Who We Are

Verkada is the largest cloud-based B2B physical security platform company in the world. Only Verkada offers six product lines — video security cameras, access control, environmental sensors, alarms, workplace and intercoms — integrated with a single cloud-based software platform.

 

Designed with simplicity and scalability in mind, Verkada gives organizations the real-time insight to know what could impact the safety and comfort of people throughout their physical environment, while empowering them to take immediate action to minimize security risks, workplace frustrations and costly inefficiencies.

 

Founded in 2016 with more than $460M in funding raised to date, Verkada has expanded rapidly with 16 offices across three continents, 1,900+ full-time employees and 25,000+ customers across 70+ countries.

Overview

We are a small, dynamic team focused on building cloud-managed intercom systems. Intercom is our second newest major product line and is off to the best start of any product in Verkada’s history. Our intercom allows customers to receive calls from anywhere - at their desk or on their phone - with rich video and 2-way audio.  And we have a lot more to build.

We consider our team a startup within a startup, with a fair amount of ownership and autonomy. You’ll be working alongside a dynamic team of firmware, backend, and frontend engineers to develop this product line.

We are #10 on the LinkedIn Top Startups 2020 list and #4 on the Forbes America’s Best Startup Employers 2020. In October 2022, the company raised a $205 million Series D at a $3.2 billion post-money valuation and is backed by top-tier investors like Sequoia Capital, First Round, Meritech, Alkeon, Lightspeed, and Siemens (Next47).

Who you are

  • Excited by new products and startups

  • You think about delivering best-in-class products and experiences - not features

  • You can take a less-than-fully-fleshed-out product idea and drive it to completion

  • BS or a graduate degree in Computer Science, Maths, Engineering, or science

Requirements

  • 7+ years of industry software engineering experience

  • Mastery of JavaScript: Scoping, closures, contexts, prototypes, classes, etc

  • Strong architectural understanding of custom components, custom UI, and cross-browser support

  • Eye for design, product details, and polish

  • Understanding of HTTP and practical debugging techniques

  • Working knowledge of at least one server-side framework and one database system

  • Degree in Computer Science or related Engineering field.

Culture and Values

  • Self-motivated problem solver: At Verkada, you will tackle large, complex problems with no clear answers. 

  • Teach and learn: You will learn new technologies while being entrusted with the technical ownership of major systems, and we hope to learn something from you in turn. 

  • Growth mindset: As a fast-growing startup, every day brings new challenges and opportunities for growth, and we want you to grow with us!
