About the Role
We're looking for a Lead Engineer to own Canary's Physical Access product — Mobile Key and the integrations that let hotel guests unlock doors from their phones across a wide range of lock vendors. You'll lead a pod of engineers, set the bar as a hands-on IC, and own the architecture of a system that has to be reliable, secure, and low-latency at the moment of guest arrival. You'll partner closely with Product to expand lock-vendor coverage and deepen the Mobile Key experience, and collaborate with the Arrivals and Kiosk teams where the guest journey connects. The systems you own directly gate physical entry, so discipline around security, reliability, and operational excellence is essential.
