Alarm.com is the leading cloud-based platform for smart security and the Internet of Things. More than 6 million home and business owners depend on our solutions every day to make their properties safer, smarter, and more efficient.

The mobile team is distributed across different locations (with different time zones) of Alarm.com, so the candidate must be able to communicate well within such environment and work independently on self-directed tasks. Motivated and creative problem solvers will have opportunities to influence future projects.
