What You'll Do

We are looking for an Engineer Manager to lead the Zero Trust team working on WARP’s edge service, which uses Cloudflare’s global network to securely route tunnelled traffic from millions of devices running WARP to the Internet.

You will play a key role in shaping the team’s engineering strategy, working with other engineering teams, product management, and external stakeholders to implement customer-impacting features and meet the team’s ambitious goals of quality, reliability, and high-availability. You will work closely with your team to maintain the code quality and to build solid, testable, and well-documented code.

As a manager in our team, you will be expected to lead, inspire, and foster a culture of diversity. You will communicate clearly and with empathy, and work towards building a cohesive and collaborative team. You will be expected to interact with our customers and internal stakeholders, to identify gaps and areas of improvements in our product and processes alike, and to work with your own stakeholders to transform those into innovative, actionable, and achievable solutions.

The team predominantly uses Rust to implement high-performance networking code that runs on our Linux-based edge. You will be most successful in this role if you have a strong understanding of networking protocols (IP, TCP, UDP, DNS, QUIC, H/3, proxying, etc.) and operational principles (observability, alerting, tracing, incident management, SLIs & SLOs, capacity planning, etc.)

Examples of desirable skills, knowledge, and experience

  • Demonstrable experience leading a geographically distributed team
  • Empathetic, proactive, and constructive communication skills, verbal and written
  • Excellent operational principles (observability, alerting, tracing, incident management, SLIs & SLOs, capacity planning, etc.)
  • Excel at planning, and overseeing execution to meet commitments and deliver with predictability
  • A strong understanding of how VPN technologies work, and the trade-offs between privacy, security, and anonymity
  • Strong understanding of networking protocols (IP, TCP, UDP, DNS, QUIC, H/3, proxying, etc.)
  • Good understanding of, and experience with, security protocols and standards
  • Good experience with debugging network-related problems
