About Us
At Cloudflare, we have our eyes set on an ambitious goal: to help
build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the worlds
largest networks that powers approximately 25 million 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
Magazines 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
Cloudflares Engineering Team builds and runs the software that
handles over 25 million HTTP requests per second. We also build and
run the internal tools that build and run our software. The
Engineering Team is split into two groups: one handles product
development and the other handles operations. Product development
covers both new features and functionality and scaling our existing
software to meet the challenges of a massively growing customer
base. The operations team handles one of the worlds largest
networks with data centers in more than 250 cities worldwide.
Waiting Room is a new and exciting product at Cloudflare growing
everyday, across many countries around the world. Since the
emergence of the global pandemic, we have seen a massive shift in
in-person traffic within brick and mortar shops to all moving
online, leaving businesses unprepared to meet the demand. We are
helping solve truly impactful issues for our customers around
keeping customer infrastructures available, reliable, and resilient
against traffic spikes while maintaining a stellar user experience.
Come help us build amazing solutions for over 26 million internet
properties!

What Makes Cloudflare Special?
Were not just a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company.
Were 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 : We equip politically and artistically important
organizations and journalists with powerful tools to defend
themselves against attacks that would otherwise censor their work,
technology already used by Cloudflares enterprise customers--at no
cost.
Athenian Project : We created 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.
Path Forward Partnership : Since 2016, we have partnered with Path
Forward, a nonprofit organization, to create 16-week positions for
mid-career professionals who want to get back to the workplace
after taking time off to care for a child, parent, or loved
one.
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. Heres the deal - we dont 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.
