About The Role
A Security Operations Center (SOC) is typically something that a company will have to understand their systems' security risks and alert when any issues arise. We want to enable SOC teams to leverage Cloudflare data, logging, and events directly in Cloudflare's dashboard. This means we want to add new functionality to understand and react to any threats. This role is all about dealing with large amounts of data and helping customers understand it very quickly, as well as notifying customers about important happenings on that data.
You will be working on systems that span multiple disciplines from databases to queues to search. We'll be not only processing data as it streams through but also allowing customers to search recent records, take actions inline, and document their entire process. As one of the founding engineers on the team you'll have a large influence on the architecture and will help decide the features and functionality of the product.
Cloudflare is a system spanning the globe, on a mission to make the Internet better, safer, and more powerful every day. As a Software Engineer at Cloudflare, you'll work on the code that runs close to the end user, runs at a massive scale, and is deployed to 330+ cities around the world.
