About Us

At Cloudflare, we are on a mission to help build a better Internet. We protect and accelerate any Internet application online without adding hardware, installing software, or changing a line of code.

Why This Role Matters

At Cloudflare, we're building industrial-scale AI agents that support customers directly. This isn't research theater. Your code will power real customer interactions from day one, at global scale.

Role Intent

Ship production agents on the Cloudflare stack. Build, deploy, learn, repeat. Your code is the front door for Cloudflare customers.

What You Will Do

Build agents on Workers with Durable Objects for state and short term memory

Wire tools with the Agent SDK, MCP, and function calling

Use Vectorize, KV, R2, and D1 for semantic memory, cache, files, and config

Run models through Workers AI and AI Gateway; integrate third parties when needed

Create evals, guardrails, and audits. Measure, tune, re-ship fast

Build agents that summarize, propose fixes, and escalate cleanly to humans

Expose agent health and metrics in transparent dashboards. No mystery boxes

Integrate with queues and webhooks; publish events on Queues or Pub/Sub

Cut cost per case and time to first response. Prove it with data.

Take end to end ownership including on call for what you ship (with team support)

Design and maintain robust observability for distributed AI workflows, implementing structured logging and end-to-end tracing across async service boundaries to ensure visibility into agent reasoning and execution.

Architect security boundaries for agent-led operations; implementing secure credential handling, multi-layer approval gates, and fine-grained trust scoping for mutative actions.

Must Have

Demonstrated success shipping production systems. Repos and releases that show real work.

Strong in TypeScript or Rust on Workers. HTTP, queues, async, performance

Fluency with Durable Objects, KV or R2, and either D1 or Postgres

Hands on with model tooling. Prompt I/O, tool calling, evals, safety checks

Observability mindset. Logs, traces, metrics, redlines

Experience with a2a/multi-agent frameworks

Experience developing LLM evaluation frameworks; automated scoring systems, CI-integrated quality gates.

Nice to Have

Workers AI, AI Gateway, and Vectorize in production

Salesforce or Service Cloud experience. Webhooks and case APIs

Security depth. Prompt injection protection, secrets detection, PII handling

OSS agent frameworks. Know what to borrow and what to throw away.

How We Build

Align fast on what matters.

Divide and conquer. Own your piece.

Ship. Watch customers use it.

Learn and repeat.

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? We’d love to hear from you!
