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 Role
Search is being rebuilt around AI. People increasingly get answers from AI instead of a list of links, agents run dozens of searches to answer a single question, and more than half of the traffic reaching sites on Cloudflare is now automated . Search is shifting from a destination to a utility, and Cloudflare is building the search layer for this agentic Internet.
Agentic Search at Cloudflare gives agents everything they need to find information, whether it lives in a customer’s own data or on the open web. It spans two products: AI Search for internal data, and Web Search API for the open web.
AI Search (internal data), now generally available , is the search primitive for applications and agents . It is a fully managed indexing and retrieval pipeline built on Workers AI , Vectorize , R2 , and Browser Run . Developers connect a website or R2 bucket, or upload their own files, and query them with natural language through a Workers binding, REST API, or MCP server. Under the hood: continuous indexing, hybrid vector and keyword retrieval, reranking, metadata filtering, native multimodal (image) embeddings, and OCR for scanned documents. We use it to power search on our own blog and developer docs.
Web Search API (external data), now in open beta , gives agents real-time web context with a single API call. It runs on AI Gateway , so every search gets the same logging, analytics, billing, and access controls as model inference. Developers can choose from multiple search providers and always get results back in one normalized format.
Your mission in this role is to make Cloudflare the default place developers and agents go to search, across both their own data and the open web, and eventually in a single call. You’ll also help build a search ecosystem that works for AI companies, site owners, and creators alike.
