What you'll do
In this role you'll have an opportunity to work on a number of different projects over the course of a year. These projects are critical to Cloudflare's success and will often be developed in incubation mode with a focus on agile and iterative delivery to prove and build value over time. A sampling of the areas you may get a chance to work on are a service to automate firmware updates, tools to manage our IP addresses and adding complex capacity dashboard functionality.
