About The Role
Cloudflare’s Privacy Edge is a suite of tools that make it easy for site owners and developers to build privacy into their products, by default. In this role, you’ll be responsible for driving the roadmap for Cloudflare’s privacy-preserving marketing stack – working with the team that built Zaraz and shaping the analytics tools we build on top of it.
We expect you to participate and drive the cutting edge of growing industry trends in this space: the deprecation of third party cookies, private ad attribution, and GDPR, for example. A key part of this role is identifying (and shipping) new products that use Cloudflare’s privacy infrastructure and role as a trusted third party to push forward a more private Internet.
We’re excited about how we can use emerging cryptography and privacy technology to build analytics products that provide businesses with value without collecting sensitive data or tracking individual users. This involves building partnerships with small nonprofits to some of the largest tech companies. In the past few years, the team has shipped server-side content rendering, a consent management tool for Zaraz, partnerships with Apple and Microsoft to improve network-level privacy in some of the biggest consumer browsers, and a collaboration with Whatsapp to verify the authenticity of code served in their browser application.
The Team
Here at Cloudflare, privacy is core to what we do. This includes giving users more control over their data, working with browser and operating system vendors to reduce cross-site tracking, and/or building first-party, privacy-focused products for customers ourselves, we’re increasingly working to set the standard for the current state of privacy on the Internet.

What Makes Cloudflare Special?
We’re not just a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company. We’re a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company with a soul. Fundamental to our mission to help build a better Internet is protecting the free and open Internet.
Project Galileo: We equip politically and artistically important organizations and journalists with powerful tools to defend themselves against attacks that would otherwise censor their work, technology already used by Cloudflare’s enterprise customers--at no cost.
Athenian Project: We created Athenian Project to ensure that state and local governments have the highest level of protection and reliability for free, so that their constituents have access to election information and voter registration.
1.1.1.1: We released 1.1.1.1 to help fix the foundation of the Internet by building a faster, more secure and privacy-centric public DNS resolver. This is available publicly for everyone to use - it is the first consumer-focused service Cloudflare has ever released. Here’s the deal - we don’t store client IP addresses never, ever. We will continue to abide by our privacy commitment and ensure that no user data is sold to advertisers or used to target consumers.
