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, and Equipment Monitoring. 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:
In this newly-created Staff Software Engineer role, you will architect the technical foundation for global fleet sustainability, digitising the massive transport and infrastructure sectors that power our world. Our focus isn't on traditional cost-saving; it's on resource efficiency at a global scale.
At Samsara, Staff Engineers are hands-on technical leaders who bridge high-level architectural strategy with a relentless builder mindset. Operating with empowered autonomy, they tackle the most ambiguous challenges at the intersection of physical and digital operations.
Unlike traditional architects, they stay deeply close to the implementation—maintaining an active "hands-on" presence in the codebase—to drive rapid innovation and maintain velocity. They act as force multipliers, raising the technical bar through thoughtful mentorship and pragmatic decision-making, ensuring that every line of code translates into tangible impact for the world’s foundational industries.
In this role, you will lead the technical strategy for our Sustainability suite—from refining raw, inconsistent sensor signals into high-fidelity data for precise energy monitoring, to building the complex global infrastructure required for fleet electrification.
By leveraging Samsara’s massive operational dataset, you will establish the technical foundation
