About the Role:

Vercel is hiring a Head of Technical Marketing, a deeply technical leader who thrives on educating and empowering users. This role isn’t just about showcasing your own expertise; it’s about helping customers and prospects unlock their own potential. Reporting directly to the CMO, you’ll lead a talented team of content creators focused on clear, supportive, and inspiring technical content, including high-quality technical blogs, guides, and tutorials.

If you’re based within a pre-determined commuting distance of one of our offices (SF, NY, London, or Berlin), the role includes in-office anchor days on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. If you're located beyond that distance, the role is fully remote. For location-specific details, please connect with our recruiting team.

What You Will Do:

  • Deliver compelling live presentations at webinars, conferences, and field events, becoming a trusted voice in the enterprise community.

  • Prototype and produce cutting-edge (“frontier”) technical content, showcasing the full power of Vercel’s platform.

  • Ensure Vercel’s technical marketing is approachable, helpful, and empowering, creating a space where everyone feels comfortable asking questions.

  • Build, mentor, and lead a high-performing Technical Marketing team.

  • Collaborate closely with Product Marketing, Demand Generation, and Sales, focusing on education, clarity, and technical storytelling that drives awareness and adoption.

About You:

  • You have 8+ years of technical experience (engineering or solutions architecture), with a passion for creating educational content and experiences.

  • You’re skilled in modern web technologies, especially JavaScript frameworks (Next.js preferred), AI SDKs, and cloud platforms.

  • You have 5+ years in technical marketing, developer advocacy, or a similar developer-focused content role.

  • You’re a gifted communicator, able to distill complex technical concepts into clear, engaging writing, presentations, demos, and videos.

  • You are deeply empathetic, patient, and genuinely enjoy teaching and enabling others.

  • You’re confident and comfortable speaking at conferences, webinars, and customer events.

  • You thrive collaborating cross-functionally

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 $224,000 - $336,000. Actual salary will be based on job-related skills, experience, and location.
