Forward Deployed Engineer, Hebrew speaker

About The Role

Cloudflare’s Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) operate at the intersection of product engineering and customer impact. As an FDE, you will be embedded within one of Cloudflare’s most strategic global customers, working side‑by‑side with their engineering teams to build and deploy solutions using Cloudflare’s platform. Unlike traditional Solutions Architects or consultants, you will write production code, shape technical architecture, and directly influence how Cloudflare products are used at massive scale. You will operate as a technical extension of both organizations – helping the customer ship faster while surfacing real‑world product insights back to Cloudflare engineering.

Available Locations

London (hybrid), the Netherlands (remote), Paris, or Munich.

This Role Is Ideal For Engineers Who Want To

• Stay deeply technical
• Work on real production systems
• Influence product direction
• Build long‑term partnerships with world‑class engineering teams

Responsibilities

• Serve as the dedicated, long‑term technical partner within a strategic customer’s engineering organization, operating as a trusted extension of their team.
• Design, build, and deploy production‑ready code and configurations directly into customer infrastructure using the Cloudflare platform.
• Own the account’s technical success across the entire Cloudflare portfolio – serving as the primary technical point of contact, with other Cloudflare technical resources taking direction from your technical strategy for the account.
• Participate in customer engineering rituals, including daily standups, design reviews, and real‑time incident response.
• Identify opportunities to accelerate the adoption of Cloudflare services, unlocking new capabilities across the customer’s tech stack.
• Maintain deep technical competence in building production applications on a modern stack, while also being ready to go deep on all Cloudflare product areas from Workers to security, networking, and observability.
• Surface real‑world edge cases and product gaps directly to Cloudflare’s Product and Engineering teams to influence the developer platform roadmap.
• Establish and maintain trusted technical relationships with senior leadership (Staff+ engineers, Directors, and VPs).
• Maintain a regular on‑site presence at customer locations to foster deep collaboration and cultural alignment.

Requirements

• Proven engineering pedigree: 5+ years of professional software engineering experience; a track record of delivering production‑grade systems.
• Production ownership & operational maturity: experience owning mission‑critical services and handling on‑call rotations and incident response with architectural rigor.
• Active practitioner: currently coding, with a ship‑first mentality and a high velocity, staying current with modern frameworks, languages, and deployment patterns.
• Full‑stack architectural depth: technical fluency across frontend, backend, database, and distributed infrastructure.
• AI‑native development: integrated AI‑augmented workflows into daily development to accelerate prototyping and delivery.
• Systems design & strategic thinking: ability to decompose complex requirements into scalable, resilient architectures.
• Cloud ecosystem fluency: deep experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and understanding of serverless, networking, and security primitives.
• High agency & navigating ambiguity: self‑starter who thrives in zero‑to‑one environments, owning solutions end‑to‑end.
• Executive presence: comfortable engaging in high‑stakes technical and strategic discussions with VP‑level stakeholders, translating trade‑offs into business impact.
• Fluency in Hebrew and English.

Nice to Have

• Direct experience building on Cloudflare Workers or the broader Cloudflare Developer Platform.
• Previous experience at a fast‑paced startup or in a customer‑facing engineering role within a partner’s codebase.
