You'll join a small, dynamic team building cloud-managed access control systems—positioned as a startup within the larger organization with significant ownership and autonomy. The Access Control product line enables users to manage doors, schedules, and credentials from anywhere via laptop or phone.
In this role, you'll work alongside firmware, backend, and frontend engineers to develop and scale the access control product. You'll tackle large, complex problems with no clear answers, drive product ideas from concept to completion, and own major technical systems. The team values self-motivated problem-solvers with a growth mindset who can deliver best-in-class products and experiences.
Required qualifications: BS or graduate degree in Computer Science, Math, Engineering, or related field; 3+ years Linux development experience; proficiency in C/C++; strong knowledge of Linux servers, device drivers, kernel patches, and security-focused programming; embedded Linux experience preferred.
Additional desired skills: Bash scripting, Yocto, Secure Boot, Go, Python, WebRTC, distributed systems, HTTP, and practical debugging. Must be willing and able to work onsite five days per week in San Mateo. Visa sponsorship available.
