Software Engineer, Agentic Infrastructure

Software Engineer, Agentic Infrastructure Job Description About Vercel: Vercel is the agentic infrastructure company. We free people and agents to ship what’s next. For more than a decade, Vercel has shaped how the web is built. As the team behind Next.js, v0, and AI SDK, we create products that help builders move from idea to production with speed, security, and exceptional developer experience. Now, software is entering a new era, and the next generation of products will not just be used by people. They will be built, extended, and operated by agents. We are building the platform for that future, trusted by companies like OpenAI, PayPal, Ramp, Supreme, and millions of developers worldwide . Whether you’re building our products, supporting our customers, growing our community, or shaping our story, you’ll help define what comes next. About the Role: The next generation of software won’t just be used by people – it’ll be built and shipped by agents. Builds are where that happens, and they’re the beating heart of Vercel. Whether an idea starts in v0, in an agent, or in an engineer’s editor, every customer builds – and millions of builds flow through our systems every day. As an engineer on the Agentic Infrastructure team, you’ll take ownership of the systems that carry that work at scale. You won’t just contribute features – you’ll be responsible for the design, reliability, and evolution of the platform itself. You’ll make decisions that shape performance, define best practices, and ensure the workflows that Vercel, our customers, and their agents depend on are fast, resilient, and secure. This role blends product thinking with deep systems ownership. You’ll partner with teams across Vercel to build and operate the agentic infrastructure that determines how software actually ships. We’re looking for engineers who want to own high-scale systems end-to-end, thrive on improving the developer/agent experience, and are driven to have a lasting impact on how modern software gets built and delivered. What You Will Do: Own and evolve the infrastructure that powers Vercel’s build and deployment lifecycle – from handling webhooks to designing resilient database schemas and building scalable APIs. Design and operate high-performance microservices that process millions of builds daily, ensuring speed, reliability, and developer delight. Lead projects end-to-end: from identifying opportunities to defining technical direction and delivering improvements in performance, reliability, and developer experience. Collaborate across teams to align infrastructure with company-wide goals and ensure seamless developer workflows. Shape the long-term vision of agentic infrastructure at Vercel by setting standards for scalability, reliability, and developer productivity. Participate in the on‑call rotation, taking responsibility for the reliability of critical systems. Contribute to the open‑source community, representing Vercel’s commitment to advancing developer tools globally. Write clean, efficient, tested, and well‑documented code that others can build upon confidently. Bonus If You: The base pay range for this role is $196,000.00 – $294,000.00. Actual salary will be based on job‑related skills, experience, and location. Compensation outside of San Francisco may be adjusted based on employee location. The total compensation package may include benefits, equity‑based compensation, and eligibility for a company bonus or variable pay program depending on the role. Vercel is committed to fostering and empowering an inclusive community within our organization. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, gender expression or identity, sexual orientation, national origin, citizenship, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
