Job description

About the company:

the company is the agentic infrastructure company. We free people and agents to ship what’s next.

For more than a decade, the company has shaped how the web is built. As the team behind Next.js, v0, and AI SDK, we create products that help builders move from idea to production with speed, security, and exceptional developer experience.

Now, software is entering a new era, and the next generation of products will not just be used by people. They will be built, extended, and operated by agents.

We are building the platform for that future, trusted by companies likeOpenAI, PayPal, Ramp, Supreme, and millions of developers worldwide. Whether you’re building our products, supporting our customers, growing our community, or shaping our story, you’ll help define what comes next.

About the role:

We're hiring a DevRel Engineer to work inside the product teams building the company's agentic infrastructure: AI Gateway, Sandbox, and the primitives that come after them. You'll sit with product and engineering, build with these tools before anyone else can, and show the world what they make possible. You will report to the Head of AI Infrastructure and can be located anywhere.

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.

When applying, include a link to something you made that taught developers something, a talk, a repo, a post, a video. Applications without one will not be considered.

What you will do:

• Build agents and applications on AI Gateway and Sandbox before they ship, then turn what you learn into demos, templates, and open source projects developers actually clone and run.
• Teach developers how to build with agentic infrastructure through writing, talks, videos, and live coding. You set the canonical examples the ecosystem emulates.
• Shape the products themselves. You sit in the same planning meetings as the PMs and engineers, and your job is to hit the rough edges first and make sure they get fixed before launch.
• Own the important pieces of launches: example repos, launch demos, docs contributions, and the first wave of answers when developers start asking questions.
• Bring the outside in: track how developers across the ecosystem are building agents, where they get stuck, and what they're reaching for that doesn't exist yet.

About you:

• 5+ years in engineering, DevRel, or DX roles, with software you can point to.
• You've built and shipped AI applications or agents: you know tool calling, model routing, and sandboxed code execution from using them.
• Strong TypeScript, and you're at home in the Next.js and AI SDK ecosystem.
• You have a public body of work: talks, posts, open source, or videos.
• You can take a half-finished API and produce a working demo and a clear explanation in the same week, often times the same day.
• You've changed a product roadmap with developer feedback.

Bonus if you:

• Maintain or contribute to an open source project other developers depend on.
• Have spun up a microVM and have opinions on why isolation matters for agents.
• Have shipped something real on the company with the AI SDK.

Benefits:

• 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.
