About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Manage and improve our fleet of clusters, running 100s of instances deployed in every region where our customers deploy and run their code.
- Write Golang on a daily basis and use Terraform to provision infrastructure; use Nomad as the scheduler for managing workloads.
- Rethink infrastructure primitives, working with virtual filesystems, Linux primitives, and low-level virtualisation.
- Own the reliability and performance of the compute platform, including on-call coverage.
- Collaborate across teams to drive the convergence of all compute at Vercel.
Requirements
What you’ll need- 5+ years of software engineering experience, with Golang strongly preferred.
- Deep experience with virtual machines, file systems and Linux — you like knowing how things work under the hood (tcpdump, strace, and iptables are familiar tools).
- Experience building and operating distributed systems at scale; you design for performance and reliability.
- Experience with schedulers and orchestrators for managing containers and non-containerised workloads (e.g. Nomad, Kubernetes).
- Excellent problem-solving and communication skills, with a genuine enthusiasm for digging into problems that don't have obvious solutions.
- Bonus: Have worked on low-level virtualisation or sandbox execution environments.
- Bonus: Have product engineering experience and care about the developer-facing impact of infrastructure decisions.
- Bonus: Have experience with on-call operations for large-scale distributed systems.
