About The Role

Cloudflare is a global system on a mission to make the internet better, safer, and more powerful every day. To help fulfill this mission, we are seeking a Threat Event Analyst to join us in growing our Cloudforce One Organization, where you will be instrumental in building a proactive and threat intelligence-driven approach to protecting Cloudflare and its customers from sophisticated global threat actors.  This position is ideal for someone with a self-starter mentality, an investigative approach, and a passion for cybersecurity who thrives in a fast-paced environment where critical thinking and problem-solving are essential.

You will be responsible for conducting independent technical investigations, escalating complex findings to various Cloudforce One teams, and collaborating with threat researchers, intelligence analysts, and engineers to improve threat detection, tracking, and classification.
