Our mission is to enable the world to ship the best products. That starts with creating a place where everyone can do their best work. Whether you're building on our platform , supporting our customers, or shaping our story: You can just ship things. About the role: We’re looking for a Software Engineer to join the Vercel Agent team. Our mission is simple: deploying on Vercel should feel like adding a seasoned infrastructure engineer to your team. The Vercel Agent investigates incidents before you see them, fixes failing builds, reviews code with deep production context, and answers questions about your running app with the authority of someone who has read the logs. Today, this work spans multiple shipped products: automated code review on every PR, AI -driven investigation of production anomalies, an intelligent support agent that resolves the majority of customer issues without human intervention, and conversational code generation . We’re now unifying these into a single agent that appears pervasively across surfaces (like the Vercel dashboard, Vercel CLI, Slack, and many more), and is capable of multi-step reasoning, code execution in sandboxed environments, and taking real actions on your behalf. Two things we’re most excited about: self-driving infrastructure , where 90% of what requires manual DevOps today gets handled automatically by the platform ; and framework-defined agents , where the agent is customized to each customer’s application, injecting the right skills when they’re needed rather than dumping generic best practices. This is a small team with an outsized mandate. You’ll work directly with leadership and across product, design , and infrastructure teams to define what self-driving infrastructure looks like — then build it. If you’re based within a pre-determined commuting distance of one of our offices (SF, NY, London, or Berlin), the role includes in-office anchor days on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday, even if the role is listed as remote. For location-specific details, please connect with our recruiting team. What you will do: Design and build agentic systems that autonomously investigate, diagnose, and remediate production issues — from 500 errors and build failures to performance regressions and security anomalies. Architect multi-step agent workflows that coordinate across tools, APIs , and sandboxed code execution environments, with durable state that survives crashes and timeouts. Build the skills and tool integrations that give the agent deep knowledge of the Vercel platform , such as deployments, functions, logs, metrics, DNS, and the full lifecycle of a web application. Ship polished, user -facing experiences across multiple surfaces (Slack, dashboard, CLI) without waiting for a designer to hand you a mockup. This team values engineers with strong product and UI instincts. Develop the infrastructure for dynamic skill injection, so the agent acquires new capabilities at runtime rather than through redeployment, routing the right logic to the right context at the right time.
