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.
We are looking to hire a Principal Architect, AI Ecosystem & Partner Integrations to define the technical architecture, integration patterns, and development standards for third-party integrations into the Verkada platform.
This role will work closely with the broader Partner Integrations team to support and maintain strong technical relationships with each integration partner. The Principal Architect will help ensure partner integrations are well-designed, stable, secure, supportable, and continuously validated as both Verkada and partner platforms evolve.
A key responsibility will be establishing the technical standards and best practices used across Verkada’s partner integration ecosystem. This includes source control standards, code review practices, API usage guidelines, documentation expectations, security practices, reusable design patterns, testing requirements, and overall development best practices. The Principal Architect will also help drive these standards throughout the Field organization so customer-facing technical teams are building consistent, supportable, and scalable solutions.
This role will create the tools, frameworks, and reference architectures that make it easier for partners and field teams to build with Verkada. This includes developer toolkits, API wrappers, sample code, validation automation, integration templates, reference architectures, and “art of the possible” demos that help partners move from concept to MVP quickly while giving the Field practical examples they can use with customers.
The Principal Architect will also work closely with Product and Field leadership to ensure external partner efforts are aligned to customer needs, product direction, support readiness, and field execution. The goal is to ensure partner integrations are not only technically sound, but also valuable to customers, deployable by the field, and trusted by Verkada and its partners.
This role will be a senior technical leader within the AI Ecosystem & Partner Innovation function, helping turn Verkada’s integration efforts into a scalable ecosystem strategy that drives customer value, partner innovation, field adoption, and platform differentiation.
