Verkada is transforming how organizations protect their people and places with an integrated, AI-powered platform. A leader in cloud physical security, Verkada helps organizations strengthen safety and efficiency through one connected software platform that includes solutions for video security, access control, air quality sensors, alarms, intercoms, and visitor management.
Over 30,000 organizations worldwide, including more than 100 companies in the Fortune 500, trust Verkada as their physical security layer for easier management, intelligent control, and scalable deployments. Founded in 2016, Verkada has expanded rapidly with 15 offices and 2,200+ full-time employees.
We're looking for a strong systems software engineer to lead our camera fleet management team. This role sits at the intersection of systems engineering, site reliability, and data-driven operations. You'll own and drive the effort to safely release camera software at scale to upwards of a million devices. You will be responsible for building and maintaining the infrastructure, tooling, and processes that ensure reliable deployments across our entire camera fleet.
Camera firmware releases are critical to our business and our customers. They include but not limited to delivering new models to AI models running on camera. You'll build the systems and establish the processes that make releases safe, predictable, and data-driven. This is a high-impact role where your work directly protects our customers and our reputation.
This is a technical leadership role where you'll architect solutions, develop critical tools, and establish the standards that keep our camera infrastructure running smoothly. You'll be equally comfortable diving deep into Linux internals, designing data pipelines for release metrics, and making high-stakes decisions during critical incidents.
Verkada is committed to fostering a workplace environment that prioritizes the holistic health and wellbeing of our employees and their families by offering comprehensive wellness perks, benefits, and resources. Our benefits and perks programs include, but are not limited to:
