Senior Data Engineer (Austin, Hybrid) — Own the Data Lake at Cloudflare
The Role & Impact
Cloudflare's network handles trillions of requests per month, and the Data Intelligence & Analytics organization builds the core data platform that powers decision-making across the whole company. This is the team behind the data lake, ingestion infrastructure and platform tooling — the systems that transform complex datasets into fast, reliable, business-critical products used daily by go-to-market, product and engineering teams.
What You'll Build
- Large-scale data systems that sit at the intersection of data platforms, distributed systems and product development
- End-to-end applications that turn raw data into products people depend on every day
- Specialized data solutions for predictive modeling and machine learning applications
- Infrastructure that genuinely runs the business — not just pipelines that exist
You'll join the Austin team to help scale the development of Cloudflare's internal data products, with the freedom to own meaningful problems across the stack.
What You Bring
- Deep experience building and operating large-scale data systems and pipelines
- Strong engineering fundamentals: distributed systems, data modeling, and platform tooling
- A product mindset — you build for users inside the company who depend on your data being fast and reliable
- Curiosity and empathy: Cloudflare hires for potential and invests in your growth, whatever box you don't fit into
Why Cloudflare
A mission to help build a better Internet, a culture of iteration and AI-native curiosity, and recognition as a World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer and Entrepreneur Magazine Top Company Culture. You'll work with some of the biggest data volumes on the planet — from Austin, hybrid.
