Careers
Join the Hive
We’re building the future of security technology with people who think differently, challenge the status quo, and aren’t afraid to reimagine what’s possible.
Sound like you? Then we might be the perfect match.
Make an impact that actually matters
At HiveWatch, we’re not just improving physical security; we’re completely reimagining it. Our mission? To fundamentally change how organizations protect their people and assets. No pressure, just the opportunity to build something genuinely revolutionary.
What you'll find here:
A tech-forward culture that embraces new ideas
Got a wild idea? We want to hear it. Seriously.
A diverse team tackling complex challenges
Different perspectives aren’t just welcome; they’re essential.
The chance to define the future
You won’t just follow best practices. You’ll create them.
An inclusive environment where every voice matters
Title schmitle. We care about your ideas, not your org chart placement.
Our values
(AKA: How we actually work)
Get gritty
Challenges don’t scare us; they energize us. We see every obstacle as an opportunity to level up. When things get tough (and they will), we dig in, learn from our faceplants, and come back stronger.
Stay in the car
When faced with gnarly problems, we don’t bail. We stay committed, roll up our sleeves, and work through the mess until we crack it. No passengers here; just people willing to do the hard stuff.
Debate, decide, deliver
We want the best ideas to win, which means healthy debate is not just allowed—it’s expected. Everyone gets a voice. But once we decide? We’re all in, fully committed to making it happen.
F*ck Title
Your job title is just words on LinkedIn. What matters is your contribution. Junior or senior, engineer or marketer—if you’ve got something to say, we’re listening. Act like an owner, because with options, you literally are one.
Act like you own it
Speaking of ownership: you’re not just an employee; you’re a stakeholder building your own future. That means being smart with resources, obsessed with efficiency, and genuinely caring about outcomes. Because they’re your outcomes.
Birthday cards over business cards
Our customers aren’t transactions, they’re relationships. We’re in their group chats, on speed dial, and yes, occasionally in their dreams (the good ones, we promise). When business doesn’t feel like business, that’s when you know you’re doing it right.
Speed with integrity
We move fast. Really fast. But never at the expense of our customers or our product. Urgency? Yes. Recklessness? Hard pass. We sprint, but we never cut corners.
Our location
El Segundo, California – where Silicon Beach meets the actual beach.
We’re headquartered right on Main Street in one of LA County’s hottest tech corridors. Our modern office puts you minutes from LAX, world-class beaches, and some seriously good food. Think laid-back beach vibes meets entrepreneurial energy.
Why El Segundo rocks:
- Easy access to freeways and public transit
- Thriving tech community full of innovators like us
- Walking distance to incredible restaurants and coffee shops
- The perfect “work hard, beach harder” lifestyle
Hear from the team
"I work with brilliant, motivated people from every background imaginable, and I learn from them daily. We're collaborative to our core, and when we win, we all win together. Everyone at HiveWatch owns our success."
Rhiannon Brooks, Product
"You don't have to choose between cutting-edge tech and meaningful work here. Every day we're bringing together different perspectives to redefine how we keep people safe. With everything happening in the world, knowing I'm making a real difference? That matters."
Jordan Hill, Product
"What I love about working in the HiveWatch GSOC is the way we operate as one unit. HiveWatch GSOC runs on teamwork — real communication, real trust. When challenges come at us, we don't face them solo. We've got the skills and the support to come out on top, every time. This place has handed me opportunities I couldn't have found anywhere else."
Tina Simmons-Okorom, GSOC
"Rigorous and rewarding. We face real challenges delivering an incredible product and customer experience, but our diverse team and varied skillsets mean we actually achieve the ambitious goals we set. I'm learning at warp speed."
Jaret Deja, Engineering
"I've worked in the security management industry for a total of over 20 years. Working here has definitely been different; being able to work directly with each department daily is something I've never experienced before. Teamwork is everything, and every department contributes to the success of the company."
Cleveland Davis, GSOC
"You won't find another team this innovative, kind, and collaborative. We're genuinely dedicated to transforming how security teams keep people safe—together. New ideas are celebrated, transparency is expected, and teamwork is everything. I feel heard here."
Jenna Hardie, Marketing & PR
"HiveWatch gives me an environment where I contribute meaningfully while constantly growing. The team is a real community, invested in our collective success. After working places that limited my vision, I'm thriving somewhere that empowers me to show what I can do."
Denisse Hernandez, Engineering
"Nobody tells you to stay in your lane. I came in as an operator, and because I have a technical background, I started building tools to fix the stuff that was eating everyone's time — reports that took four hours by hand, data nobody had time to look at. Instead of being told that wasn't my job, I was told to keep going. A lot of what I do now didn't exist in my job description a year ago."
Daniel Gonzalez, GSOC
