Who We Are


At Verkada, we’re building the operating system for the physical world. 


We started in 2016 with video security cameras and an intuitive cloud-based platform, and in just six years, we've expanded to include five additional product lines (access control, environmental sensors and alarms, as well as visitor and mailroom management) that help enterprises to protect and manage their people and assets. 


Today more than 14,000 organizations across 63 countries worldwide trust Verkada as their physical security layer for easier management, intelligent control, and scalable deployments. We are valued at $3.2 billion, with $360 million raised in venture capital from investors including Linse Capital, MSD Partners, L.P., Felicis Ventures, Next47, Sequoia Capital, Meritech Capital, and First Round Capital. 


This is just the beginning. The need for businesses to secure and manage their people and physical assets with scale and speed is mission critical and continues to increase. Our teams are energized by the complex challenges we work on and the platform we are building to make the schools, hospitals, businesses and communities that we live and work in safer. 



Verkada’s Product team manages the planning, development, and launch of transformative products for the enterprise physical security market. Our Product team is responsible for the development and end-to-end success of products that provide safety and security for people and assets in organizations ranging from schools to retail to healthcare and beyond. 


We’re looking for a smart and motivated Executive Assistant to support our VP of Product and the broader Product Management team. The ideal candidate is focused and detail-oriented, proactively making sure that all bases are covered. They will be highly organized and professional, resourceful, efficient, flexible and will thrive in a fast paced environment.
