About The Department
Emerging Technologies & Incubation (ETI) is where new and bold products are built and released within Cloudflare. Rather than being constrained by the structures which make Cloudflare a massively successful business, we are able to leverage them to deliver entirely new tools and products to our customers. Cloudflare's edge and network make it possible to solve problems at massive scale and efficiency which would be impossible for almost any other organization.

About The Team
Workers AI is Cloudflare's AI inference service, enabling customers to use a wide variety of AI models both within Cloudflare's Workers development platform and via API. The Workers AI team owns the whole stack that powers the product, from front-end development all the way to low-level inference code. Accordingly we're a team with a diverse array of technical skills, but everyone on the team is curious and passionate about the possibilities of generative AI.

What You'll Do

• Forward Deployed Machine Learning Engineers work closely with Cloudflare's customers to help them bring their AI applications to life on Cloudflare Workers AI. This will involve all of the following:
• Helping customers package and deploy models for Workers AI
• Adding new open-source models to the Workers AI model catalog to support customer initiatives
• Optimizing model deployment and performance
• Deeply understand and debug customers' generative AI applications

Examples Of Desirable Skills, Knowledge, And Experience

• Experience deploying generative AI models using popular open source libraries and inference engines (transformers, vllm, sglang)
• Comfortable with image generation pipelines including using diffusers library and comfyUI
• Experience implementing and optimizing generative AI models in pytorch
• Familiarity with popular application frameworks such as LangChain and Cloudflare agents
• Experience working directly with customers to meet their requirements is essential

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: 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.

Athenian Project: 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.
