About The Role

We announced Workers AI (along with a few other AI products), during our birthday week, in late September of this year. If you’re not familiar with Workers AI, you should check out our launch blog post. We built Workers AI to make ML accessible to all developers regardless of your familiarity with ML. You shouldn’t need a background in data science, building ML models, or deploying pipelines at scale to be able to leverage the power of the latest open source models to deliver beautiful AI experiences to your end users. So what is Workers AI? It’s an AI inference as a service platform, empowering developers to run AI models with just a few lines of code, all powered by our global network of GPUs. It's open and accessible, serverless, privacy-focused, runs near your users, pay-as-you-go, and it's built from the ground up for a best in class developer experience. You’ll be responsible for driving, building, and shipping everything needed to make Cloudflare the best place to run AI inference that “just works” out of the box.

What You’ll Do

• Drive the strategy, roadmap & represent your products across the organization
• Lead projects from ideation through launch, and continuing through ongoing maintenance and support
• Develop and nurture relationships with engineering and coordinate closely to ensure successful delivery of product
• Talk to developers (probably the most important)! You’ll need to be crafty and develop a playbook to find the right users to talk to. This might include diving into our BI tools to find specific cohorts that are worth talking to, engaging on our developer discord, or heading straight to Twitter or Hacker news to engage and build relationships with the community.
• Partner with other departments such as Product Marketing, Marketing, Community & Developer Relations, Sales, and Customer Support to drive adoption with and gather feedback from customers and prospects

• Delve into market research to drive new investments opportunities

• BS/MS in a technology field. 
• Professional product management experience (3-4 years) or previous founder
• Strong technical abilities. You are intimately familiar with modern software development practices used to build and deploy applications. You are capable of wading into the details & understanding engineering decisions’ impact on the product, but can also drive 30k foot view
• A desire to sweat the details and ship great developer experiences
• Experience using developer tools (such as source-control management tools, CLIs, etc)
• A love for talking to developers at organizations both large and small on a daily basis so that you can build and ship pro
