Senior Privacy Counsel

About the role

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 unique opportunity to help build global privacy and AI programs from the ground up. You won't be inheriting what didn't work; you will be creating what will work - and on a global scale with the company's key business stakeholders. You will play a significant role in shaping the direction of the privacy and AI programs. The ideal candidate will be able to hit the ground running on day one, excited to roll up their sleeves and dive in while also eager to help set the strategic vision (and know how to have fun in the process). You will report into the Chief Privacy Officer. We are committed to a thriving in-office culture. This role requires that you be on-site at our office in Austin, TX.
