Vercel is the agentic infrastructure company building the platform for the next generation of software where products are built, extended, and operated by AI agents. You will own product design for Vercel Marketplace and Vercel Connect—products that help developers and agents discover, provision, and connect external services to their workloads on Vercel.
You will design both sides of the ecosystem: builders choosing and managing services, and partners creating and operating integrations. Your work spans the Vercel dashboard, CLI, API-driven agent flows, v0, and partner tools. Both products are live with active customers and partners; you will improve current journeys while defining how integrations and agent access should work next.
Key responsibilities include owning the builder and partner experiences across discovery, installation, billing, management, and removal. You will define how developers and agents discover, provision, configure, and use databases, services, and integrations. You'll turn complex technical concepts like OAuth, permissions, environments, credentials, billing, and provider constraints into simple, trustworthy experiences.
You will build and test working prototypes independently using coding agents to explore product behavior and technical constraints. You'll work directly with customers and partners, using research, support signals, and product data to find opportunities, define success measures, and prove improvements through experiments. You'll work through implementation with engineers and maintain quality through launch and iteration.
This role requires creating reusable patterns and structure for Marketplace and Connect as there is no mature design playbook yet. You'll take on foundational product problems, including provider dependencies and platform operations, where some high-impact work will be largely invisible to users.
You should have independently owned ambiguous, technically complex product work from problem framing through launch and iteration. You reason about systems while maintaining high standards for interaction and visual craft. You use qualitative and quantitative evidence, define success measures, and change direction when evidence challenges hypotheses. You make complex products feel clear and trustworthy, including edge cases, recovery, language, and accessibility. You work directly with Product and Engineering, read APIs or code when useful, and explain tradeoffs clearly. You independently use coding agents to prototype interactions, inspect implementation, and learn unfamiliar systems—curiosity and agency with these tools are required.
Bonus experience includes designing marketplaces, integrations platforms, partner ecosystems, or other multi-sided products; understanding OAuth, permissions, secrets, billing, developer tooling, or infrastructure products; shipping AI or agent experiences; or having an engineering background.
