San Francisco, California, United States Cloudflare, Inc. Full time
About Us

At Cloudflare, our mission is to build a better Internet. We operate one of the world's largest networks that powers millions of websites and other online properties for customers ranging from individual bloggers to Fortune 500 companies.

We protect and accelerate any online application without adding hardware, installing software, or changing code. Our network is powered by intelligent global infrastructure that gets smarter with every request. This results in significant improvements in performance and a decrease in spam and other attacks.

About the Team

Our Network Services product suite puts the connectivity, scale, and performance of Cloudflare's global network in front of customers' internal network infrastructure and private networks. Our team works with Rust, Go, Linux, and cloud technologies to build network operating systems and distributed cloud backends.

We are looking for engineers who are just as interested in building their own Linux-based OS as they are in cloud architecture, and just as interested in Rust as they are in Go.

The Magic WAN Connector

The Magic WAN Connector is a lightweight network operating system providing zero-touch connectivity to the Cloudflare network, extending the power of the Cloudflare global network to customer locations, and providing local network access to Cloudflare's cloud-native networking services at the Edge.

Connectors are deployed worldwide on certified networking hardware and virtual machines, and are managed via a cloud backend.

About the Role

We're seeking curious and empathetic engineers who are excited to join us in changing the way networking is done. Some of the things our team works on include:

  • A lightweight linux OS, with custom software written in Rust
  • A distributed cloud backend using Go, Kubernetes, and PostgreSQL
  • Release, Deployment, and Testing systems for various applications including operating systems and backend APIs
  • Debugging packet flows and IPsec tunnels that span the globally distributed Cloudflare network and globally distributed customer networks, often involving debugging of Linux kernel networking primitives - netfilter, nftables, eBPF, tc, network namespaces, etc
  • Partnering with some of the best engineers and product managers to solve big problems
Desired Skills and Qualifications

We're looking for individuals with:

  • Rust and/or Go programming experience
  • Broad networking expertise across L3-L7 networking flows and protocols
  • Experience designing and integrating RESTful APIs and backend systems
  • Experience building on top of Linux kernel networking primitives - netfilter, nftables, eBPF, tc, network namespaces, etc
  • Experience building and shipping highly distributed systems with best SRE practices
  • Experience with embedded OS build tools like Buildroot or Yocto
  • Able to work across teams and level common, sustainable solutions
  • Focus on clarity in written and verbal communication
Compensation

For Bay Area-based hires, the estimated annual salary range is $196,000 - $240,000. For New York City, Washington, and California (excluding Bay Area) based hires, the estimated annual salary range is $187,000 - $229,000. For Colorado-based hires, the estimated annual salary range is $168,000 - $206,000.

Benefits

Cloudflare offers a comprehensive benefits package to support you and your family. Our benefits include health and welfare benefits, financial benefits, time off, and more.

Why Cloudflare?

We're not just a technology company; we're a company with a soul. We're committed to protecting the free and open Internet. Our projects, such as Project Galileo and Athenian Project, demonstrate our dedication to this cause.

We also care about our employees and strive to create a positive work environment. If you're passionate about networking, innovation, and making a difference, we'd love to hear from you.
