About the Role
The Finance & BizOps team provides financial insights and strategic guidance to shape Cloudflare's growth, profitability, and investment strategy. We're looking for a seasoned, dynamic senior leader to join this team as the dedicated finance partner to the Developer GTM organization. The Developer Platform is one of Cloudflare's fastest-growing businesses, spanning compute, storage, AI inference, media, and a growing ecosystem of developer tools—delivered through both self-serve and enterprise go-to-market motions. This role reports to the VP of Finance & BizOps.
Responsibilities
- Own the developer platform and self-serve revenue forecasts—connecting usage trends, contracted commitments, and deployment activity to revenue outcomes.
- Drive annual and quarterly planning for the developer business, including target-setting, scenario analysis, and resource allocation.
- Support deal evaluation for strategic transactions—assessing deal structure, payment terms, and margin implications.
- Work with the Pricing team, Deal Desk, and cross-functional partners to develop reusable frameworks for consumption-based and hybrid deal structures.
- Develop deep visibility into the developer business across products, revenue streams, usage patterns, and cost structures.
- Partner with R&D Finance and infrastructure teams to connect product economics to commercial outcomes.
- Serve as the financial voice of the developer platform to senior leadership—translating complex business performance into clear, narrative-driven perspectives.
- Drive monthly close, forecast, and variance analysis. Own budget management and financial stewardship.
Desirable Skills, Knowledge, and Experience
- 10+ years of progressive finance experience in investment banking, private equity, FP&A, strategic finance, or a similar highly analytical role, coupled with operational experience at a fast-paced, scaling company.
- High-growth, public-company SaaS or cloud infrastructure experience preferred.
- Intellectually curious and AI-native. Actively incorporate AI tooling into workflows to accelerate analysis and improve decision-making.
- A builder mindset—energized by ambiguity, take ownership of problems, and comfortable operating with blurred lines of ownership.
- Operating experience as an embedded finance partner to a senior GTM or business leader (VP+) in a technology company.
- Strong fluency in consumption-based revenue mechanics, cloud and AI infrastructure economics, and pricing strategy—with the ability to build financial models from scratch.
- Clear, direct communication with an outstanding ability to turn numbers into narratives that influence senior leaders.
