Verkada | Frontend Engineer | ONSITE Full-Time | San Mateo, CA
About the Role
I'm Kris, a manager on Access Control at Verkada.
Access Control is a core product at Verkada. We build the systems that power how customers secure and manage their offices, schools, and campuses. Our software unlocks nearly 8 million doors every day. These are mission-critical systems, not internal tools, and reliability and usability matter a lot.
My frontend team builds more than small widgets or forms. We design and deliver entire workflows that bring clarity to complex systems - managing doors, groups, schedules, users - all within a unified, elegant interface. This means working closely with world-class designers (and debating them when needed), but also having the vision and technical depth to lead when design resources are scarce.
I'm looking for a React expert who can bridge craft and leadership.
Responsibilities
- Lead technically within the frontend team, setting patterns and guiding others.
- Collaborate deeply with our web infrastructure and component library teams to shape the building blocks of our platform.
- Champion UX - because building secure, intuitive experiences at global scale is as much about design empathy as it is about React/Redux mastery.
About Verkada
This is a team for engineers who want real ownership, visible impact, and problems rooted in production reality. Verkada is pre-IPO with a $5.8B valuation, and the entire engineering org is about 350 people, which keeps scope high and teams relatively autonomous.
