Résumé du poste

Cloudflare is hiring a Senior Distributed Systems Engineer to join the Data Localization team. You will design and operate backend services that enforce where customer data is stored and processed, across a globally distributed edge network.

You will work across the stack using Go and Rust, integrating residency guarantees with low-latency performance. Strong ownership and on-call experience are expected in this role.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional experience designing, building, and operating production distributed systems at scale.
• Strong proficiency in at least one system or backend language such as Go, Rust, or C/C++, and a willingness to work in others as the codebase demands.
• Practical experience with API design (REST or gRPC), relational databases, and asynchronous messaging or event streaming systems.

Responsabilités

• Design, build, and operate backend services that enforce regional boundaries on where customer data is stored, processed, and decrypted, across a globally distributed edge network.
• Contribute to end-to-end feature delivery write technical designs and RFCs, implement services and libraries, add tests and observability, drive rollout, and own the resulting systems in production.
• Partner with engineers on adjacent platforms, cryptography, networking, data, and product teams to integrate residency guarantees into new and existing surfaces without regressing performance or reliability for other customers.
• Reason carefully about failure modes, consistency, and blast radius; design systems that fail closed for compliance while degrading gracefully for availability, and make these tradeoffs explicit in design docs.
• Participate in on-call for your services, lead incident response and post-mortems, and continually invest in reliability, capacity planning, and cost.
• Raise the engineering bar through code review, mentorship, and clear written communication; contribute to the team's engineering standards and tooling.
