About the Role

Verkada Alarms enable our customers to detect potential threats using AI and sensor technology, verify those events, and respond quickly to ensure the safety of property and people.

We are looking for a Product Manager to lead a new line of business. In this role, your mission will be to build the most advanced and performant detection and response system in the industry. You will grow our suite of traditional and AI powered sensors, and build out solutions which support everything from retailers managing hundreds of small stores to manufacturing with massive one million square foot warehouses – and everything in between.

We are committed to a thriving in-office culture. This role requires you to work onsite at our HQ in San Mateo, CA.

What You'll Do

• Own new product hardware and software product roadmap and success for Verkada, understand customers’ detection needs and physical site topologies, and translate those requirements into a landed, successful reality


• Oversee product development from concept to success, working closely with hardware and software engineering to ensure those devices meet customer needs and development timelines


• Manage relationships with regulatory and compliance entities to best understand how to meet their requirements in various jurisdictions


• Direct pricing, go-to-market positioning, and sales training for new Alarms devices


• Understand the needs of customers and channel partners, ensuring Verkada hardware scales from small to large with simplicity, speed, and flexibility

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience in product management, preferably in B2B


• Undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or similar quantitative field. MS, PhD, or MBA optional


• Proven history of launching and scaling hardware and/or embedded systems products


• Strong customer intuition, technical depth, and ability to navigate tradeoffs are critical to success in this role


• Ability to lead across strategy and execution. We pride ourselves in sweating the details and search for this in candidates


• Real passion for craftsmanship and product details. If you’ve spent days retrofitting your house with the latest smart home technology, you’ll like it here


• Foundational understanding of firmware, networking, device bring-up, electrical, and mechanical design aspects of hardware
