About Cloudflare's Engineering teams
Anytime we push code, it automatically affects the millions of Internet properties (powering websites, remote teams, APIs, mobile apps, etc.) running on our global network. Cloudflare's network is one of the largest in the world and spans over 300 cities in more than 100 countries. What's more, Cloudflare operates within 50 milliseconds of 95% of the Internet-connected population globally (for context, the blink of an eye is 300-400 milliseconds!). We are passionate about making the Internet more secure, reliable, and faster for everyone.
Cloudflare's Engineering teams build and run the software that handles the massive amount of traffic that flows through our network. In AI Gateway we proxied 9 billion AI requests, in Email Routing we forward 40 million requests per day and in Workflows we execute some 2 million instances per week! We also have teams that build the UI and control plane for our software, using modern patterns and libraries in a microservices-based architecture.
Technologies include: C/C++, Rust, Go, Lua, Nginx, Go, Python, Typescript, JavaScript and ReactJS.
