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.

About The Team
Join Cloudflare Security Automation Engineering Team, where we are pivoting from traditional "Security as Code" to "Security as Agents." Our mission is to build a self-healing, autonomous defense layer. We focus on:
● Agentic AI Orchestration: Building autonomous agents to manage end-to-end security workflows. ● Autonomous Security Assurance: Leveraging LLMs for automated vendor reviews and M&A due diligence. ● Active Defense: Continuous threat automation via intelligent helper agents. ● Intelligence for MTTR: Using Agentic AI to diagnose, triage, and remediate incidents in real-time on end points as well as overall Enterprise ● Compliance & Audit Readiness: Automating complex assessment flows and evidence gathering.
About The Role
As a Senior Security AI Engineer, you will be the technical architect for our Agentic AI roadmap. Your mission is to move beyond simple automation scripts and build a fleet of "AI Team Members"—intelligent helper agents that execute complex security algorithms, process flows, and assessment logic. You will leverage Cloudflare’s Workers platform to deploy agentic solutions that close critical security gaps and replace traditional third-party tooling with high- performance, proprietary AI workflows.
What You’ll Do
● Agent Architecture: Design and deploy multi-agent systems that follow complex security algorithms and assessment flows to automate manual SOC and Assurance tasks. ● Skill Engineering: Standardize agent capabilities by creating and maintaining skills.md files and specialized Markdown documentation that define agentic personas and execution boundaries. ● Workflow Training: Train and fine-tune LLMs to function as "helper agents" capable of executing autonomous AI workflows as integral members of the Security Engineering team. ● Infrastructure as Agents: Utilize Cloudflare Workers, Vectorize, and AI Gateway to build serverless, low-latency agentic architectures for real-time traffic analysis and remediation. ● Autonomous Assessment: Build and scale the engine for autonomous vendor security reviews and M&A assessments, transforming qualitative data into quantitative risk insights. ● Mentorship: Lead the transition for Developer and Automation Engineers into the AI space, fostering a culture of Agentic Security.
Requirements
● Experience: 4+ years in Information Security or Software Engineering, with at least 1+ years focused on AI Engineering, Agentic AI, or Advanced Automation using Opencode ● AI Expertise: Deep understanding of LLM orchestration, prompt engineering, and building agentic loops (e.g., LangChain, AutoGen, or custom frameworks). ● Agent Development: Proven ability to create agents from structured definitions (skills.md) and automate tasks that follow strict process/algorithmic flows. ● Cloudflare Ecosystem: Expert knowledge of Cloudflare Workers, KV, Durable Objects, and R2. Experience with Cloudflare AI tools is a significant plus. ● Languages: Mastery of Windsurf,Opencode or Rust. ● Security Domain: Strong grasp of Cyber Security fundamentals, including SIEM/SOAR logic, UEBA, and risk assessment frameworks. ● Technical Writing: Ability to document complex AI logic and "agent skills" in clear, executable Markdown files.
Preferred Qualifications
● Experience building custom Agentic AI solutions that have replaced enterprise-grade 3rd party security software. ● Background in M&A Security Due Diligence or Vendor Risk Management automation. ● Prior experience building edge-based security products or AI-driven log-push integrations. ● Certifications: CISSP or specialized AI/Machine Learning certifications.
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 released1.1.1.1 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 never, ever. We will continue to abide by ourprivacy commitment and ensure that no user data is sold to advertisers or used to target consumers.
