Why I joined Cloudflare — and why I’m excited about Project Pangea

Roderick Fanou shares his journey of joining Cloudflare as a Systems Engineer in Austin, Texas after facing challenges accessing the internet during his travels through West Africa. He pursued studies in telecoms and conducted research on internet characteristics and routing dynamics in Africa. His experience led him to believe that more local content, support for local communities, and enabling developing regions are necessary. Fanou is excited about Cloudflare's Project Pangea, which aims to improve security and connectivity for community networks at no cost. He encourages stakeholders in developing regions to enquire about the project and partner with Cloudflare.
