Cloudflare is on a mission to help build a better Internet, and they are seeking a Threat Intelligence Software Engineer for their Cloudforce One team. This role involves owning the software development lifecycle for systems that support cyber threat disruption and legal response efforts, translating complex requirements into scalable applications.
Responsibilities:
- While the majority of our services are now written in Golang and TypeScript, you will also work with technologies such as Rust, Kafka, Redis, Kubernetes, Terraform, Temporal and PostgresSQL.

- Collaborate closely with Threat Intelligence, Trust & Safety, Legal, and Product teams to understand goals and translate complex technical requirements into elegant, scalable solutions
- Improve system design and architecture to ensure stability, performance, and maintainability of both internal and customer-facing compliance and security services
- Analyze, communicate, and help prioritize complex technical concepts across teams
- Ongoing monitoring and maintenance of production services, including participation in on-call rotations
- Mentor and guide other developers in the team, helping to build collective technical expertise and promote best practices for writing well-tested, modular, and reusable code
