About This Job
Cloudflare is seeking a lawyer with a passion for new technologies to join the Product Counsel team. The Product Counsel team serves as the frontline legal contact and helps solve some of the company’s thorniest issues. As a member of the team, you’ll wear many hats and lead cross-functional projects with meaningful impact. The ideal candidate brings deep enthusiasm for innovative technology and the ability to collaborate closely with product, engineering, and business teams throughout the software development and commercialization lifecycle. This role requires drafting and negotiating the technology transactions that fuel our products, such as our AI inference offerings. Through this work, you will help evaluate novel legal questions and craft practical solutions at the frontier of law and technology. As a member of the Product Counsel team, you will also support privacy-by-design reviews, document data flows for responsible AI counseling, and partner with the commercial legal team to address complex customer inquiries.
In this role, you will:

- Experience with copyright law and Internet law is desired (e.g., AI Act, Data Act, net neutrality, DMCA, CFAA).
- Strong communication skills and cooperative team player. Lead with empathy and understanding while embracing diverse points of view. Flexibility to adapt and thrive in a fast paced environment.
- Ability to work cross-functionally, with lawyers and non-lawyers, to establish effective solutions efficiently and in an amenable manner.
- Ability to organize, prioritize, and manage many tasks on complex projects. Experience with Jira or other project management solutions is desired.

We will continue to abide by our privacy commitment and ensure that no user data is sold to advertisers or used to target consumers.

Job Roles at Cloudflare Companies
How to Get Visa Sponsorship in Cloudflare Visa Sponsorship USA
Target Cloudflare's core engineering teams
Cloudflare's heaviest sponsorship activity is concentrated in software engineering, network infrastructure, and security roles. Focusing your applications on these technical functions gives you the best chance of landing a role that comes with visa support.
Understand which visa types Cloudflare supports
Cloudflare sponsors H-1B, E-3, TN, F-1 OPT, F-1 CPT, and Green Card pathways. Knowing which category fits your background before applying lets you frame your eligibility clearly in recruiter conversations and avoid mismatched expectations early in the process.
Highlight specialized, hard-to-source skills
Cloudflare operates at the intersection of security, performance, and distributed systems. Candidates with niche expertise in areas like Rust, WebAssembly, DDoS mitigation, or zero-trust architecture are more likely to clear the internal bar for sponsorship consideration.
Engage Cloudflare's talent team directly
Cloudflare recruiters are experienced with visa workflows given the company's active sponsorship history. Mentioning your visa type early in outreach signals self-awareness and reduces friction, most recruiters appreciate candidates who already understand their own immigration situation.
Time your application around Cloudflare's hiring cycles
H-1B cap-subject applications must be filed in April for an October start date. If you're targeting Cloudflare on an H-1B, applying to open roles between November and February gives your application time to move through the process before the cap deadline.
Find verified Cloudflare openings on Migrate Mate
Generic job boards don't filter by real sponsorship history. Migrate Mate surfaces verified sponsors so you can filter by actual visa type and company track record, useful when confirming that Cloudflare is actively hiring for roles that match your background.

Get Access To All JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Cloudflare sponsor H-1B visas?
Yes, Cloudflare sponsors H-1B visas and has a consistent track record of doing so. Sponsorship is most common for software engineering, infrastructure, and security roles. If you're applying on an H-1B, be aware of the April cap filing deadline and plan your timeline accordingly, roles need to be secured well before that window opens.
Which visa types does Cloudflare sponsor?
Cloudflare sponsors a broad range of visa types including H-1B, E-3, TN, F-1 OPT, and F-1 CPT. It also supports Green Card sponsorship for employees on long-term pathways. This makes Cloudflare a strong option for candidates from Australia, Canada, and Mexico, as well as those transitioning from student status or seeking permanent residence.
Which roles at Cloudflare are most likely to receive visa sponsorship?
Technical roles in software engineering, systems infrastructure, network security, and product development are where Cloudflare's sponsorship is most concentrated. The company builds highly specialized internet infrastructure products, so roles requiring depth in areas like distributed systems, cryptography, or performance engineering tend to attract both sponsorship willingness and competitive compensation packages.
How do I find open roles at Cloudflare that sponsor visas?
Migrate Mate lists Cloudflare job openings alongside verified sponsorship history, so you can confirm which roles are actively hiring and what visa types the company has supported. Searching directly on Cloudflare's careers page also works, but it won't show sponsorship context, cross-referencing both gives you a clearer picture before you apply.
How do I approach the Cloudflare application process as a visa-sponsored candidate?
Be upfront about your visa status early. Cloudflare's recruiting team is experienced with international candidates, and transparency avoids wasted time on both sides. Focus your application on roles that align tightly with your technical background, tailor your resume to Cloudflare's product areas, and be prepared to discuss your immigration timeline if it affects your start date flexibility.
