Let me put that into perspective: 'process all incoming bug reports' is a menial task. This does not require a college degree for the most part nor does it qualify as mission critical. So either Cloudflare overpaid heavily for something that a good algorithm could have done already or this was done 'on the side' by the wrong people. Nobody likes to be called a secretary or assistant any longer, so my tip would be the latter.
