<div class="content-intro"><h2>About Vercel:</h2> <p><span data-sheets-root="1">Vercel is the agentic infrastructure company, freeing people and agents to ship what's next. For more than a decade we've helped builders move from idea to production with speed, security, and exceptional developer experience.</span></p> <p><span data-sheets-root="1">Now we're scaling our products for both agents and people to ship and run software, built in the open and trusted by OpenAI, PayPal, Ramp, Supreme, and millions of developers worldwide.</span></p></div><h2>About the role:</h2> <p>We are looking for a <strong>Software Engineer</strong> to join the <strong>Agent Stack</strong> team and help build eve — Vercel's framework for building production-ready AI agents. Eve is to agents what Next.js is to web apps: an opinionated, batteries-included framework that lets developers write only what's unique about their agent and have the platform handle the rest. You will design and implement core framework primitives, contribute to eve's runtime (built on Vercel Workflows, AI SDK, and Sandbox), and help shape the developer experience for the next generation of AI-native applications. You will report to the <strong>Director of Vercel's Agent Stack</strong> and will be located <strong>onsite in New York City</strong>.</p> <p>If you're based within a pre-determined commuting distance of one of our offices (SF, NY, London, or Berlin), the role includes in-office anchor days on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday, even if the role is listed as remote. For location-specific details, please connect with our recruiting team.</p> <h2>What you will do:</h2> <ul> <li>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.</li> <li>Build and maintain integrations across eve's channel layer (Slack, Web Chat, WhatsApp, API, Cron, and more) and connections layer (Vercel Connect / MCP endpoints).</li> <li>Collaborate with the AI SDK, Workflows, and Sandbox teams to ensure eve's primitives compose seamlessly on the Vercel platform.</li> <li>Drive DX quality — CLI ergonomics, error messages, docs, and examples — so TypeScript/Next.js developers can ship their first agent in minutes.</li> <li>Contribute to eve's evaluation and observability story: test suites, scoring rubrics, and deployment-time evals that make agents production-safe.</li> <li>Partner with early customers and internal teams to gather feedback, diagnose agent reliability issues, and iterate rapidly.</li> </ul> <h2>About you:</h2> <ul> <li>5+ years of production TypeS
