Job Description
Who We Are
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.
About the Role
We are a small, dynamic team focused on building cloud-managed access control systems. Access Control is Verkada’s second major product line. Our Access Control solution allows users to manage their doors, schedules, and user credentials from virtually anywhere on their laptop or phone.
We are building a line of embedded devices with screens, and we need an amazing UI engineer to build interfaces for these devices. You’ll have the challenge of building the kind of intuitive experiences that our customers have come to expect from our web and mobile software, but in a much more constrained hardware environment. You’ll also be helping develop a UI framework for all Verkada screen devices now and in the future.
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 engineers and UX designers to develop these products.
What You'll Do
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 product components, 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!
What You Bring
BS or a graduate degree in Computer Science, Maths, Engineering, or science
3+ years of experience in UI development on embedded devices, video games, and/or mobile applications
Android mobile application development experience preferred but optional
Proficient in C/C++
A strong sense of visual design and UX
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
Must be willing and able to work onsite five days per week
