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!

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 massively 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.

What you'll do

In this role you will design, build, and ship AI-powered product features. You will often collaborate across disciplines by partnering with engineers, data scientists, designers, and stakeholders to integrate AI seamlessly into existing systems and workflows. As the landscape for AI continues to change you will be expected to stay current on emerging AI techniques and tooling, experiment rapidly, and bring forward ideas that are practical, maintainable, and impactful. Applying AI to existing products as well as new products will be an important part of this role and your ability to ship production-grade systems will be an expected requisite. On any given day you might be benchmarking various AI models, writing evals, collaborating with other AI teams on novel solutions, or developing a net-new product to release to Cloudflare customers.
