Design and build AI-powered product features, collaborating with teams to integrate and optimize AI solutions in existing systems and new products.
Available Locations: Austin, TX About the Department
Emerging Technologies & Incubation (ETI) is where new and bold products are built and released within Cloudflare. Rather than being constrained by the structures which make Cloudflare a massively successful business, we are able to leverage them to deliver entirely new tools and products to our customers. Cloudflare's edge and network make it possible to solve problems at massive scale and efficiency which would be impossible for almost any other organization.
What you'll do
In this role you will design, build, and ship AI-powered product features. You will often collaborate across disciplines by partnering with engineers, data scientists, designers, and stakeholders to integrate AI seamlessly into existing systems and workflows. As the landscape for AI continues to change you will be expected to stay current on emerging AI techniques and tooling, experiment rapidly, and bring forward ideas that are practical, maintainable, and impactful. Applying AI to existing products as well as new products will be an important part of this role and your ability to ship production-grade systems will be an expected requisite. On any given day you might be benchmarking various AI models, writing evals, collaborating with other AI teams on novel solutions, or developing a net-new product to release to Cloudflare customers.
