Developer Advocate • Lead

Who you are

You have a proven track record in developer advocacy or relations, with experience leading teams that focus on enhancing developer experiences. You understand the nuances of developer needs and can translate them into actionable insights and improvements. Your background includes working with modern web technologies, particularly in the context of cloud infrastructure and developer tools.

You possess strong communication skills, enabling you to effectively engage with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. You are comfortable working in a hybrid environment and can adapt to the needs of your team and the organization. Your entrepreneurial spirit drives you to identify problems and innovate solutions that enhance the developer experience.

What you'll do

As the Developer Advocacy Director at Vercel, you will lead a team of Developer Experience Engineers who act as internal entrepreneurs. Your role involves identifying developer problems, validating them in the field, and implementing solutions at scale. You will collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Design, and Marketing teams to shape how developers experience and adopt Vercel's platform.

You will oversee the development of real applications that push the boundaries of Vercel's products, turning friction points into scalable systems and high-leverage technical artifacts. This is not a traditional developer evangelism role; instead, it focuses on product outcomes and enhancing developer relations through innovative approaches.
