About the DX Engineer Role

We're hiring a DX Engineer to help define what developer education looks like in the AI era. You'll own Vercel's documentation experience, including the content, the infrastructure, and increasingly, the AI systems that help create and maintain it.

This role sits at the intersection of engineering, education, and AI. You'll build agents, automate workflows, ensure accessibility, and write excellent documentation.

When applying, include work that shows how you think about developer experience, in the format of a deep dive technical guide.

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