CloudFlare
Position Title:
Frontend Engineer, Media Platform
Available Locations: Austin, TX About the Department Media Platform is part of Emerging Technologies & Incubation (ETI), 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. Cloudflares 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 role We are seeking a skilled Frontend (UI) Platform Engineer to join our team. Youll be responsible for all Media Platform components of the Cloudflare Dashboard: Images, Stream and Realtime. You will also build and maintain media‑specific standalone UI components and applications, e.g. video players, media upload tools and web conferencing solutions. Media applications push performance and usability requirements to the limit.
Technologies we use React, TypeScript, JavaScript (ES6+), React Router, PlayWright, Selenium, Vite, Webpack, Bazel, CI/CD tools, Go, RESTful APIs, HLS/DASH, WebRTC, MoQ.
Qualifications
We want someone who understands and obsesses over front‑end systems.
4+ years of experience in frontend engineering, specializing in JavaScript, TypeScript, and React.
Strong knowledge of UI infrastructure, CI/CD, and testing frameworks (e.g., Playwright, Cypress).
Proven ability to drive projects independently, from concept to implementation.
Bonus skills
Video streaming and web playback.
Browser media APIs.
Realtime communication protocols and/or video conferencing, e.g. WebRTC.
Experience building and scaling large‑scale web applications.
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.
