Senior Backend Engineer - Access Control
Verkada · San Mateo, CA · Posted 13 days ago
Own the technical architecture of a new cloud-managed access control product line at a startup-within-a-startup, controlling doors, schedules, and credentials from any device.
We are a small, dynamic team focused on building cloud-managed access control systems. Access Control is our 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 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.
- 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
- 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!
- BS or a graduate degree in Computer Science, Maths, Engineering, or science
- 5+ years of industry software engineering experience
- Proficiency in at least one common server programming language (Python, Go)
- Experience in scalable distributed system design, including databases, queues and blob storage
- Experience working in an agile team software development environment
- Must be willing and able to work onsite five days per week
US Employee Benefits
- Expanded mental health support
- Professional development stipend
- Wellness/fitness benefits
- Healthy lunches provided daily
Additional Information
- We do sponsor and take over sponsorship of employment visas for this role. If we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa.
Estimated Annual Pay Range $150,000 — $300,000 USD
