Through the Vonage Communications Platform (VCP), Vonage develops and markets cloud APIs enabling Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) for messaging, conversational commerce, voice, AI and video services. This allows developers to embed advanced capabilities into applications, workflows and systems, without back-end infrastructure or interfaces. VCP is fully programmable and includes Vonage’s Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) and Contact Centre as a Service (CCaaS) applications that enable companies to transform how they communicate and operate from the office or remotely – providing the flexibility to perform better and enhance customer engagement.

Around the world, VCP serves more than 120,000 business customers, has a global community of more than one million registered developers and a highly scaled platform. Vonage continues to invest in R&D in key global hubs for digital talent such as Tel Aviv, Wroclaw, London and San Francisco, as well as Bengaluru. As an employer that has embraced hybrid and remote work even before the pandemic, Vonage also offers partial to fully remote roles, alongside other flexible arrangements.
