Senior Solutions Architect at Cloudflare

About Us At Cloudflare, we are on a mission to help build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the world’s largest networks that powers millions of websites and other Internet properties for customers ranging from individual bloggers to SMBs to Fortune 500 companies. Cloudflare protects and accelerates any Internet application online without adding hardware, installing software, or changing a line of code. Internet properties powered by Cloudflare all have web traffic routed through its intelligent global network, which gets smarter with every request. As a result, they see significant improvement in performance and a decrease in spam and other attacks. Cloudflare was named to Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top Company Cultures list and ranked among the World’s Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company. At Cloudflare, we’re not looking for people who wait for a polished roadmap; we’re looking for the builders who see the cracks in the Internet that everyone else has simply learned to live with. We value candidates who have the instinct to spot a "normalized" problem and the AI-native curiosity to create a solution using the latest tools. Our culture is built on iteration, leveraging AI to ship faster today to make it better tomorrow, while ensuring that every improvement, no matter how small, is shared across the team to lift everyone up. If you’re the type of person who values curiosity over bureaucracy, and that AI is a partner in solving tough problems to keep the Internet moving forward, you’ll fit right in.

You’ll guide digital transformation by aligning business outcomes with Cloudflare’s technology platform—including our network, application, security, and developer services.

What We’re Looking For • 15+ years of experience in technical presales, enterprise architecture, or IT leadership (e.g., Chief Architect, CTO, CISO). • Fluent in both business and technology strategy: able to make ROI-driven business cases while diving deep into technical design. • Familiarity with transformation levers such as Zero Trust, cloud migration, developer productivity, and edge compute. • Strong experience working with modern application architectures (e.g., microservices, APIs, event-driven systems, CI/CD). • Exposure to developer-first platforms, serverless models, or edge computing frameworks (Cloudflare Workers, AWS Lambda, GCP Cloud Functions, etc.). • Comfortable engaging a range of personas—from infrastructure teams to app developers to the C-suite. • Confident in public speaking, customer workshops, and evangelizing new ideas internally and externally. • Bonus: Familiarity with frameworks like TOGAF, NIST SP 800-207, and cyber risk management principles. Preferred Qualifications • Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Security, or related field. • Experience in regulated industries (FSI, Government, Telco) or complex multi-cloud/hybrid environments. • Hands-on technical curiosity and the ability to learn continuously—especially across networking, application performance, security, and developer services.

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.
