About the Position

Software Engineering Intern - Summer '27

Vercel is the agentic infrastructure company, freeing people and agents to ship what's next. For more than a decade we've helped builders move from idea to production with speed, security, and exceptional developer experience.

• Built and shipped at least one project in JavaScript or TypeScript, through coursework, a prior internship, open source, or your own work
• Use AI coding tools in your daily workflow, and can explain and debug every line you ship
