Quick Overview
Job Description
About Vercel:
Vercel is the agentic infrastructure company, freeing people and agents to ship what's next. For more than a decade we've helped builders move from idea to production with speed, security, and exceptional developer experience.
Now we're scaling our products for both agents and people to ship and run software, built in the open and trusted by OpenAI, PayPal, Ramp, Supreme, and millions of developers worldwide.
About the Role:
We are seeking a Backend leaning Software Engineer. In this role, you will play a pivotal role in designing, building, and maintaining scalable, high-performance systems.

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.

- Maintain and operate services at high scale, participating in scheduled on-call rotations to ensure reliability.
- Implement identity synchronization and lifecycle management solutions using SCIM and other relevant standards.
- Work with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, Kubernetes, etc.) to deliver scalable, high-availability applications.
- Build and maintain high-quality enterprise software using TypeScript, REST APIs, and JSON.
About You:
- Proficiency in TypeScript/JavaScript, React, and Node.js.
- Strong knowledge of security architecture, LDAP, Active Directory, SAML, SSO, OAuth2, OpenID Connect and web protocols like XML, SOAP, JSON, and REST.
- Familiarity with access control models such as RBAC, ABAC and ReBAC.
- Experience with SQL.
- Practical experience developing and improving applications written in Node.js.
- Exhibit excellent problem-solving abilities and effective communication skills, especially when collaborating with diverse teams.
Benefits & Compensation:
- 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.
- We will provide you the gear you need to do your role, and a WFH budget for you to outfit your space as needed.
