We’re rapidly scaling this impact: today, more than 2 million Verkada devices are deployed across 170+ countries. About the Role We are looking for a founding Staff Engineer to lead the technical architecture of our next-generation Spatial Platform. For the past decade, floor plans have been static images; we are rebuilding that foundation from the ground up as a high-performance, interactive, and collaborative 3D engine. This is a greenfield role for a builder who wants to own a core pillar of Verkada’s infrastructure before we hit the public markets. You won't just build features—you will architect a platform that supports 8+ product lines, solving the "hard math" of geospatial projections and the "hard graphics" of rendering thousands of interactive assets at a buttery-smooth 60 FPS. What You'll Do Build the Rendering Platform: Design a high-performance rendering architecture that supports both an interactive viewer for high-density geospatial visualization and a precision editing surface for real-time vertex manipulation. Set the UX Bar: Partner with Design to define the interaction model for spatial editing — easing curves, snapping behavior, cursor states, loading transitions — and hold the line on pixel-level polish across the platform. Optimize for Latency: Solve the "500-element wall" with partial GPU buffer updates and custom shaders, ensuring sub-millisecond input latency during real-time vertex manipulation. Spatial Intelligence: Develop power-user tools like real-time 3D line-of-sight analysis, signal strength heatmaps, and AI-driven hardware placement suggestions. Build the Sync Engine: Own the client-side CRDT architecture (Yjs/Automerge-class) powering offline-first, multi-user editing — document model, local persistence, presence, and conflict resolution. What You Bring 5+ years of experience building complex, customer-facing web applications or high-performance graphics engines. Mastery of Web Technologies: JavaScript fundamentals (scoping, closures, contexts, prototypes, classes, etc.) and React expertise (common state and data libraries like React Query, Zustand, etc.) CS Fundamentals: A degree in Computer Science or a related field, with strong intuition for data structures, memory management, and linear algebra. Eye for Detail: Pixel-perfect execution — you notice the half-pixel misalignment, the 16ms jank, the easing curve that feels "off." You hold a high bar for visual polish and won't ship until interactions feel right. Product Grit: Ability to bridge the gap between CAD-level precision and consumer-grade UX, partnering closely with Design to turn rough specs into delightful, production-grade experiences. Mathematical Precision: Understanding of coordinate system conversions, geospatial projections, and 3D geometry. Nice to Haves Graphics Stack: Experience with Deck.gl, MapLibre, Three.js, or raw WebGL/WebGPU. Collaborative Systems: Experience with real-time sync architectures (e.g., Yjs, Automerge, or Operational Transforms). Low-Level Web: Proficiency in high-performance 2D/3D graphics (Canvas API, low-level buffer management, or custom shaders). Geospatial Mastery: Familiarity with PostGIS, vector tiling (MVT), and GIS workflows.

Who We Are Verkada is transforming how organizations protect their people and places with an integrated, privacy-sensitive AI-powered platform that includes solutions for video security, access control, air quality sensors, alarms, intercoms, and visitor management. We’ve got serious momentum in the market: more than 30,000 customers (including 100+ of the Fortune 500), a $5.8B valuation , more than $1 billion in annualized bookings, and backing from CapitalG, Sequoia Capital, General Catalyst, Felicis Ventures, Next47 and more. Physical AI is one of the most consequential technology shifts of our time, and Verkada is at the center of it. You can look at all kinds of communities to see our platform’s impact in the world. It's the retailer that uses our agentic AI to deter theft before it happens. The warehouse that uses AI-powered alerts to make sure its team is protected on the floor with proper PPE. The school that’s alerted to a threat in real-time and triggers a lockdown in seconds, not minutes. We’re rapidly scaling this impact: today, more than 2 million Verkada devices are deployed across 170+ countries. About the Role As a Staff Software Engineer on the team, you will shape Verkada's internal access management architecture, define technical strategy, and build the infrastructure used to provision, review, and audit access across the company. From evolving our in-house access platform to setting guardrails for AI-driven and agentic workflows, your technical leadership will directly impact every team at Verkada. What You'll Do Own the technical architecture of Verkada's internal access management platform, the system of record for employee, service, and non-human access across company resources. Design, build, and operate highly available, observable backend infrastructure for access provisioning and review, using modern backend languages and cloud-native tooling. Extend and harden integrations with identity providers (e.g. Okta) — custom roles, entitlement mapping, and infrastructure-as-code management of identity resources. Build automation that replaces manual access review and approval workflows, including AI-assisted risk scoring, anomaly detection, and self-service provisioning. Create automated, developer-friendly tools (including chat-based interfaces) that let teams request, approve, and audit access without manual security operations overhead. Ensure access controls meet compliance requirements. Experience in a high-growth startup environment What You'll Need Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree or equivalent 5+ years of backend engineering or security platform engineering experience Demonstrated experience designing and building access management platforms or identity infrastructure from the ground up, rather than administering third-party tools. Strong understanding of identity primitives, least-privilege access, and protocols such as OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML, or SCIM. Experience implementing role-based, policy-based, or attribute-based access control models. Experience replacing manual operational workflows with automation, ideally including AI or LLM-driven tooling. Experience operating high-availability infrastructure in cloud-native environments (AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform). Excellent written and verbal communication skills Bonus Points Experience with Okta administration and Okta APIs at scale. Experience building Slack-based or chat-ops tooling for internal workflows. Prior experience in a regulated or compliance-heavy environment (FedRAMP, SOC 2, ISO 27001).
