Head of Recruiting Operations

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 Role

At Verkada, recruiting is one of our greatest competitive advantages. As we continue to scale globally, we're looking for a Head of Recruiting Operations to build the systems, processes, and operating model that enable us to hire exceptional talent at scale.

Reporting directly to the VP of Sales Strategy & Operations, you'll lead the teams responsible for scaling Verkada's recruiting function and organization, including Recruiting Operations, Recruiting Coordinators, Recruiting Enablement, Recruiting Systems & Tools, and our Embedded Recruiting Strategy function.

Unlike traditional recruiting organizations, Verkada operates a decentralized recruiting model where recruiting teams are embedded within the business functions they support. You'll establish the operating model, governance, and shared ways of working that enable those teams to operate as one high-performing recruiting organization while partnering closely with Recruiting Leadership, Finance, People, and business leaders to drive hiring excellence across the company.

This is a highly visible leadership role at the intersection of recruiting operations, analytics, systems, and business strategy. You'll improve how we hire by building scalable recruiting programs, leveraging data to inform decisions, and creating the operational foundation that supports Verkada's continued growth.

We are committed to a thriving in-office culture. This role is based in our San Mateo headquarters and requires working onsite.
