Senior Product Manager, Intercom Calling

The posting, as Verkada wrote it

Who We Are

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.

About the Role

Intercom is one of the fastest-growing and most-loved product lines at Verkada, in a $1B+ market we've only begun to tap. At its core, the intercom connects people with the businesses and organizations they're visiting through a call. Whether you need to get into a building, drop off a package, ask about store hours or get help in an emergency, the intercom is how you reach a person who can help.

Calling is at the heart of the Intercom experience, and we need a product manager to own it end to end: every call, from the moment someone presses the button to the moment someone answers and helps them.

You'll own the underlying calling pipeline, enterprise-grade call routing, the context and controls that help people answering make better decisions, and the AI that automates call responses. Your job is to make every call reliable, productive and delightful.

We are committed to a thriving in-office culture. This role requires you to work onsite at our HQ in San Mateo, CA.
