Job Description
## About Vercel:
Vercel gives developers the tools and cloud infrastructure to build, scale, and secure a faster, more personalized web. As the team behind v0, Next.js, and AI SDK, Vercel helps customers like Ramp, Supreme, PayPal, and Under Armour build for the AI-native web.
Our mission is to enable the world to ship the best products. That starts with creating a place where everyone can do their best work. Whether you're building on our platform, supporting our customers, or shaping our story: You can just ship things.
## About the Role
Enterprise CSMs at Vercel are a critical part of the revenue engine. You own consumption growth across a portfolio of large enterprise accounts — ensuring the infrastructure customers have purchased is deeply adopted across their organisations, and that new workloads, teams, and use cases are continuously brought onto the platform.
This is not a support role. It's not account management, and it's not a renewal motion. It's a role for someone who thinks commercially, earns trust at the CTO and VP Engineering level, and understands that driving adoption across a large engineering organisation is one of the highest-leverage things Vercel can do. CSMs and AEs operate in clear swim lanes: AEs hunt net-new pipeline; CSMs own consumption.
This is a hybrid, 3 days per week in-office position based in our San Francisco, Austin or New York offices.
## What You Will Do
- Own consumption targets across a portfolio of Enterprise accounts — tracking platform usage across all products and driving consumption into new teams, workloads, and use cases
- Build and maintain deep executive relationships with CTOs, VPs of Engineering, and Heads of Platform — becoming a trusted advisor on long-term frontend and AI infrastructure strategy
- Lead Executive Business Reviews as the primary lever for consumption growth — using EBRs to surface new contacts, uncover untapped workloads, and create multi-team alignment around Vercel's platform
- Design and deliver internal hackathons and discovery sessions that create first-hand understanding of what's possible — translating executive curiosity into engineering adoption at scale
- Drive org transformation programmes with customers, helping engineering leadership redesign developer workflows, platform ownership, and tooling strategy around Vercel's capabilities
- Develop multi-year account strategies that align Vercel's roadmap to customer outcomes — identifying expansion opportunities from a position of genuine insight rather than commercial pressure
- Orchestrate cross-functional resources — Solutions Engineering, Forward-Deployed Engineers, Product, and Support — at the right moments to accelerate adoption and remove blockers
- Maintain a structured engagement discipline across your portfolio, with clear entry and exit criteria for adoption stages and consistent tracking of executive contacts, active workloads, and consumption signals
## About You- Commercially minded — you understand that CSM exists to produce revenue, not just protect it, and you're comfortable owning consumption targets and being measured on them
- Technically confident — you understand modern frontend architecture, CI/CD pipelines, and AI-native development well enough to earn credibility with senior engineers and connect platform capability to real engineering problems
- A long-game thinker who builds relationships over months and years, not quarters — comfortable navigating complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise environments with patience and precision
- An EBR practitioner — you know how to run executive engagement programmes that go beyond slide decks, building the kind of senior relationships that surface new workloads and drive genuine consumption growth
- Energised by organisational complexity — you understand how change happens inside large engineering organisations and know how to build the internal coalition that makes platform adoption stick
- Disciplined and structured — you bring rigour to how you manage your portfolio, with a proactive engagement cadence and clear visibility into what's happening across every account
- Curious, direct, and opinionated — you push customers toward better architectural and strategic decisions, and you bring genuine enthusiasm for what Vercel's platform makes possible
## What This Role Is Not- Not reactive support or ticket escalation management
- Not a transactional renewal motion focused on QBR checklists
- Not a role with narrow ownership or a pre-defined playbook to follow
This role requires judgment, technical curiosity, and the ability to operate across strategic, commercial, and hands-on dimensions simultaneously.## 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.
- 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 OTE pay range for this role is $170,000 - $212,500. 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. Your recruiter can share more details during the hiring process.
