About the RoleCanada's financial institutions are modernizing their customer applications, internal platforms, and security, while meeting strict regulatory, resilience, and audit expectations.

Run executive and architecture workshops that produce roadmaps, reference architectures, and business cases co-developed with their teams, positioning Cloudflare as a foundational platform, not a point solution.Lead on AI:
Advise on how institutions build, secure, and govern AI applications, agents, and features, and how AI is changing developer productivity.Modernize applications and platforms:
Help teams re-architect customer applications and internal developer platforms, from migration strategy to getting developers to adopt the new platform at scale.Design in security:
Help architect applications, APIs, and AI workloads that are secure by design and meet financial-services risk and resilience expectations.Build to prove it:
