  • Security-focused mindset: You’ve worked on security or infra products and understand what’s needed to protect large-scale platforms
  • Product + revenue instincts: You know how to turn core capabilities into differentiated, monetizable features
  • Technical fluency: You were an engineer or technical PM—comfortable with protocols, headers, DNS, and certificates
  • Execution & Influence: You know how to earn trust and get things done
  • Quantitative background: A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field is preferred

Bonus Points:

  • Passion for Vercel & Frontend Ecosystem: You appreciate our mission, understand the needs of modern developers, and have opinions about where frontend technology is headed.

Benefits:

  • Competitive compensation package, including equity.
  • Inclusive Healthcare Package.
  • Learn and Grow - we provide mentorship and send you to events that help you build your network and skills.
  • Flexible Time Off.
