Product Manager Intern (2027) - Lisbon, PT

Cloudflare • San Francisco, CA

9d • Onsite

About The Position

Cloudflare is hiring a Product Manager Intern for a summer 2027 internship based in Lisbon, Portugal. The Product Management team defines the vision, strategy, and roadmap for features across Cloudflare’s global network. Product Managers connect user needs, technical feasibility, and business impact, working with engineering, design, sales, and marketing to solve complex problems at scale.

The intern will own a product initiative rather than simply shadowing team members. The role includes gathering customer insights, defining requirements, and collaborating with experienced engineers and designers to ship features used by people worldwide. The internship runs for 12 weeks, from May through September 2027, is full-time at 40 hours per week, and requires working in the Lisbon office 3–5 days per week during standard business hours, typically 9:00 AM–6:00 PM. Applicants must not have conflicting classes during the internship. Remote and part-time applicants are not being considered.

The monthly salary for hires based in Portugal is €2,450. Intern hiring is rolling until all roles are filled. Applicants who reach the offer stage may be asked to attend an in-person interview at a Cloudflare office or hub. The position may require access to information controlled under U.S. export laws, and an employment offer may depend on authorization to access that technology without export-license sponsorship.
