About Vercel
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.
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.
About the Role
The Scheduled Tasks team builds the platform primitives that let applications and agents run work now, later, or for a long time. We own Vercel Workflows, Queues, and Cron: the systems developers use to build long-running, event-driven, and scheduled applications.
You will join a team working at the intersection of developer experience and distributed systems. Together, we are building and scaling the products that make it straightforward for developers to coordinate background work, move messages between services, and schedule work with confidence. You will collaborate closely with engineers across Vercel to make these powerful capabilities feel simple, composable, and native to the platform.
What You Will Do
- Design, build, and operate platform capabilities across Workflows, Queues, and Cron.
- Help developers build applications and agents that coordinate background, event-driven, and scheduled work.
- Build APIs, SDKs, and tooling that make it easy to define, run, and manage durable work at scale.
- Work on the distributed-systems foundations behind scheduling, message delivery, execution, retries, and state.
- Partner with
