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.
This is a very exciting opportunity to join Verkada’s growing legal team as its first and lead Global Corporate Counsel. You will report directly to the General Counsel and work hand–in-hand with Verkada’s executive leadership as a trusted legal advisor on a wide variety of corporate legal issues across the company. Your first priority will be to guide us through IPO readiness, and then lead the company’s legal strategy behind its capital structures, public company reporting obligations, corporate governance, complex transactions, board management, and regulatory compliance. From day one, you will need to roll up your sleeves and do the work, as you will operate on a lean team of “one” while you lay the foundation necessary to scale our global corporate legal function and eventually build a rockstar team. If you enjoy building from the ground up, this role is for you!
