Job Description:

Verkada’s Alarms team builds the intelligent systems that detect, verify, and respond to real-world security threats—whether it's a break-in or suspicious activity caught on video. We combine intrusion sensors, cameras, and AI to create a fast, reliable, and modern security experience. As a Senior Backend Engineer, you’ll play a key role in designing and scaling our AI-driven detection and response workflows. These systems power automated threat identification, customer notifications, video verification, and emergency dispatch—all in real time. You’ll be joining a small, high-impact team working across Verkada’s hardware and cloud platforms to keep people and property safe.

Job Responsibility:

  • Design and build low-latency, high-availability backend services that orchestrate alarm detection and response
  • Create flexible and extensible AI-powered workflows for intrusion and video monitoring use cases
  • Build distributed systems that integrate internal products and third-party services (e.g., notifications, transcription, dispatch)
  • Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, frontend, and firmware engineers to shape end-to-end customer experiences
  • Operate with autonomy and take ownership of systems from design through production
  • Champion best practices in testing, observability, and continuous deployment

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of backend engineering experience in a production environment
  • Strong programming skills—Go preferred
  • Solid grasp of distributed system design, API architecture, and event-driven workflows
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure, preferably AWS
  • Background working with databases (e.g. Postgres) and scalable data systems (e.g. Kafka, Redis)
  • Track record of delivering robust, maintainable software in fast-paced teams
  • Must be willing and able to work onsite five days per week

Nice to have:

  • Familiarity with Temporal or other workflow engines
  • Interest in building AI-integrated, real-time systems
  • Experience with Kubernetes, monitoring tools, and performance optimization
What we offer:
  • Healthcare programs that can be tailored to meet the personal health and financial well-being needs - Premiums are 100% covered for the employee under at least one plan and 80% for family premiums under all plans
  • Nationwide medical, vision and dental coverage
  • Health Saving Account (HSA) with annual employer contributions and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) with tax saving options
  • Expanded mental health support
  • Paid parental leave policy & fertility benefits
  • Time off to relax and recharge through our paid holidays, firmwide extended holidays, flexible PTO and personal sick time
  • Professional development stipend

  • Wellness/fitness benefits
  • Healthy lunches provided daily
