Incoming Product Manager Intern at Cloudflare

Hugo Vicente

Computer Science engineer — BSc, Instituto Superior Técnico

I work where product meets engineering: turning complex technical requirements into shipped products — ML pipelines, distributed systems, and customer-facing platforms, delivered on weekly cycles.

About

I'm a Computer Science & Engineering graduate from Instituto Superior Técnico and an incoming Cloudflare Product Manager Intern.

I sit at the intersection of product and engineering: translating ambiguous stakeholder requirements into modular systems, standing up the infrastructure to run them, and shipping customer-facing platforms on weekly release cycles. Recently I led the technical roadmap for a synthetic clinical-data platform, cut model experimentation costs by up to 70%, and delivered an AR education platform for the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum.

Whether the work is product strategy, an ML pipeline, or 80+ Linux servers, I care about the same thing: turning complexity into something people can actually use. I'm looking for roles where product and engineering overlap — and I do my best work in teams that ship.
