Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2019)

Verkada makes enterprise grade physical security systems for the Internet of Things (IoT) era. Our platform combines plug-and-play security cameras with intelligent, cloud-based software — all in a scalable, user-friendly system. Hundreds of organizations, schools, hospitals and government departments use Verkada to improve the security of their buildings and the people in them. We raised a $40 million Series B from Sequoia and Meritech earlier this year.

Following the success of our security cameras, we are building out a New Products team to rapidly develop and scale new hardware and software products for our customers. This is a great team to join if you’re interested in a startup within a startup type of environment (lots of autonomy, building products from the ground up and so on). The New Products team is hiring for a number of roles, including:

* MacOS / iOS Software Engineer — Swift and 2+ years of experience preferred.

* Front-end Software Engineer — React and 2+ years of experience preferred.

* Backend Engineer — Python / Golang and 2+ years of experience preferred.

We offer very competitive salary and equity packages, plus great healthcare, fitness and travel benefits.
