This is a role for a designer who thinks in systems and sweats the details: someone equally at home setting the typographic rhythm of a landing page, and shaping how a tier-one hero feels on first load
First and foremost, this is a visual design role. Exceptional creativity and design craft for the web are what matter most. Our design engineers own turning design into production code, and you're encouraged to get hands-on in the medium yourself and carry an idea all the way to production when you want to. Either way, we're hiring you for your eye and your ideas, and coding is never a requirement. You will report to the Director of Website Design Engineering and can be remote or hybrid across our SF, NY, London, or Berlin hubs
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. If you're located beyond that distance, the role is fully remote. For location-specific details, please connect with our recruiting team
Define the visual language of Vercel's most-seen surfaces, vercel.com, nextjs.org, product launches, and Ship, and set a creative direction the whole team builds from
Create the moments people remember: hero animations, launch films, event environments, and brand-partnership work that reaches across screen and physical space
Own the creative vision end to end, from the first spark of a concept to the finished result shipped on the real web, alongside design engineers who turn your work into production code
Set the craft bar: the typography, motion, and detail that make a page unmistakably Vercel, the kind of work other teams measure themselves against
Move fluidly across mediums, web, motion, illustration, 3D, and identity, and raise the bar wherever the Vercel brand shows up
Leave a mark on the system: influence Geist and our shared patterns through work good enough to become the standard
