Head of GTM, AI Inference

About Us At Cloudflare, we are on a mission to help build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the world’s largest networks that powers millions of websites and other Internet properties for customers ranging from individual bloggers to SMBs to Fortune 500 companies. Cloudflare protects and accelerates any Internet application online without adding hardware, installing software, or changing a line of code. Internet properties powered by Cloudflare all have web traffic routed through its intelligent global network, which gets smarter with every request. As a result, they see significant improvement in performance and a decrease in spam and other attacks. Cloudflare was named to Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top Company Cultures list and ranked among the World’s Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company. At Cloudflare, we’re not looking for people who wait for a polished roadmap; we’re looking for the builders who see the cracks in the Internet that everyone else has simply learned to live with. We value candidates who have the instinct to spot a "normalized" problem and the AI-native curiosity to create a solution using the latest tools. Our culture is built on iteration, leveraging AI to ship faster today to make it better tomorrow, while ensuring that every improvement, no matter how small, is shared across the team to lift everyone up. If you’re the type of person who values curiosity over bureaucracy, and that AI is a partner in solving tough problems to keep the Internet moving forward, you’ll fit right in. Available Locations New York, US San Francisco, US About the Role Cloudflare is building one of the most differentiated AI inference platforms in the market. We aren’t building another commoditized GPU-by-the-hour provider, but a globally distributed, serverless inference platform integrated into the world's largest developer ecosystem. We need someone to own the go-to-market strategy for this business. As Head of GTM, AI Inference, you will be the connective tissue between our cutting-edge AI infrastructure, our product teams, and the global market. You'll work directly with Workers AI prospects evaluating Cloudflare as a source of GPU capacity, partner with product leadership to shape how we position and package our inference capabilities, and build the analytical frameworks that help us pursue the right customers and partners -- not just the most obvious ones. This is not a role where you execute a playbook someone else wrote. You'll write the playbook, pressure-test it against real market signals, and rewrite it as the landscape shifts. You'll need to be as comfortable building a financial model for inference unit economics as you are running a strategic sales conversation with an AI-native startup's CTO.
