Align your resume to Verkada's stack
Verkada builds physical security software on distributed systems and embedded firmware. Tailor your resume to highlight C++, Python, or cloud infrastructure experience. Recruiters screen for depth in specific domains, not generalist breadth, so lead with the technical area most relevant to the team you're targeting.
Target teams with active H-1B sponsorship history
Verkada sponsors H-1B across engineering functions, but roles tied to core infrastructure and security platform teams see the most consistent sponsorship activity. Filter your outreach toward those teams and confirm sponsorship willingness before investing time in the interview loop.
Prepare your credentials for specialty occupation documentation
USCIS requires that H-1B petitions demonstrate a direct connection between your degree field and the specific role. If your degree is in a adjacent discipline like mathematics or physics, gather transcripts and course descriptions now. Verkada's HR team will need these to build a defensible specialty occupation case.
Use Migrate Mate to find open Software Engineer roles at Verkada
Verkada posts Software Engineer openings across multiple teams at once. Use Migrate Mate to filter specifically for Verkada roles that confirm visa sponsorship, so you're not wasting applications on positions that won't support your immigration status.
Negotiate your start date around H-1B cap timelines
If you're not already in H-1B status, the annual cap registration window opens in March and employment can't begin before October 1. Raise this with your Verkada recruiter early so both sides can plan around the gap rather than discover it after an offer is extended.

Find Software Engineer at Verkada JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Verkada sponsor H-1B visas for Software Engineers?
Yes, Verkada sponsors H-1B visas for Software Engineer roles. The company has a documented history of filing H-1B petitions for engineering positions across its product and infrastructure teams. If you're currently on OPT or another nonimmigrant status, confirm sponsorship intent with your recruiter before beginning the interview process so there are no surprises at the offer stage.
How do I apply for Software Engineer jobs at Verkada?
You can browse open Software Engineer positions directly on Verkada's careers page or use Migrate Mate to filter for Verkada roles that confirm visa sponsorship eligibility. When applying, tailor your application to the specific engineering domain, whether that's embedded systems, backend infrastructure, or full-stack product work, since Verkada's teams hire for focused technical depth.
Which visa types does Verkada commonly sponsor for Software Engineers?
Verkada sponsors H-1B, TN, F-1 OPT, and F-1 CPT for Software Engineer roles, and supports Green Card pathways including EB-2 and EB-3 for longer-term employees. TN is available to Canadian and Mexican nationals in qualifying engineering roles. The right category depends on your citizenship, current status, and where you are in your career.
What qualifications does Verkada expect for Software Engineer roles?
Verkada typically expects a bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, electrical engineering, or a closely related field, combined with hands-on experience in the relevant technical domain. For H-1B purposes, your degree field needs to align directly with the role's requirements. Roles in embedded systems often require C or C++ proficiency, while platform and infrastructure roles lean toward distributed systems experience.
How do I time a Verkada Software Engineer offer if I need H-1B sponsorship?
USCIS opens H-1B cap registration each March, with employment authorized from October 1 if selected. If you're transitioning off OPT or another status, you and Verkada need to align on this timeline before an offer is finalized. Cap-exempt scenarios, such as working through a qualifying research institution, don't apply here, so plan your job search around the annual registration window.
