About Vercel:

Vercel provides developers with the tools and cloud infrastructure necessary to build, scale, and secure a faster, more personalized web experience. As the team behind v0, Next.js, and AI SDK, Vercel empowers customers like Ramp, Supreme, PayPal, and Under Armour to build for the AI-native web.

Our mission is to enable the world to ship the best products. This begins with creating an environment where everyone can do their best work. Whether you are building on our platform, supporting our customers, or shaping our narrative, you can simply ship things.

About the Role:

We are seeking a Software Engineer to join our Microfrontends team. In this position, you will develop solutions to decompose large applications into smaller, cohesive units. This role involves working with multiple frameworks and addressing challenges related to inter-application code interaction, such as CSS isolation, data sharing, and performance optimization. You will play a crucial role in enhancing developer velocity for organizations and facilitating incremental technology migrations.

Work Arrangement:

  • If you are based within a pre-determined commuting distance of our offices (SF, NY, London, or Berlin), the role includes in-office anchor days on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday.
  • If you are located beyond that distance, the role is fully remote.
  • For location-specific details, please connect with our recruiting team.

What You Will Do:

  • Enhance the developer velocity of web applications by providing solutions to split web applications.
  • Simplify incremental migrations to update to new technology stacks using microfrontends.
  • Contribute to multiple codebases, including Next.js, API services, and the CDN.
  • Engage with customers and the open-source community on features and issues.
  • Stay current with industry trends in microfrontends.

About You:

  • You possess at least 5 years of experience working with web applications, including React, React Server Components, and Next.js.
  • You have strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript and experience with modern frontend development tools.
  • You enjoy working as a full-stack engineer across multiple parts of the technology stack.
  • You have prior experience with microfrontend architectures, such as Module Federation, Single SPA, or Multi-Zones.

Bonus Points If You:

  • Have experience contributing to or participating in open-source projects.
  • Have worked in an organization that has scaled to a large number of developers and/or performed large-scale web application migrations.
  • Have experience developing a CI/CD platform for other developers.

Benefits:

  • Competitive compensation package, including equity.
  • Inclusive Healthcare Package.
  • Learn and Grow: We provide mentorship and sponsor attendance at events to help you build your network and skills.
  • Flexible Time Off.
  • We provide the necessary gear for your role and a WFH budget to help you set up your workspace.

Our Commitment to Inclusion:

Vercel is dedicated 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.
