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:
We're building the next chapter: an agentic platform that understands operational context and takes action, with the ambition to make physical operations increasingly autonomous.
External Platform EMEA owns critical capabilities behind that transition. Depending on the team, your work could include:
- Reporting and intelligence. Own the reporting engine and products that turn the complexity of a fleet into answers customers can act on.
- Enterprise administration. Build how customers configure and control Samsara at scale, from permissions and device metadata to AI-assisted onboarding.
- Developer and agent platform. Build APIs, event systems, integrations, and tools that give applications and AI agents access to operational data and actions.
- Business-critical infrastructure. Own billing, license assignment, and usage metering: systems central to how Samsara sells, delivers, and grows its products.
In this role, you will:
- Solve complex problems and own the success of your solutions as you architect, build, test, and deliver full-stack products.
- Communicate, collaborate, and develop with engineers, platform/infrastructure teams, product managers, designers, and support teams.
- Build upon skills and knowledge across a range of technologies, such as Go, GraphQL, Typescript, React, and MySQL.
- Previous experience with these technologies is not required.
- Own the operational health of production systems as we build for the future scale of an ever-growing library of media assets.
- Make an impact on our core architecture, roadmap, and the wider engineering community.
- Champion, role model, and embed Samsara’s cultural principles (Focus on Customer Success, Build for the Long Term, Adopt a Growth Mindset, Be Inclusive, Win as a Team) as we scale globally and across new offices.
Minimum requirements for the role:
- 2+ years of experience in software development.
- Experience shipping features that are used by customers and iterate on customer feedback to inform what to deliver next.
- Strong communication skills and a desire to collaborate.
- You can explain why you build something a certain way and be open to suggestions from other engineers and stakeholders.
- A growth mindset and excitement around building new skills and expertise.Should be a quick learner and operate with minimum supervision.
- Comfort with building out end-to-end solutions.
- A preference for front-end or back-end development is okay, but you’ll need to be happy working across the stack.
- Assist in maintaining the production systems your team owns and provide operational support when necessary.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
An ideal candidate also has:
- Profound knowledge in full-stack software engineering, specifically in building scalable applications for media processing and streaming.
- Expertise in using backend and frontend technologies to build seamless, high-performance media applications.
- Exceptional problem-solving abilities and meticulous attention to detail.
- Strong communication skills for effective teamwork and project collaboration.
- Enthusiastic and committed to innovating in a fast-paced and dynamic team environment.
