About Vercel:

Vercel gives developers the tools and cloud infrastructure to build, scale, and secure a faster, more personalized web. As the team behind v0, Next.js, and AI SDK, Vercel helps customers like Ramp, Supreme, PayPal, Chick-fil-A, and Under Armour build for the AI-native web.

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 are looking for experienced SREs help grow our small team into a global footprint that can provide expert engagement across our core serving systems. As an early member of the SRE team you will report directly to the Director of Managed Infrastructure and play a foundational role in expanding our SRE practice, integrating reliability principles more deeply into Vercel’s engineering process as we expand.

Within the team your focus will be on enhancing our Compute infrastructure in close partnership with our EU-based developer team. You will design for reliability and performance while managing for risk as we introduce major innovations to our compute stack.

What You Will Do:

  • Ensure that our products are built for reliability and scale by engaging in the end-to-end design, development, and deployment of new software.
  • Drive continuous risk mitigation and reduction through direct involvement in incident management, blameless postmortems, and follow-ups.
  • Drive measurable improvements to the reliability, performance, and efficiency of our production systems through instrumentation, analysis, and implementation of engineering improvements.
  • Devise repeatable, low-toil operational practices through the development of automated systems for software delivery, system failover, and capacity management.

About You:

  • At least 3 years experience in an SRE role, or at least 5 years experience in an adjacent role (e.g. platform engineering), operating in a scaled environment.
  • Firm grasp of the SRE philosophy and mindset, with practical experience working on or directly with SRE teams that have proactively engaged in system design and improvement.
  • Strong sense of accountability and commitment to problem solving, backed by a curiosity to dig deep and identify root causes.
  • Willingness to proactively engage with development teams to influence the course of software design and operational practices.
  • Capability to manage risk, make decisions, and exhibit sound judgment
  • Demonstrated ability to plan and deliver long-term projects
  • Experience with distributed system design
  • Experience with Containers, Virtual Machines, and Linux
  • Bonus: Experience working with Terraform and/or Golang

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.
  • We will provide you the gear you need to do your role, and a WFH budget for you to outfit your space as needed.
