About the Role

This role is for the Senior Engineering Manager of the Threat Application Services team within Cloudforce One's Engineering organization.

You will lead a team of high-performing engineers dedicated to building and scaling the Cloudforce One Threat Events platform, our external Threat Intel APIs, and the backend systems that integrate Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) directly into products like WAF and Gateway for automated mitigation.

You will also lead hiring efforts to expand our engineering capabilities as we build the next generation of agentic threat intelligence tools.

Responsibilities

  • You will be responsible for the architectural direction and operational excellence of the services owned by your team, ensuring our intelligence platforms meet the latency and reliability requirements of Enterprise security operations.
  • You will drive the professional development of your direct reports and collaborate with product managers and security researchers to turn complex threat data into intuitive, automated customer experiences.
  • You thrive in a fast-paced environment where software engineering meets security research.
  • You have experience delivering scalable distributed systems, managing complex data pipelines, and leading teams through the transition from "getting things done" to building world-class, reliable products.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of Software Development experience, with a focus on Go, JavaScript, or distributed systems.
  • Led high-performing engineering teams for over 8 years, responsible for architectural direction and operational excellence of large-scale distributed security platforms (e.g., Threat Intel APIs, automated mitigation systems).
  • Proven ability to manage technical debt, drive professional development through strong mentorship, and excel at planning and execution to deliver predictable, world-class products in a high-growth environment.
  • Experience with AI-assisted development and agentic AI workflows.
  • Prior experience building high-performance APIs or platforms for threat intelligence, security operations, or large-scale data analytics.
  • Understanding of the Cyber Kill Chain and how to automate the ingestion and distribution of IOCs (IPs, domains, hashes, JA3/4 fingerprints).
  • Experience with edge computing (e.g., Workers), SQL-at-the-edge (D1/SQLite), and building systems that scale to handle trillions of signals.

Benefits

  • Equity participation in Cloudflare's equity plan
  • Comprehensive health and welfare benefits, including medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Flexible spending accounts and commuter spending accounts
  • Fertility and family forming benefits
  • On-demand mental health support and Employee Assistance Program
