About Product Management At Cloudflare
As Product Manager for Cloudflare Spectrum , you will drive the strategy and roadmap for Cloudflare's industry-leading TCP/UDP proxy and Layer 4 security offering. Spectrum extends the power of our global network to protocols beyond enabling customers to securely and reliably accelerate non-web applications like SSH, gaming servers, custom financial protocols, and IoT devices.
You will be responsible for identifying high-growth use cases, prioritizing features that enhance performance, security, and developer experience, and ensuring Spectrum remains the most flexible and robust solution for proxying arbitrary TCP/UDP traffic at scale.
As Product Manager on the Spectrum team , you’ll help shape a key part of our core product experience. This role requires a candidate who can navigate complex technical domains—from TCP/IP protocols and caching architectures to data analytics and user experience—and translate those into clear, marketable features. You will collaborate closely with engineering teams to leverage our massive network footprint and unique traffic insights to deliver features that fundamentally change how the internet operates, ultimately accelerating adoption for customers ranging from individual developers to the world's largest enterprises.
You will own the priorities and scope, partnering with a high performing engineering team focused on one of Cloudflare’s Application Performance products.
Product managers are a nerve center at Cloudflare, responsible for connecting engineering, program management, marketing, revenue, and partners to make sure that our ships go out on time and with the maximum impact.
Excel across teams. Enterprise capabilities cut across all of our product verticals, so you should be comfortable working with product managers across the company to prioritize systemic improvements that our enterprise customers need.
Be data driven. You should be comfortable working with data, and analyzing data to quantify the impact of problems and opportunities in your space.
At Cloudflare, Product Managers are measured both on outcomes (“the what”) and how they accomplish results. You don’t need a CS degree but building credibility with our engineering teams is critical and so some history of technical acumen is a key part of the role.

Bonus points
Prior experience as a Product Manager driving the roadmap for products focused on Edge infrastructure, high-performance web delivery, or network optimization

Project Galileo : Since 2014, we've equipped more than 2,400 journalism and civil society organizations in 111 countries 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.
: In 2017, we created the 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. Since the project, we've provided services to more than 425 local government election websites in 33 states.
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.
