Vercel - Software Engineer, Compute
Requirements
• 5+ years of software engineering experience, with Golang strongly preferred. • Deep experience with virtual machines, file systems and Linux — you like knowing how things work under the hood (tcpdump, strace, and iptables are familiar tools). • Experience building and operating distributed systems at scale; you design for performance and reliability. • Experience with schedulers and orchestrators for managing containers and non-containerised workloads (e.g. Nomad, Kubernetes). • Excellent problem-solving and communication skills, with a genuine enthusiasm for digging into problems that don't have obvious solutions. • Bonus if you • Have worked on low-level virtualisation or sandbox execution environments. • Have product engineering experience and care about the developer-facing impact of infrastructure decisions. • Have experience with on-call operations for large-scale distributed systems.
Responsibilities
• Manage and improve our fleet of clusters, running 100s of instances deployed in every region where our customers deploy and run their code. • Write Golang on a daily basis and use Terraform to provision infrastructure; you'll get to know Nomad as our scheduler for managing workloads. • Rethink the primitives of our infrastructure — working with virtual filesystems, Linux primitives, and low-level virtualisation. • Own the reliability and performance of our compute platform, including on-call coverage for a team where every improvement has outsized impact at scale. • Collaborate across teams to drive the convergence of all compute at Vercel.
