reliable, incremental delivery. You’ll design systems, lead complex cross-team initiatives, influence engineering practices, and remain hands-on with implementation where your contribution has the greatest leverage.
This role requires navigating ambiguity, adapting technical strategy as conditions change, and building alignment across engineering and business stakeholders. You’ll model responsible AI-assisted engineering, operational excellence, sound judgment, and attention to detail.
Responsibilities include:
Establish and communicate technical strategy across multiple teams, translating long-term direction into incremental delivery plans.
Lead complex, cross-functional initiatives from problem definition through architecture, implementation, deployment, and operation.
Influence technical decisions across teams through design reviews, prototypes, standards, mentoring, and hands-on contributions.
Build and extend AI-enabled systems, including agents, evaluation frameworks, MCP servers, and workflow automation.
Determine when AI is appropriate and when deterministic software offers a safer, simpler, or more reliable solution.
Establish practices for evaluating AI systems, including quality, reliability, security, cost, latency, and human oversight.
Improve engineering effectiveness through reusable platforms, operational tooling, automated diagnostics, and development workflows.
Partner with business and technical stakeholders to convert ambiguous problems into clear technical strategies and measurable outcomes.
Desirable Skills, Knowledge, and Experience:
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent work experience
10+ years of professional software engineering experience as a guideline
Proficiency in at least one backend language.
Experience with LLM APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI, etc.)
Experience with AI guardrails/governance best practices
Demonstrated experience delivering AI-enabled systems beyond experimentation. Candidates should be able to explain their individual contribution, evaluation approach, production constraints, failure modes, and measurable outcomes.
Demonstrated experience influencing technical culture and best practices without authority.
Familiarity with integration patterns (pub/sub, API-first, CDM, batch processing)
Experience working with stakeholders to solve business problems through integration or automation solutions
Experience building APIs with proper security and operational practices
Experience with observability tooling (e.g. Grafana, Prometheus, Sentry, Kibana, Splunk or similar)
Working familiarity with containerized/cloud environments (Kubernetes, or equivalent cloud-native experience)
Experience with serverless computing platforms (e.g. AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions, Azure Functions, or Cloudflare Workers)
Experience with GitLab or other CI/CD tooling
Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation for roughly one week every two months
Bonus Points:
Experience with business financial systems, such as Oracle or NetSuite
Experience with PostgreSQL
Experience with Cloudflare Developer Platform (Workers, Workflows, D1, etc.)
Experience with Go, Python and TypeScript

Take accountability for a suitable solution deployment strategy (Customer, Partner or Cloudflare Professional services) being an integral part of all proposals.
Customer Adoption & Value Realization:
Provide oversight to technical onboarding and implementation, but not execute the implementation, serving as the primary executive and engineering contact for the customer. Design structured migration and onboarding blueprints tailored to the customer’s environment (e.g. DNS migrations, Zero Trust rollouts, WAF tuning guidance), and act as the lead consultant for customer engineering teams, walking them step-by-step through configuration best practices. Partner with Account Executives to own discovery, demos, onboarding, technical health, risk, and expansion strategy. Proactively monitor customer health scores and telemetry to ensure rapid time-to-value, resolve integration bottlenecks, and reduce deployment risk.
Commercial Accountability & Expansion:
Carry a variable quota tied directly to new business acquisition and/or ongoing account growth. Be commercially accountable for ensuring deep platform adoption, retaining revenue, and identifying strategic cross-sell and up-sell opportunities based on product usage data. Lead technical Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) to translate platform capabilities into return on investment for C-level executives.
Trusted Advisory:
Act as a trusted technical advisor throughout the entire customer lifecycle, maintaining a continuous, deep relationship with key stakeholders from initial onboarding through maturity, renewal, and expansion. Provide thought partnership on architecture, AI control layers, security posture, and deployment confidence.

