About Us

At Cloudflare, we are on a mission to help build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the world’s largest networks that powers millions of websites and other Internet properties for customers ranging from individual bloggers to SMBs to Fortune 500 companies. Cloudflare protects and accelerates any Internet application online without adding hardware, installing software, or changing a line of code.

Internet properties powered by Cloudflare all have web traffic routed through its intelligent global network, which gets smarter with every request. As a result, they see significant improvement in performance and a decrease in spam and other attacks. Cloudflare was named to Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top Company Cultures list and ranked among the World’s Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company.

At Cloudflare, we’re not looking for people who wait for a polished roadmap; we’re looking for the builders who see the cracks in the Internet that everyone else has simply learned to live with. We value candidates who have the instinct to spot a “normalized” problem and the AI-native curiosity to create a solution using the latest tools. Our culture is built on iteration, leveraging AI to ship faster today to make it better tomorrow, while ensuring that every improvement, no matter how small, is shared across the team to lift everyone up.

If you’re the type of person who values curiosity over bureaucracy, and that AI is a partner in solving tough problems to keep the Internet moving forward, you’ll fit right in.

London

As part of the Cloudflare Infrastructure Engineering organization, our platform SREs are primarily responsible for production reliability. SREs are based in locations in Asia, Europe and the US enabling follow the sun coverage during daytime hours.

SREs are supported by all engineering teams at Cloudflare who participate in on call schedules for their services. The SRE teams facilitate remediation and follow up of production issues and mature the tooling to enable all engineering teams to self-service on production. Incident follow up work across all engineering teams is prioritized above product innovation and the impact of production incidents influences the priority.

SREs support two main environments:
Edge SRE are focused on edge distribution where most client traffic is served. Core SRE are focused on the core services like control plane, data pipeline and other supporting supporting services

We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead the Edge SRE team in London. You will lead and develop a team of SREs that are responsible for Cloudflare edge production and building the tools for all teams to understand and interact with it. You will play a lead role in driving our Platform initiatives for edge services and will be tasked with leading engineers who build tools and best practices for engineering teams to debug in production, measure availability and performance indicators, track and report on thresholds.
