About Product Management at Cloudflare

As a Senior Product Manager at Cloudflare , you are responsible for building products that improve the way that the Internet works. Product Managers at Cloudflare sit at the intersection of software development, design, and business strategy. We shape high-level product goals but also get our hands dirty. On an average day, you might pitch a concept to senior leadership, create a launch plan with marketing, work with designers to conduct user research, prototype a new feature, iterate on a spec, analyze usage data, or pair with an engineer on implementation. We have ultimate responsibility for understanding our client needs, influencing business strategy, feature specification, and working with engineering to develop our software.

As a Senior Product Manager within the Application Performance team, you will own a critical part of our comprehensive platform that ensures web properties, applications, and networks are fast, reliable, and intelligent. This portfolio spans foundational capabilities like CDN optimization and Origin Shielding, advanced low-latency application delivery, and customer-facing data products built on real-world usage. You will set the strategic direction for how Cloudflare eliminates latency and provides the authoritative source of truth on performance for applications running across our global network.

Role

As Senior Product Manager on the Application Performance team, you\'ll help shape a key part of our core product experience. This role requires navigating complex technical domains—from TCP / IP protocols and caching architectures to data analytics and user experience—and translating those into clear, marketable features. You will define the roadmap for one or more core services that impact every byte of traffic processed by Cloudflare. You will collaborate closely with engineering teams to leverage our massive network footprint and unique traffic insights to deliver features that fundamentally change how the internet operates, ultimately accelerating adoption for customers ranging from individual developers to the world\'s largest enterprises.

Responsibilities

• Own your space. You will own the priorities and scope, partnering with a high performing engineering team focused on one of Cloudflare\'s Application Performance products.
• Connect the pieces. Product managers are a nerve center at Cloudflare, responsible for connecting engineering, program management, marketing, revenue, and partners to make sure that our ships go out on time and with the maximum impact.
• Excel across teams. Enterprise capabilities cut across all of our product verticals, so you should be comfortable working with product managers across the company to prioritize systemic improvements that our enterprise customers need.
• Be customer obsessed. You will be responsible for directly engaging with customers and understanding how they use our products. You'll bring these insights back to the team to build a great roadmap.
• Be data driven. You should be comfortable working with data, and analyzing data to quantify the impact of problems and opportunities in your space.

What makes Cloudflare Special?

We\'re not just a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company. We\'re a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company with a soul. Fundamental to our mission to help build a better Internet is protecting the free and open Internet.

Project Galileo : Since 2014, we\'ve equipped more than 2,400 journalism and civil society organizations in 111 countries with powerful tools to defend themselves against attacks that would otherwise censor their work, technology already used by Cloudflare\'s enterprise customers at no cost.

Athenian Project : In 2017, we created the Athenian Project to ensure that state and local governments have the highest level of protection and reliability for free, so that their constituents have access to election information and voter registration. Since the project, we\'ve provided services to more than 425 local government election websites in 33 states.

1.1.1.1 : We released 1.1.1.1 to help fix the foundation of the Internet by building a faster, more secure and privacy-centric public DNS resolver. This is available publicly for everyone to use - it is the first consumer-focused service Cloudflare has ever released. Here\'s the deal - we don\'t store client IP addresses ever. We will continue to abide by our privacy commitment and ensure that no user data is sold to advertisers or used to target consumers.
