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:
Our Platform is the foundation of our Connected Operations solution. Think of it as a hub-and-spoke model. All our products — safety, route planning, maintenance, fuel efficiency, EV reporting etc — are the spokes that engage users. But they all connect back to the central hub.
Most organizational platforms — and we're talking about those outside of Samsara — act as a software layer between infrastructure and product. They also tend to function behind the scenes.
Our platform, however, is different. Not only do we work on core infrastructure and platform components, we also develop customer-facing features. Customers log into Samsara through the platform, interacting with everything from the login screen to dashboards, reports, settings, and alerts. Regardless of the product, the platform is the central interface for insights and management.
As a Senior Software Engineer in the Platform team, you’ll own the systems you build, shape products that prevent crashes and emissions, and create world-class systems at scale. You’ll take full technical ownership of key product areas used by thousands of fleets worldwide, solving real-world problems that cut CO₂ and keep people safe. Your ideas will shape roadmaps, influence critical decisions, and power products that make measurable impact at scale.
Work with product managers, designers, firmware and infrastructure engineers to design, build, test, and deliver end-to-end products. You’ll develop skills across multiple technologies and own the production systems in your domain. You will coach, mentor, and guide engineers in the team, while also receiving support for your own development.
