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. 

Overview

At Verkada, we're known for pushing traditional boundaries, and our B2B marketing efforts are no exception. Our New Products team owns go-to-market strategy for each new product line until it "graduates" by reaching $100M+ in annual sales.

In many ways, you'll be building a startup within a startup. You'll design and run innovative experiments and campaigns, with dedicated sales and engineering resources to help scale your strategy and your product's growth. Once your product reaches $100M in annual bookings, it graduates from New Products into a fully operationalized business unit built on the foundation you established, and you move on to the next product!

We're looking for someone with the skills and experience to contribute to pipeline generation for our new product lines from day one, while growing into a cross-functional leader at the company.
