Vercel - Software Engineer, Eve

• Design and ship core Eve framework features — the file-system conventions, compiler, and runtime that turn an agent directory into a durable, production-ready agent on Vercel. • Build and maintain integrations across Eve's channel layer (Slack, Web Chat, WhatsApp, API, Cron, and more) and connections layer (Vercel Connect / MCP endpoints). • Collaborate with the AI SDK, Workflows, and Sandbox teams to ensure Eve's primitives compose seamlessly on the Vercel platform. • Drive DX quality — CLI ergonomics, error messages, docs, and examples — so TypeScript/Next.js developers can ship their first agent in minutes. • Contribute to Eve's evaluation and observability story: test suites, scoring rubrics, and deployment-time evals that make agents production-safe. • Partner with early customers and internal teams to gather feedback, diagnose agent reliability issues, and iterate rapidly. • 5+ years of production TypeScript/JavaScript experience; comfortable owning complex, stateful systems end to end. • Strong understanding of distributed systems concepts — durable execution, checkpointing, async workflows, and failure recovery. • Experience building or operating developer tooling, frameworks, or SDKs used by external developers. • Familiarity with LLM APIs and agent orchestration patterns (tool calling, multi-agent delegation, human-in-the-loop flows). • Track record of shipping high-quality open-source or customer-facing APIs and caring deeply about API design. • The New York, NY base pay range for this role is $208,000-$312,000. Actual salary will be based on job-related skills, experience, and location. Compensation outside of 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.
