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.js team builds the open source framework that powers millions of applications and shapes how developers build for the web. Our work sits at the intersection of React, framework architecture, developer experience, infrastructure, performance, and production reliability.
We are looking for an Engineering Team Lead to help build and lead a team working on Next.js. This is a hands-on player/coach role for an experienced engineer who wants to remain close to the code while helping a small team do its best work.
You will be an engineer first and a manager second. You will contribute directly to the framework, lead major technical initiatives, review code, debug complex production issues, and help make architectural decisions. You will also support the engineers around you through clear direction, thoughtful feedback, and practical coaching.
This is not a traditional people management role. You will spend the majority of your time on technical leadership and engineering execution. You should be comfortable owning difficult parts of the codebase while creating enough context and clarity for others to move quickly.
You will work closely with Product, Design, and engineers across Vercel to guide the evolution of Next.js across rendering, caching, routing, build systems, and developer tooling.
What You Will Do
  • Build and ship Next.js: Write production code, review pull requests, debug difficult issues, and contribute directly to the framework and its supporting systems.
  • Lead major technical initiatives: Take ownership of complex projects from initial exploration through architecture, implementation, rollout, and production follow-through.
  • Set technical direction: Make sound architectural decisions across rendering, caching, routing, build systems, runtime behavior, and developer tooling.
  • Stay close to real problems: Investigate performance regressions, production failures, and developer pain points. Turn what you learn into practical improvements to the framework.
  • Raise the engineering bar: Establish strong patterns for code quality, testing, performance, reliability, observability, and incremental delivery.
  • Coach through the work: Help engineers grow through pairing, design reviews, code reviews, technical feedback, and shared ownership of challenging problems.
  • Provide focused people leadership: Set clear expectations, give candid feedback, support career development, and help maintain a high-trust and accountable team.
  • Improve team execution: Create lightweight planning and decision-making practices that clarify ownership, reduce unnecessary coordination, and help the team ship consistently.
  • Partner across Vercel: Work with Product, Design, Infrastructure, Developer Experience, and other engineering teams so framework changes integrate cleanly across the Vercel platform.
  • Champion open source: Work in public, engage thoughtfully with contributors, and balance community needs with the team's product and technical priorities.
  • Help grow the team: Participate in recruiting, assess technical talent, and help new engineers become productive in a complex codebase.
About You
  • You have 8+ years of software engineering experience and remain highly effective as a hands-on engineer.
  • You have led engineers or small technical teams, whether as a team lead, tech lead, staff engineer, engineering manager, or founder.
  • You have recent experience writing, reviewing, and shipping production code. You are not looking to step away from engineering execution.
  • You have strong technical judgment across React, framework architecture, or the systems behind a large-scale open source project, including rendering, caching, routing, build tooling, and runtime behavior.
  • You can take a complex technical problem, form a clear point of view, write the critical code, and bring other engineers along with you.
  • You know when to lead from the front and when to create space for someone else to take ownership.
  • You have experience building products or infrastructure for developers and understand the quality, performance, stability, and usability standards this audience expects.
  • You think in systems and can guide a team toward clean abstractions, consistent framework patterns, and technical decisions that hold up at scale.
  • You are comfortable working through ambiguity and solving problems from first principles.
  • You balance speed and quality. You favor incremental delivery and real-world feedback while recognizing when foundational infrastructure requires deeper investment.
  • You communicate clearly in writing, facilitate productive technical debate, and make decisions when a path forward is needed.
  • You use AI tools in your own workflow and have informed opinions about how agentic products should work for developers.
Bonus
  • Experience maintaining or contributing to a major open source project, particularly in the React or Next.js ecosystem.
  • Experience with compilers, bundlers, caching, rendering systems, or distributed infrastructure.
  • Experience leading a small, senior engineering team while continuing to make substantial individual contributions.
  • Experience forming a team or technical direction from zero to one.
  • Familiarity with the Next.js codebase, though this is not required.
Benefits
  • Competitive compensation package, including equity.
  • Inclusive healthcare package.
  • Learning and growth support, including mentorship and opportunities to attend events that build your network and skills.
  • Flexible time off.
  • The equipment you need to do your role, plus a work-from-home budget to outfit your space.
Compensation
The San Francisco, CA base pay range for this role is $230,000 to $340,000. Actual salary will be based on job-related skills, experience, and location. Compensation outside 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. Your recruiter can share more details during the hiring process.
Equal Opportunity
Vercel is committed to fostering and empowering an inclusive community within our organization. We do not discriminate based on 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.
Vercel encourages everyone to apply, even if they do not meet every qualification listed in the job description.
