InternshipRemoteTeam 4,400Since 2010

Available location(s): Singapore About the Team Cloudflare's Solutions Engineers come from all kinds of backgrounds: software development, computer science, data science, networking, and plenty of fields that have nothing obvious to do with technology. What we hire for isn't a specific degree. It's a mindset: curious, technically sharp, and motivated by helping others succeed. We're the technical customer advocates within Cloudflare, working closely with Sales, Product, Engineering, and Customer Support with one shared goal: customer success. The APAC Solutions Engineering, Center of Excellence (COE) is a small, focused team within the broader APAC SE organisation. Right now, we're building the AI capabilities that will change how SE, Sales, and GTM teams work across the region. We're looking for interns who want to be part of building that. Who are we looking for? You're probably finishing a degree, or close to it, in computer science, software engineering, data science, or something in that space. But your best work probably didn't happen in a lecture theatre. It happened when you stayed up debugging a side project, shipped something at a hackathon, or found yourself reading documentation for a technology you had no real reason to know yet. We're looking for curious and ambitious builders who want to explore a career that mixes technical depth with helping others do their best work. Curious what the programme looks like in practice? Hear directly from our past interns. About the Role You'll join Cloudflare's APAC Solutions Engineering, Center of Excellence (COE) team as part of a small cohort of interns working directly with the team running an internal AI initiative. The goal is to build AI capabilities across SE, Sales, and GTM functions in APAC. This isn't a shadow-and-observe internship. You'll build real tools, contribute to live projects, and leave behind work that your colleagues actually use. All the resources and training required to be effective in this role will be provided. In a typical week, you might: - Build and test an AI agent or internal chatbot to help SE and Sales teams work faster, built on Cloudflare Workers AI and AI Gateway - Design and prototype a demo that shows Cloudflare's AI platform capabilities for a real customer use case - Write scripts or lightweight tools that cut manual work out of GTM workflows - Dig into usage or productivity data to see what impact the tools your team built are actually having - Present your work at a team showcase or sprint review What Success Looks Like - Ship at least one internal AI tool that SE or GTM colleagues are actively using - Contribute to tools or demos that make a real difference to how the team works - Leave with at least one piece of work the wider team can pick up and use It is critical that you: - Can write working code in Python, JavaScript, or a similar language and ship things independently - Have a basic understanding of how the web works: HTTP, REST APIs, DNS, TLS - Can explain what you built and why, to a technical or non-technical audience - Are curious and self-directed. You try things before asking - Are able to work on-site in our Singapore office. Relocation and visa sponsorship are not available for this role It would be awesome if you also: - Have played around with LLMs, AI APIs, or prompt engineering, even just in side projects, coursework, or a hackathon - Have used any part of the Cloudflare developer platform: Workers, R2, Pages, or anything similar - Have experience with data analysis or lightweight dashboarding (Python, notebooks, etc.) - Have shipped something as part of a team: a university capstone, hackathon project, open source contribution, or a previous internship Technologies we work with Cloudflare Workers, Workers AI, AI Gateway, Vectorize, Pages, R2, D1, KV • Python • JavaScript / TypeScript
