WHY WORK WITH US? Because the team is incredible. A-players on the tech, design, and business side. Tons of talent without blustery egos or corporate politics. Every day is a joy.

We’re looking for exceptional front-end and full-stack engineers to join our dev team of 5. You’ll be responsible for helping to transform the business lending experience for over 25 million small business owners in America.

Projects our engineers work on include designing algorithms for instant risk assessment, creating intuitive and delightful user interfaces for our online loan application, and constructing dashboards for internal and customer use that resurface small business data in ways that can inform credit use and business growth.

CloudFlare | San Francisco, CA | Full Time | ONSITE

CloudFlare | London, UK | Full Time | ONSITE | VISA

We have new offices in both locations and are hiring for a lot of positions in engineering, security, and SRE.

The big languages in use here are Go, C, and Lua, though we also have some projects in PHP and are hiring there too.

Our positions are listed here: https://www.cloudflare.com/join-our-team

But... if you're a great candidate and a perfect fit for CloudFlare, then even if there isn't a perfect role for you advertised on the jobs page please apply anyway. We are growing so fast that we do hire the right people and we recognise that our jobs page can lag behind our ambition.

Special mention for all non-white, non-male candidates or those with jagged CVs ( http://www.georgeandersbooks.com/jaggedresume.html ) or lacking CompSci degrees... we really want to hear from you and you are encouraged to apply.

If you're thinking of applying but would like to speak to someone first then drop me an email with some info (github, CV, whatever) and let me know what you're interested in working on and I'll intro you to whomever is best suited to answer your questions. My email is dkitchen@cloudflare.com .

Finally, if you apply... read our blog to get a good idea what we do: https://blog.cloudflare.com/ . We're more than a CDN, and more than just security or DNS.
