Who We Are

Verkada is a leader in cloud-based B2B physical security. 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, Verkada has expanded rapidly with 15 offices across three continents, 2,100+ full-time employees and 30,000+ customers across 70+ countries.

Overview

As a member of our Systems Engineering team, you will lead, architect, and own the systems and processes that impact the Verkada sales, order, finance, and support teams. As our org is still young, your decisions will have a massive impact, and you will have the chance to work with the latest technology stack.

Responsibilities:

  • Your job is to write software that makes the company work well at scale. Make our systems work efficiently and reliably.
  • Decide when to build from scratch and when to use existing tools.
  • Work closely with the core software engineering team to integrate our product with our back end systems.
  • Learn new languages and frameworks quickly. 
  • You should be comfortable learning new systems and APIs quickly, and be comfortable with basic web technologies like HTML, JavaScript, restful APIs, and so forth. 

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent field, from a top program preferred.
  • 4+ years professional experience of software engineering experience.
  • Systems and software development experience: you need to be able to write production code efficiently. You are a hacker.
  • You like making people work better. If you’re the kind of person that gets satisfaction about building a tool that makes everyone’s life at work just a little better every day, you will love this job.
  • Design sensibility - we pride ourselves on building an intuitive product. We want our employees’ experience with their internal tools to be the same.
  • Process and operational thinking - you can tackle a problem independently and quickly iterate to a solution, and then also document it in a way that’s easy to understand for all audiences (especially non-technical ones!).
  • Project management and attention to detail: you’ll need to be able to scope out a project based on requirements outlined by an end user and figure out what it takes to translate an idea into reality.
  • Prior tech company or startup experience a plus.
