Being a computer programmer does not disqualify the OP. He'll have to prove that a year of working with Cloudflare for a year has given him specialized knowledge in one or the following areas:
1. Business domain: That OP has learned about the business domain that Cloudflare operates in, and has gained insights and knowledge that will not be present in fresh hires in the US
2. Cloudflare business processes: That OP has mastered one or many Cloudflare business processes which require at least a year of working with the company and cannot be expected from new joiner immediately
3. Proprietary tools knowledge: That OP has mastered one or many proprietary tools used by Cloudflare and that this mastery is a result of working with the tools extensively during OP's one year tenure with the company
tl;dr version - need to have some knowledge (tools, domain knowledge, business process knowledge) that cannot be expected from a fresh joiner.
