About Us

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.

About the role

As our Director of Talent Acquisition, APAC & Japan (APJC), you will translate our global talent vision into a high-performing regional reality. Your focus will be Go-To-Market (GTM) heavy but you will also maintain operational oversight for our regional R&D and G&A hiring footprint. You are a highly operational leader who knows how to localize a modern, AI-forward recruiting playbook, break down regional hiring constraints, and scale a fast-moving talent engine.

What you’ll do

Stakeholder Alignment: Earn deep trust with APJC leadership through genuine business fluency and talent partnership approach.

Market Intelligence: Bring proactive APJC talent market insights to the table, advising regional leaders on talent pool elasticity, local compensation trends, and competitive landscapes

Inspirational Management: Lead, mentor, and elevate a localized team of recruiters and sourcers based in Singapore and across the region, fostering a culture of high performance and continuous development.

GTM High-Growth Engine: Act as the primary talent partner for our APJC GTM leadership. You will own the strategy for scaling our sales, account management, and field operations across key regional hubs.

Hiring Marketplace Experience Obsessed: Ensure our APJC candidates and hiring managers experience unmatched speed, absolute transparency, and mutual respect. You will adapt global workflows to fit local cultural and market nuances without adding bureaucracy.

Outcomes Over Process: Empower your regional team to be agile and adaptive. Ruthlessly eliminate regional hiring bottlenecks and focus the team on delivering high-quality matches rather than just tracking activities.

Data-Driven: Monitor and optimize the APJC talent funnel across all segments. Track key regional metrics—funnel health, passive-to-active conversion velocity, segment-specific time-to-fill, and quality-of-hire—to continuously tune the regional engine.

AI-First Execution: Successfully implement global AI-driven sourcing, screening, and scheduling tools within your regional team, freeing up your recruiters to focus on deep candidate relationship building and closing.

Who you are

Recruiting Leadership Experience: High business acumen with proven experience leading talent acquisition teams within a high-growth enterprise SaaS or web infrastructure environments. Previous agency experience is a plus.
