Redefine and lead the DevRel function as a systems-level discipline, evolving it from awareness and feedback into an entrepreneurial engine that solves developer problems at scale across the full DevRel lifecycle.
Set strategy and direction for Vercel Labs, guiding teams that build, ship, and iterate on real-world projects to uncover friction, validate opportunities, and influence product direction.
Operationalize agent-first developer advocacy, using agentic tools and workflows to scale technical content, examples, documentation, education, and outreach — including authoring content with agents and for agent consumers.
Turn developer insight into durable product impact by establishing tight feedback loops with Product and Engineering and ensuring validated problems lead to shipped solutions.
Define the technical and narrative standard for how Vercel demonstrates modern web and agent-native development through reference architectures, demos, benchmarks, and opinionated guidance.
Measure and optimize DevRel impact, tying Labs output to developer activation, retention, expansion, and ecosystem growth rather than vanity metrics.
Requirements
Experience leading a DevRel, Developer Advocacy, or equivalent technical program with ownership across strategy, execution, and measurable outcomes.

Demonstrated ability to act as an internal entrepreneur, taking ambiguous developer problems from discovery through validation to scalable solutions.
Hands-on familiarity with agent-driven development, including LLMs, agent tooling, and emerging developer workflows, and a point of view on how these change the discipline of DevRel.
Track record of influencing product direction through developer insight, prototypes, experiments, or direct contribution.
Comfort operating in high-ambiguity environments, making tradeoffs and prioritization decisions based on leverage and impact.
