Software Engineering Intern - Summer '27
Job description
About Vercel:
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.
Now we're scaling our products for both agents and people to ship and run software, built in the open and trusted by OpenAI, PayPal, Ramp, Supreme, and millions of developers worldwide.
About the role

- Write production code and review pull requests alongside the engineers who maintain it
- Debug live systems by tracing issues through the stack and fixing the root cause
- Post written progress updates and flag blockers as soon as they come up
What you need
- Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, graduating in Fall 2027 or Spring 2028
- 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
