Who we are
Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations™ Cloud, which is
a platform that enables organizations that depend on physical operations to
harness Internet of Things (IoT) data to develop actionable insights and improve
their operations. At Samsara, we are helping improve the safety, efficiency and
sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy.
Representing more than 40% of global GDP, these industries are the
infrastructure of our planet, including agriculture, construction, field
services, transportation, and manufacturing — and we are excited to help
digitally transform their operations at scale.
Working at Samsara means you’ll help define the future of physical operations
and be on a team that’s shaping an exciting array of product solutions,
including Video-Based Safety, Vehicle Telematics, Apps and Driver Workflows,
Equipment Monitoring, and Site Visibility. As part of a recently public company,
you’ll have the autonomy and support to make an impact as we build for the long
term.
About the role:
As a key member of our Software Engineering team, you’ll build the next
generation of high‑impact, high‑volume products that digitize the world of
physical operations. You’ll help transform industries like transportation,
logistics, construction, and manufacturing by powering solutions that connect
IoT devices, sensor data, and real‑time workflows.
You’ll work closely with Product Management, Design, and GTM teams — not just to
execute, but to help define what we build. As part of a truly cross-functional
product team, you’ll influence end-to-end product direction and ensure technical
efforts are grounded in real customer and business needs.
This is a fast-paced, feedback-driven environment. You’ll engage directly with
Sales and customers, using frontline insights to inform rapid iterations and
ensure we’re building the most impactful, relevant solutions possible.
This is a remote position open to candidates in Canada. If you’re located near
one of our offices, you’re welcome to work on-site. Expect up to 10% travel for
customer visits, on-sites, and field engagement.
