<div class="content-intro"><h2>About Vercel:</h2> <p><span data-sheets-root="1">Vercel is the agentic infrastructure company. We free people and agents to ship what’s next.</span></p> <p><span data-sheets-root="1">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.</span></p> <p><span data-sheets-root="1">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.</span></p> <p><span data-sheets-root="1">We are building the platform for that future, trusted by companies like <strong>OpenAI, PayPal, Ramp, Supreme, and millions of developers worldwide</strong>. Whether you’re building our products, supporting our customers, growing our community, or shaping our story, you’ll help define what comes next.</span></p></div><h2>About the Role:</h2> <p>The CDN Content team is responsible for serving all content that flows through Vercel s global CDN — static assets, optimized images, incrementally regenerated pages, partially prerendered shells, and everything in between — to billions of requests for millions of developers. Our focus is performance: ensuring content is served globally as fast as possible. Caching plays a big role in making that happen, and the team operates a multi-tier caching architecture spanning in-process caches, regional cache services, and object storage across 20+ regions.</p> <p>As a Software Engineer on the team, you ll take on well-scoped projects with real production impact and grow into owning larger pieces of the system. The work spans the serving path end to end, and everything ships through careful, progressive rollouts validated with production data. You ll learn how a planet-scale CDN works from engineers who built it.</p> <p>This is a team where infrastructure meets product: we work in close partnership with frameworks such as Next.js, bringing framework-defined infrastructure to life on Vercel s CDN, and the serving and caching behavior we ship directly shapes the performance and cost that millions of developers see. You ll develop strong instincts for distributed systems, careful production rollouts, and data-driven engineering.</p> <p>If you re based within a pre-determined commuting distance of one of our offices (SF or NY), the role includes in-office anchor days on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. If you re located beyond that distance, the role is fully remote. For location-specific details, please connect with our recruiting team.</p> <p> </p> <h2>What You Will Do:</h2> <ul> <li>Build and improve the services behind ISR, PPR, and image optimization — working in Go, Lua, and TypeScript across the serving path.</li> <li>Execute well-defined projects independently, from implementation through safe rollout (feature flags, shadow modes, progressive deployment) and post-ship validation.</li> <li>Monitor and maintain your work in production: build dashboards, add metrics and alerts, and develop ownership of what you ship.</li> <li>Contribute to the team s observability and testing surface — the dashboards, logs views, and e2e test suites that keep a high-change system trustworthy.</li> <li>Participate in the on-call rotation with support from senior engineers, and contribute to incident follow-ups that make the system more resilient.</li> <li>Collaborate with teammates and partner teams (Next.js, CI/CD) through design discussions, code review, and pairing.</li> </ul> <h2> </h2> <h2>About You:</h2> <ul> <li>2+ years of experience building and operating backend services in production.</li> <li>Proficiency in at least one of Go, TypeScript/Node.js, or a comparable systems language, and enthusiasm for working across a polyglot stack.</li> <li>Solid understanding of
