Engineering Manager, Agentic Commerce

About Us

At Cloudflare, we are on a mission to help build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the world’s largest networks that powers millions of websites and other Internet properties for customers ranging from individual bloggers to SMBs to Fortune 500 companies. Cloudflare protects and accelerates any Internet application online without adding hardware, installing software, or changing a line of code. Internet properties powered by Cloudflare all have web traffic routed through its intelligent global network, which gets smarter with every request. As a result, they see significant improvement in performance and a decrease in spam and other attacks. Cloudflare was named to Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top Company Cultures list and ranked among the World’s Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company.

At Cloudflare, we’re not looking for people who wait for a polished roadmap; we’re looking for the builders who see the cracks in the Internet that everyone else has simply learned to live with. We value candidates who have the instinct to spot a "normalized" problem and the AI-native curiosity to create a solution using the latest tools. Our culture is built on iteration, leveraging AI to ship faster today to make it better tomorrow, while ensuring that every improvement, no matter how small, is shared across the team to lift everyone up. If you’re the type of person who values curiosity over bureaucracy, and that AI is a partner in solving tough problems to keep the Internet moving forward, you’ll fit right in.

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 hugely 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

We build the infrastructure that makes the web Payable, powering the future of machine-to-machine commerce.

Here at Cloudflare, agentic commerce is a core part of our vision for the Agentic Internet. As AI agents increasingly navigate, consume, and act on the web, standard payment and authorization models built for humans are breaking down. We are building tools that help make the new internet payable by giving our users the ability to take control over how AI agents pay for resources across the Internet.

Building these capabilities requires solving problems across high-throughput web infrastructure, low-latency transaction processing, digital wallets, and emerging agentic payment protocols. We bridge mainstream fiat commerce rails with decentralized protocols, enabling micro-payments at Internet scale. We’re looking for someone excited to deliver products so domain owners can control this experience, while identifying the problems Cloudflare is uniquely positioned to solve next.

We are a tight-knit group that communicates and collaborates regularly. We celebrate our achievements, support each other when we make mistakes, and hold each other and our work to a high standard.

About the role

We are looking for an Engineering Manager to build and lead the engineering team across Agentic Commerce.

You will be responsible for the people, execution, and engineering quality behind products that power machine-to-machine payments and monetization, such as our Monetization Gateway. You will partner closely with Product Management and engineering teams across Cloudflare to deliver current priorities and shape future opportunities. This is a management role for someone who is deeply technically credible. You will not be expected to write most of the code, but you should be able to understand the systems your engineers operate, challenge architectural decisions around payment rails and cryptographic auth, ask the right questions when something is going wrong, and step into a technical problem when the situation calls for it.

At the same time, we are looking for a manager, not a tech lead with direct reports. Your success will be measured by the quality and output of the team you build, the engineers you develop, and the systems and products they deliver.
