Network Deployment Engineer Intern (Summer 2026)

Nice to have:

Currently enrolled in (or recently graduated from) a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree program in Computer Science, Telecommunications, Network Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field.

Foundational Knowledge:

Solid academic understanding of the OSI model, basic network protocols (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP), and network topologies.

In this role, you will help support the build-out and expansion of our global network. As an intern, you will be paired with a dedicated mentor from the Network Deployment team who will guide you through the end-to-end lifecycle of infrastructure planning and execution.

This is a highly practical, hands-on opportunity designed to bridge the gap between academic theory and real-world application. You will take ownership of small-scale network deployment projects, write scripts to automate our workflows, and physically deploy hardware in local data centers. If you are eager to learn, willing to get your hands dirty, and want to help build a faster, safer Internet for millions of users, this is the place for you.

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.
