About Us

At Cloudflare, we have our eyes set on an ambitious goal: to help build a better Internet. Today the company runs one of the world’s largest networks that powers trillions of requests per month.

  • Build regional business plans with IBM, including quantified goals and milestones, to achieve partner sourced revenue metrics to meet all quarterly sales requirements.
  • Drive team to overall revenue quota that is associated with the overall partnership plan and strategy.
  • Work with partner stakeholders to drive sales enablement and coordinate technical training of Cloudflare’s solutions.

  • Work with the direct sales teams to help close end customer opportunities.
  • Maintain and report an accurate sales forecast in SFDC.

Examples of desirable skills, knowledge and experience

  • Minimum of 10+ years in Software/SaaS/Security Sales & Channel management.
  • 5+ years of experience and a proven track record of developing and managing a strategic alliance. Previous experience managing IBM Alliance is a must.

What Makes Cloudflare Special?

We’re not just a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company. We’re a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company with a soul. Fundamental to our mission to help build a better Internet is protecting the free and open Internet.

Project Galileo: We equip politically and artistically important organizations and journalists with powerful tools to defend themselves against attacks that would otherwise censor their work, technology already used by Cloudflare’s enterprise customers--at no cost.

Project Athenian: We created Athenian Project to ensure that state and local governments have the highest level of protection and reliability for free, so that their constituents have access to election information and voter registration.

Path Forward Partnership: Since 2016, we have partnered with Path Forward, a nonprofit organization, to create 16-week positions for mid-career professionals who want to get back to the workplace after taking time off to care for a child, parent, or loved one.

1.1.1.1: We released 1.1.1.1 to help fix the foundation of the Internet by building a faster, more secure and privacy-centric public DNS resolver. This is available publicly for everyone to use - it is the first consumer-focused service Cloudflare has ever released. Here’s the deal - we don’t store client IP addresses never, ever. We will continue to abide by our privacy policy and ensure that no user data is sold to advertisers or used to target consumers.
