Job description
About Vercel:
Vercel’s Frontend Cloud provides the developer experience and infrastructure to build, scale, and secure a faster, more personalized web. Customers like Under Armour, eBay, The Washington Post, Johnson & Johnson, and Zapier use Vercel to build dynamic user experiences on the web.
At Vercel, our mission is to enable the world to ship the best products and that goes hand in hand with creating an environment where you can do the best work of your life.
About the Role:
We’re hiring a Product Manager to lead Vercel’s CI/CD platform — used by millions of developers each month. CI/CD is often a developer’s first interaction with Vercel, from triggering their first build to sharing a Preview and shipping to production. Your focus will be on making the end-to-end journey fast, clear, and rewarding—especially when things break. This role is deeply technical but centered on UX: surfacing state, helping users debug, and getting them to success quickly.
What You Will Do:
- Shape onboarding & first success: Optimize the experience from first repo connect to first successful deploy
- Improve deployment visibility: Make it easy to understand what’s happening in every build and deployment, especially when things go wrong
- Own Previews: Build out Vercel’s ephemeral environments—automatic, shareable, and tightly integrated with the dev workflow
- Integrate AI tooling: Add intelligent diagnostics, autofixes, and insights to improve developers’ iteration speed
- Strengthen core CI/CD workflows: Improve build reliability, test orchestration, and deployment safety through better caching, rollback support, and failure recovery
About You:
- Product-minded UX focus: You care about how devs experience diagnostics, feedback, and success
- Technically strong: You can reason about APIs just as easily as web surfaces
- Commitment to ship quickly: You iterate fast, validate assumptions, and bring an outcome-focused mentality
- Execution & Influence: You know how to earn trust and get things done
- Interested in Vercel & CI/CD: you regularly use the Vercel product, and have strong opinions on how the build + deploy experience should feel.
- Quantitative Background: A bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, or a similarly quantitative field is strongly preferred
Note: We encourage you to apply even if you don’t feel you meet all qualifications. Many successful candidates don’t check every box listed.
Benefits:
- Competitive compensation package, including equity.
- Inclusive Healthcare Package.
- Learn and Grow - we provide mentorship and send you to events that help you build your network and skills.
- Flexible Time Off.
- We will provide you the gear you need to do your role, and a WFH budget for you to outfit your space as needed.
