San Mateo, California, United States Verkada Full time
About Us

Verkada stands as the premier cloud-driven B2B physical security platform globally. Our unique offering encompasses six distinct product categories — video surveillance systems, access management, environmental monitoring devices, alarm systems, workplace solutions, and intercoms — all seamlessly integrated within a singular cloud-based software framework.

Engineered for simplicity and scalability, Verkada empowers organizations with real-time insights, enabling them to identify potential threats to safety and comfort within their physical spaces, while equipping them to take prompt action to mitigate security vulnerabilities, workplace challenges, and costly inefficiencies.

Founded in 2016, Verkada has rapidly grown, currently boasting 16 offices across three continents, over 1,900 full-time employees, and serving more than 25,000 clients in over 70 countries.
Position Overview

We are a nimble, innovative team dedicated to developing cloud-managed intercom systems. This product line is our second newest major offering and has achieved remarkable success, setting records for any product in Verkada's history. Our intercom solution allows users to receive calls from any location — whether at their desk or on their mobile device — featuring high-quality video and two-way audio. There is much more to create and enhance.

We view our team as a startup within a startup, providing significant ownership and autonomy. You will collaborate with a vibrant group of firmware, backend, and frontend engineers to advance this product line.

Recognized as #10 on the LinkedIn Top Startups 2020 list and #4 on Forbes America's Best Startup Employers 2020, Verkada secured a $205 million Series D funding round at a $3.2 billion post-money valuation, backed by leading investors such as Sequoia Capital, First Round, Meritech, Alkeon, Lightspeed, and Siemens (Next47).
