About Cloudflare
At Cloudflare, our mission is bold yet simple: to help build a better Internet. Our global network handles trillions of requests each month, protecting and accelerating applications without added hardware, software, or code changes. Our Developer Platform, including Workers, Workers AI, R2, KV, Durable Objects, and Pages, empowers developers to build and deploy applications globally, faster than ever before.
About the Team
The Developer GTM organization is a startup within Cloudflare, driving how we attract, inspire, and grow the next generation of builders. We are redefining what developer acquisition looks like in a world where AI and distributed agents are reshaping the stack. Our mission is to create new pathways for developers to discover Cloudflare, whether through ecosystem partnerships, high impact content, or creative field engagement.
We are builders, storytellers, and connectors united by one goal: to make Cloudflare the most exciting place for developers to build.
About the Role
The Senior Partner Strategy Manager will own the full acquisition strategy for Cloudflare's developer ecosystem, uniting our community and demand generation engines into a single, high velocity motion. This leader will oversee how we capture startups, venture capital networks, and student builders, while also driving our demand generation and field marketing machines to convert awareness into adoption within strategic tech communities.
This is not a traditional marketing role; it is about engineering growth through ecosystems. You will define how Cloudflare reaches developers where they live, play, and build.
