Senior Product Manager, Signals & Data Products

Description

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.

Search engines spent two decades learning what the web is worth: which pages are fresh, which sources are trusted, what people actually use. That knowledge came from watching how humans moved through the web.

Agents break that loop. AI models are trained and grounded on the web, but they have little visibility into what's changed, what's authoritative, or what's been fabricated. Site owners have it worse: AI crawlers already request content anywhere from a hundred to tens of thousands of times for every visitor they send back, and most have no idea how, or whether, they show up in AI answers. Both sides of the market are flying blind.

Cloudflare sits in front of around 20% of the web and sees both sides of that exchange. Our team, the Agentic Internet team, is focused on making the web readable, discoverable, callable, and payable, built on open standards so no single company owns the rails. Signals & Data Products turns our network's view into products both sides can use: helping AI labs know what's fresh and trustworthy, and helping site owners see and shape how they show up in AI. Cloudflare believes in the open Internet, and we're in a position to help build the future where it thrives. Come help us make it happen! You can read more about some of our plans here and here .

Responsibilities

• Drive the strategy for Signals, our web intelligence feed, and shape where our data products go next
• Define what makes a signal worth paying for (freshness, provenance, trust, real-world usage) using data from Cloudflare's network
• Build for both sides of the market: data products for AI labs, and visibility for site owners into how AI models find, use, and cite them
• Explore what comes next, from knowledge graphs to measuring how sites show up in AI answers
• Deliver product specifications, prototypes, product positioning, and high-impact launches
• Partner with Engineering, Data Science, Research, and GTM to ship at high velocity
• Work with Partnerships and BD on data partnerships with AI labs and other large buyers
• Represent the product externally with users, customers, AI labs, developers, and more

Requirements

• 7+ years as a technical PM, with experience shipping data, search, ranking, or ML products
• Deep data fluency: you can reason about data quality, coverage, bias, and pipelines
• Experience building or selling data products or APIs (licensing, pricing, enterprise contracts) is a strong plus
• A builder: you get things done, can move quickly, and prefer 'show' over 'tell'
• A strong communicator who is comfortable with ambiguity
• Team oriented: you'd rather get it right than be right

Conditions

At Cloudflare, performance is about outcomes (what you did) and behaviors (how you did it). We value curiosity, humility, empathy, and doing the principled thing. Learn more about our values on our Careers page .

• 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 : 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.
