What they're looking for

  • + years of hands-on security engineering experience, with significant time: owning edge, network, or perimeter security at scale.
  • Deep, production-grade expertise with Cloudflare's security stack including: WAF, DDoS, Bot Management, WARP, Gateway, and Access, covering rule tuning, incident response, and Zero Trust rollouts.
  • Strong network architecture skills across edge and cloud: TLS/mTLS, segmentation, egress controls, DDoS resilience, and AWS networking including VPC, Network Firewall, Shield, CloudFront, and NACLs.
