About the Role
Vercel Domains is the fastest domains search on the planet. We are looking for a product-leaning full stack Software Engineer to focus on customer experiences across the full domain lifecycle: search, purchase, renewal, and transfers, plus the notifications and touch points that make those flows clear and trustworthy.
This role is mostly TypeScript and spans both frontend and backend work. You will build polished product experiences in the dashboard and supporting services behind them. You will also work with third-party registrars to ensure accurate registration data and collaborate with Customer Support Engineering to resolve customer issues and prevent them from recurring.
What You Will Do
- Ship customer-facing Domains features end-to-end across UI and TypeScript services (search, purchase, renewals, transfers)
- Improve lifecycle touch points so customers always understand what is happening (statuses, notifications, emails, in-product messaging)
- Integrate with third-party registrars and make complex workflows feel simple, reliable, and fast for customers
- Partner with Customer Support Engineering to resolve customer issues and reduce repeat problems through better UX, tooling, and observability
About You
- Strong experience building customer-facing products with TypeScript across frontend and backend
- Experience with modern web UI development (React and Next.js)
- Experience building and integrating REST APIs and working with workflow-heavy systems (multi-step flows, background processing, eventual consistency)
- Experience designing data models and ensuring correctness for customer-critical flows (validation, auditing, reconciliation)
- Experience writing tests and instrumentation for core flows (monitoring, logging, metrics)
Bonus
- Have worked on domains concepts (registrars, DNS, nameservers, transfers, renewals, WHOIS)
- Have experience using Effect to build Typescript apps and services
