Software Engineer, Dashboard

We're looking for a Full Stack Engineer to build the Vercel Dashboard, the control plane for every Vercel user. You'll own the core surface through which developers and teams interact with Vercel, from first login through daily use.

The Dashboard is where the self-driving aspect of Vercel's Cloud comes to life. Today, it's a project listing page. We're turning it into a personalized, agent-powered surface that proactively helps users ship and stay on best practices. This is a foundational role: you'll be one of the first engineers on a new team, working alongside our current tech lead to rearchitect and rebuild the Dashboard from the ground up.

You'll work across the stack: building fast, polished UI on the frontend and the APIs, data layers, and services that power personalization, agent experiences, and real-time push surfaces on the backend. The Dashboard must be the reference implementation of Vercel's own platform.

What You Will Do

• Build and own core Dashboard infrastructure: the shell, navigation, layout system, and shared components that every product area builds within
• Architect and implement the backend services and APIs that power the Dashboard, including personalization, notifications, and agent-powered experiences
• Drive performance as a core feature. Profile, measure, and optimize aggressively. Every interaction should feel instant
• Build agent-facing surfaces: the UI and API layers where agents surface errors, suggest fixes, update config, and keep users on best practices
• Work closely with product area teams (Billing, CI/CD, Observability, etc.) to ensure their pages integrate cleanly into the Dashboard shell and follow shared patterns
• Ship incrementally and continuously. This is a living product that improves every week

About You

• 4+ years of experience as a software engineer building user-facing products. You're strong across the stack: modern frontend (React, TypeScript, Next.js) and backend (APIs, databases, services)
• You've built products for developers or technical users. You understand the expectations of this audience and you hold yourself to the same bar
• You think in systems. You naturally build reusable abstractions, composable components, and clean APIs rather than one-off solutions
• You're comfortable with ambiguity. This is a new team building a new product direction. You can take a rough problem statement and turn it into shipped code
• You use AI tools in your own development workflow and have opinions on how they should work
• You ship fast without sacrificing quality. You bias toward iteration and production feedback over long planning cycles
• You communicate clearly and collaborate well with Product, Design, and other engineering teams

Bonus

• Experience working on platform
