ProdataKey

11d

About The Position

ProdataKey (PDK) is a leading innovator in commercial access control. Our intuitive, cloud-based solutions protect life and property across thousands of facilities every day. For 10 consecutive years, PDK has been recognized among Utah’s Top 100 fastest-growing companies. The Role We’re looking for an experienced Developer Advocate to join our Software Integrations team and help grow the PDK integration ecosystem. This is a uniquely balanced role. Roughly 50% of your time will be spent collaborating with partners, helping them design, build, and troubleshoot integrations with PDK. You’ll build strong relationships, guide technical decisions, and ensure partners have an exceptional experience working with our platform. The other 50% of your time will be spent practicing what you preach—building integrations using the same developer tools you champion to our partners. You’ll have the opportunity to develop first-party integrations with key technologies, including video surveillance systems, intrusion alarms, intercoms, and business management platforms. If you love writing code, but also enjoy working with people and helping other developers succeed, this role offers the best of both worlds. Your work will directly shape how partners connect with PDK and how customers experience their physical security systems every day.
