Description

Join the Workers Deploy & Config team, the engine behind Cloudflare's unique serverless, edge-computing developer platform. This isn't just another backend role; you'll be building the critical, large-scale systems that empower developers worldwide to deploy everything - from a personal static site to full-stack applications serving millions of users.

In fact, you'll be building the very foundation that the rest of our developer platform,from Pages to R2,is built upon. You will tackle the complex challenges of distributed systems and high-traffic APIs every single day. Your mission? To build and scale the platform that lets customers upload, configure, and manage their Workers, ensuring it's incredibly fast, extremely resilient, and scales effortlessly.

You’ll drive projects from the initial idea to global release, delivering solutions at every layer of the stack. You’ll get to master a diverse and modern tech stack, writing high-performance Go, architecting APIs, optimizing storage interactions, building Workers with JavaScript/TypeScript, and managing it all on Kubernetes.

We're looking for engineers who are obsessed with the developer experience and thrive on solving large-scale problems with a track record to prove it. If you care as much about the quality of the user's experience as you do about the quality of your code, and you want to join a high-impact, fast-growing team helping to build a better Internet, we want to talk to you.

This role is about solving some of the most challenging problems in large scale, distributed systems. You'll be making a massive, direct impact on the broader developer community. Build & Architect for Massive Scale - Own the core architecture of the Workers control plane, the system that deploys and configures millions of applications globally.

Proactively identify and eliminate performance bottlenecks, re-architecting critical services to handle exponential growth. Design and implement resilient database schemas and read/write patterns built to support exponential platform growth and long-term usage.

Evolve our services into a true developer platform, building the foundational capabilities that unlock future products.

Drive for Extreme Performance & Reliability - Obsess over the developer experience, with a relentless focus on reducing API latency and increasing API availability.

Own the reliability of one of Cloudflare’s most critical, customer-facing systems. Take pride in production ownership by participating in an on-call rotation to ensure our platform is always on.

Lead, Collaborate, & Innovate - Partner directly with Product Managers and customers to translate complex problems into simple, elegant, and scalable solutions.

Lead technical design from the ground up, collaborating with a brilliant, globally-distributed team of engineers.

Act as a mentor and knowledge-sharer, leveling up the entire team.

Constantly research, prototype, and introduce cutting-edge technologies to solve new classes of problems.
