Of 26 open roles, 10 are in Sales, 8 in Engineering, 2 each in Recruiting and Customer Success, and 1 each in People, TDAC, Marketing and Finance; hiring is weighted toward go-to-market roles, and 14 postings are tied to Redwood City.

Who they need

Seniority: Senior is the largest group (11 of 26), followed by 5 mid, 4 manager, 4 VP, 1 junior and 1 unknown.

Skills named most: physical access control systems, Ambient Pulsar, security cameras, AWS, Python, Azure, GCP, SaaS, MEDDPICC, L2 switching, VLANs, Ashby

Locations: Redwood City (14), New York City (3), Bengaluru (2), Boston (2), and one each in Texas, Connecticut, Virginia, Florida and Los Angeles. 22 of 26 roles are marked remote; the postings do not state a country for remote roles. The People Operations Coordinator and Data Verification Operator roles are not remote, and the two Bengaluru roles have remote status unspecified.

How to use this

If you're applying: Sales is the largest department (10 of 26 roles), spread across New York City, Boston, Connecticut, Virginia, Florida, Texas and Redwood City. 22 of 26 roles are marked remote. Sales engineering roles ask for hands-on networking (L2 switching, VLANs, MLAG), so check each posting's requirements, such as PACS, networking or MEDDPICC, against your background before applying.

If you're selling or recruiting: Sales hiring is the largest concentration: six East Coast-located sales leadership and channel postings (the three RVP postings may be one opening), three Senior Sales Engineer roles and one Enterprise Sales Engineer. Five roles opened in the last 30 days against 11 in the prior 30, with none closed, so the flag reads slowing.
