Overview
Join Vercel as a Visual Designer to shape the brand's web presence and create memorable digital experiences. Work collaboratively with design engineers to bring your creative vision to life. About Vercel: Vercel is the agentic infrastructure company. We free people and agents to ship what’s next. For more than a decade, Vercel has shaped how the web is built. As the team behind Next.js, v0, and AI SDK, we create products that help builders move from idea to production with speed, security, and exceptional developer experience. Now, software is entering a new era, and the next generation of products will not just be used by people. They will be built, extended, and operated by agents. We are building the platform for that future, trusted by companies like OpenAI, PayPal, Ramp, Supreme, and millions of developers worldwide.
What You Will Do
- •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.
Benefits
- •Competitive compensation package, including equity.
- •Inclusive Healthcare Package.
- •Learn and Grow - we provide mentorship and send you to events that help you build your network and skills.
- •Flexible Time Off.
- •We will provide you the gear you need to do your role, and a WFH budget for you to outfit your space as needed.
- •The San Francisco, CA base pay range for this role is $208,000 - $312,000. Actual salary will be based on job-related skills, experience, and location. Compensation outside of San Francisco may be adjusted based on employee location. The total compensation package may include benefits, equity-based compensation, and eligibility for a company bonus or variable pay program depending on the role.
About You
- •Above all, a distinctive eye and original ideas. Exceptional visual design instincts and creativity are the heart of this role, and the web is where most of your work will live.
- •A portfolio spanning brand systems and work across multiple digital and physical mediums, anchored by strong, shipped web work.
- •8+ years of design experience.
- •Meaningful hands-on range across several of these: motion, 3D, illustration, environmental and event design, and interaction.
- •Systems-minded: you design components and patterns, not one-offs, and think about how each choice fits a broader system.
- •You've shaped launch moments, events, or brand-partnership surfaces under real deadlines, and you know how to make a moment land.
- •You thrive collaborating with engineers and understand the web as a medium: how layouts behave, what's buildable, how design becomes code.
- •Comfortable in a technology-driven environment; experience with developer, B2B, or SaaS products is a plus.
- •A self-starter and egoless collaborator who takes feedback well and gives it generously.
- •Familiar with Vercel, with working knowledge or experience preferred.
