Join Cloudflare's Testing at Scale team as a software engineer, developing tools for automated testing of distributed systems at large scale, with collaboration across engineering teams.
Available Locations: London or Lisbon
About the Department
Cloudflare's engineering teams build and maintain the systems and products that power our global platform. A global platform which is within approximately 50 milliseconds of about 95% of the Internet connected population, serving on average, over 46 million HTTP requests per second.
About the Team
Cloudflare engineering delivers code to production at a tremendous pace, and depends on automated testing to do so without incidents. The Testing at Scale team builds and runs tooling for other engineering teams, to allow them to write tests that verify the interactions between systems and products in production at huge scale.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for highly motivated software engineers to join our Testing at Scale team. You'll have a strong programming background with a deep understanding and experience developing and maintaining distributed systems. You'll need to be able to communicate effectively with engineers across the company to understand the behaviours of our systems and products in order to deliver tooling to meet their testing needs. You will also work closely with product managers to support our public facing synthetic testing and load testing products for enterprise customers.
Desirable skills, knowledge and experience
