Description For Senior Software Engineer - Prototyping

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.

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Software Engineer to join our Prototyping team. Reporting directly to the Chief Technology Officer (CTO), the Senior Software Engineer will play a critical role in driving various workstreams across the organization. This role requires a strategic mindset, technical expertise, and exceptional leadership skills to ensure successful execution of projects aligned with the company's objectives.

As a Senior Software Engineer at Samsara, you will have the opportunity to impact industries that run our world, build for scale with over 2.3 million IoT devices deployed globally, and work on a range of new and mature technologies. You'll be part of a team of life-long learners, working closely with customers to ensure our solutions translate into better outcomes. The role demands a mix of independent effort and collaboration, as we race towards our connected operations vision.

In this role, you will lead and manage multiple workstreams, provide technical guidance, collaborate with cross-functional teams, mentor junior engineers, and contribute to the design of scalable systems. You'll also play a key role in identifying opportunities for process improvement and optimization.

The ideal candidate will have an advanced degree in Computer Science or related field, 4+ years of experience in software engineering, and 1+ years of experience as a Research Assistant. Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills are essential, as is experience with Agile/Scrum environments.

Samsara offers a competitive compensation package, including a base salary range of $142,503 - $239,500 USD, along with equity, bonuses, and comprehensive benefits. We welcome diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive work environment for all.
