As the Engineering Manager for the R2 Gateway team, you will own the developer experience of R2.
You will lead and grow the team, setting technical direction and hiring to expand.
Your team is responsible for a wide surface area, from API compatibility and Workers integration to data migration and custom domains, and you'll thrive on navigating across these domains.
You will be the face of R2 for developers: engaging with customers in chat, joining calls with R2's largest accounts, writing blog posts, and often being the go-to person for internal teams building on R2.
You will drive a roadmap that balances feature delivery with the reliability and performance work that keeps R2 trustworthy, shipping features that leverage Cloudflare's global network in ways other object stores cannot.

Minimum 5 years of software engineering experience, with experience building or operating developer-facing data systems (object stores, databases, message queues, or similar).
Experience leading engineering teams, either as a manager or as a senior technical lead. We are open to both experienced managers and strong engineers stepping into management.
A track record of shipping developer-facing features where API design, ergonomics, and migration experience meaningfully impacted adoption.
Comfort engaging directly with developers through customer calls, community forums, blog posts, or open-source. You're energized by understanding how developers actually use your product.
Familiarity with distributed systems concepts. The Gateway codebase is primarily TypeScript on Cloudflare Workers, with Go in adjacent services.
