Job Description:

You’ll lead the team responsible for Vercel’s CDN, proxy, and edge caching systems—the core infrastructure that powers performance, reliability, and cost efficiency for every customer request at Vercel. Your mandate is twofold: Operate critical systems exceptionally (latency, reliability, COGS), and align the team to product and business goals, translating strategy into a clear roadmap. You will set direction, grow people, and create the conditions for high trust, high autonomy, and high output—balancing technical depth with strong people leadership. This is a manager role, not a principal IC role. You’ll code when it’s the highest leverage (e.g., prototypes/unblocking), but your default is delegation, coaching, and alignment.

Job Responsibility:

  • Lead the team responsible for Vercel’s CDN, proxy, and edge caching systems
  • Operate critical systems exceptionally (latency, reliability, COGS)
  • Align the team to product and business goals, translating strategy into a clear roadmap
  • Set direction, grow people, and create the conditions for high trust, high autonomy, and high output
  • Balance technical depth with strong people leadership
  • Code when it’s the highest leverage (e.g., prototypes/unblocking)
  • Default is delegation, coaching, and alignment

Requirements:

  • 8+ years building and operating large-scale distributed systems
  • 3+ years managing engineers (managing managers is a plus)
  • Demonstrated success leading CDN/proxy/caching/edge or similar high-throughput, low-latency infrastructure
  • Proven ability to translate business goals into technical strategy and drive cross-org alignment
  • Track record establishing trust, psychological safety, and clear expectations
  • skilled at timely, candid feedback
  • Strong facilitator in technical conflict—you listen, synthesize, decide, and bring the team with you
  • Competence across HTTP, TLS, caching strategies, load shedding, capacity planning, observability, and cost optimization

Nice to have:

  • Have experience with Go, Lua, or Node at the edge
  • running high-signal hiring pipelines
  • Collaborating with product/PMM on customer-facing narratives
What we offer:
  • 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
