Senior Engineering Manager - Clients Platform

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 Team

The Clients Platform team at Verkada is responsible for the foundational architecture that powers our "Command" interface across all devices. We don’t just build features; we build the tools and frameworks that allow dozens of other product teams to scale. This team owns the Design System, CI/CD pipelines, and the Modularization of our Web and Mobile codebases. As the leader of this group, you will manage a team of 15-20 engineers (including tech leads and managers) to define the vision for how Verkada's software feels, performs, and scales.

What You’ll Do

• Architectural Strategy: Lead the multi-quarter effort to modularize our Web (React) and Mobile (Native) codebases to support a rapidly growing engineering org.
• Platform Vision: Define the future of our client-side stack, evaluating and driving adoption of new technologies (e.g., Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP), advanced WebView integration, or specialized build tooling).
• Manage Managers: Lead and mentor a high-performing team of 15-20, including Engineering Leads and sub-managers, focusing on career growth and high-output delivery.
• Standardize the Craft: Own the Verkada Design System and CI/CD infrastructure, ensuring that "Quality by Default" is a reality for every frontend and mobile engineer i
