Full Job Description
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, 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: This role has two jobs and you’ll own both. 1) Ship great content.

We are building the content engine that will define how content is generated in the age of AI. Come build the agents, tooling, workflows, and structure that help our small team ship faster without sacrificing technical credibility or authentic human writing. We’ve got the tokens, and you can help us burn ‘em. You will join a small, high-agency team at the intersection of product, engineering, and go-to-market. We publish for a world where people and AI agents discover, evaluate, and cite information differently than they did in the SEO era. How we work We treat content like an engineering discipline: quality bars, reusable components, and systems that let us iterate quickly. Just like software engineering, the best people have mastered the craft and can do it by hand, but use AI to dramatically increase their throughput. You’ll work in a stack that may include: Claude Code (and other code-first LLM tools) for technical exploration, refactors, example generation, and literally building the a
