Engineering Manager, Atlas (Spatial Systems)

<div class="content-intro"><h3><strong>Who We Are</strong></h3> <p>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. </p> <p>We’ve got serious momentum in the market: more than 30,000 customers (including 100+ of the Fortune 500), <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/12/03/verkada-capitalg-valuation-security.html">a $5.8B valuation</a>, 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.</p> <p>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. </p></div><div class="section page-centered" data-qa="job-description"> <div class="section page-centered" data-qa="job-description"> <h3><strong>About the Team</strong></h3> <p><strong>Atlas</strong> is the founding engineering team responsible for the <strong>Maps</strong> mandate at Verkada. Our mission is to transform the physical world into a high-performance, interactive digital twin. We build the <strong>Spatial Systems</strong>—the core rendering engine, tiling infrastructure, and collaborative APIs—that power the visual interface for our entire product ecosystem.</p> <h3><strong>The Platform Mandate</strong></h3> <p>Atlas does not build siloed features. We build a <strong>Spatial Platform</strong> that our core Product Teams—including <strong>Cameras, Access Control, Sensors, Alarms, and Admin</strong>—use as their canvas. You will be responsible for ensuring that as we scale to 8+ product lines, the map remains a performant, unified, and "multiplayer" experience.</p> <h3><strong>What You’ll Do</strong></h3> <ul> <li><strong>Zero-to-One Execution:</strong> Act as a "Player-Coach" to build the V1 of our Spatial System from the ground up. You will own the initial delivery of our image pipeline and set the technical standards for our collaborative editing protocols.</li> <li><strong>Platform