What you will do as a Customer Engineer
The Customer Engineer (CE) is the core driver of our technical go-to-market strategy: a trusted technical advisor and primary architect of the customer journey. You will bridge the gap between technical strategy and business value—guiding enterprise clients from initial pre-sales technical validation through onboarding, deployment architecture, and full lifecycle expansion. Sitting within the GTM organization and reporting to a Customer Engineering Leader, you will not hand off your customers once an initial agreement is reached. Instead, you will operate as a quota-carrying technologist, leveraging AI-augmented workflows to eliminate administrative toil so you can focus on high-value architectural design and driving measurable business outcomes across the entire customer journey.
Key Responsibilities
Technical Validation:
Partner closely with Account Executives to lead technical deep-dive discovery, capture business requirements, and map complex customer infrastructure - DNS, CDN, Zero Trust, Network Security, Workers - to fit-for-purpose Cloudflare architectures and bespoke solutions. . Define, scope, success criteria, and technical evaluations plans for Proof of Concepts (PoCs) and Technical Validations. Deliver tailored technical presentations, architectural diagrams, and demonstrations that show how Cloudflare solves specific performance, security, and reliability challenges. Proactively address complex technical objections, security compliance questions, and edge-case architectural requirements during the sales cycle. Take accountability for a suitable solution deployment strategy (Customer, Partner or Cloudflare Professional services) being an integral part of all proposals.
Customer Adoption & Value Realization:
Provide oversight to technical onboarding and implementation, but not execute the implementation, serving as the primary executive and engineering contact for the customer. Design structured migration and onboarding blueprints tailored to the customer’s environment (e.g. DNS migrations, Zero Trust rollouts, WAF tuning guidance), and act as the lead consultant for customer engineering teams, walking them step-by-step through configuration best practices. Partner with Account Executives to own discovery, demos, onboarding, technical health, risk, and expansion strategy. Proactively monitor customer health scores and telemetry to ensure rapid time-to-value, resolve integration bottlenecks, and reduce deployment risk.
Commercial Accountability & Expansion:
Carry a variable quota tied directly to new business acquisition and/or ongoing account growth. Be commercially accountable for ensuring deep platform adoption, retaining revenue, and identifying strategic cross-sell and up-sell opportunities based on product usage data. Lead technical Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) to translate platform capabilities into return on investment for C-level executives.
Trusted Advisory:
Act as a trusted technical advisor throughout the entire customer lifecycle, maintaining a continuous, deep relationship with key stakeholders from initial onboarding through maturity, renewal, and expansion. Provide thought partnership on architecture, AI control layers, security posture, and deployment confidence. Identify potential deployment risks or integration bottlenecks early, and provide remediation strategies to de-risk customer outcomes.
AI Orchestration & Workflow Automation:
Leverage AI agents, Large Language Models (LLMs), and internal platforms to automate routine tasks such as RFP/Security Questionnaire responses, sandbox provisioning, basic telemetry monitoring, and internal/external documentation, reclaiming your time for strategic customer advisory.
Education & Enablement:
Partner closely with the Enablement Team to design, build, and govern technical resources. Define, document, and educate both internal teams and customers on deliverables such as Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), architectural best practices, and technical guides to continuously raise the technical baseline across the organization.
Minimum Qualifications
Experience: Experience in a customer-facing technical role, such as Solutions Engineering, Customer Engineering, Professional Services, Sales Engineering, Technical Account Management, or as a Forward Deployed Engineer (years of experience required will vary based on Associate, Senior, Staff, or Principal leveling).
Architectural Mindset: Ability to white-board, design, and articulate complex enterprise network and security architectures clearly.
Consultative & Advisory Skills: Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate deeply technical concepts into business outcomes for both hands-on engineers and C-level executives.
Commercial Mindset: Proven track record of operating in a quota-carrying or revenue-aligned environment, with a strong understanding of SaaS metrics, business value translation, and enterprise sales cycles.
Communication: Exceptional presentation and stakeholder management skills, capable of bridging the gap between deep technical implementation details and high-level C-suite business strategy.
Technical Breadth: We do not expect every candidate to be an expert in every domain. Qualified candidates will demonstrate depth in at least four of the technical areas below:
Internet fundamentals: Deep understanding of how the Internet works, including OSI Model layers 1–7, BGP, GRE, TCP/UDP, DNS (authoritative and recursive), HTTP(S), and SSL/TLS.

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.
