Available Locations: Lisbon, Portugal
About the department
Cloudflare's Engineering Team builds and runs the software that handles trillions of requests per month. Product development covers both new features and functionality and scaling our existing software to meet the challenges of a massively growing customer base.
The Cloudflare Zero Trust group within the Engineering organization is taking on the mission of ensuring the people and teams within an organization can access the tools they need to do their job safe from malware and other online threats with the speed and reliability that Cloudflare is known for.
What you'll do
In this role, you'll help us build Cloudflare's Data Loss Prevention (DLP) product that helps customers of any size protect the data that powers their business. Whether credit card numbers, health records, trade secrets or other types of data, Cloudflare's solution allows organizations to focus on their business and stop worrying about applying bandaids to protect their data. The solution runs in-line with Secure Web Gateway, Cloud Access Security Broker and Remote Browser Isolation - layering Zero Trust access control and web filtering as part of a defense-in-depth approach to data security.
We are looking for a talented, experienced software engineer to join our team and help take our Data Loss Prevention product to the next level. You'll help us make our DLP product more efficient and more accurate, while also helping us build out more features. You'll contribute to the design and implementation of a Rust codebase that is deployed across Cloudflare's entire edge fleet, and in Kubernetes clusters in our core datacenters.
