Senior Software Engineer - Enterprise Management

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:

The EMBS (Enterprise Management and Business Services) team builds the foundational systems that let Samsara’s customers model their complex organization’s structure, configuration and metadata on the Connected Operations Cloud, so they can run their operations on Samsara without friction. Our products serve external customers directly and internal teams that deliver features on top of our platform.

As a Senior Software Engineer I, you’ll partner closely with Product, Design, and other teams to extend our organization management frameworks and capabilities, take part in exploring AI‑assisted admin and configuration experiences that make it dramatically easier to get complex organizations set up correctly.

This is a fast-paced, feedback-driven environment, where you’ll be expected to take end‑to‑end ownership of projects, influence technical direction within the team, communicate clearly with stakeholders and directly engage with customers.

This is a remote position open to candidates residing in Poland or the United Kingdom.

You should apply if:

• You want to impact the industries that run our world: The software, firmware, and hardware you build will result in real-world impact – helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.

• You want to build for scale: With over 2.3 million IoT devices deployed to our global customers, you will work on a range of new and mature technologies driving scalable innovation for customers across industries driving the world's physical operations.

• You are a life-long learner: We have ambitious goals. Every Samsarian has a growth mindset as we work with a wide range of technologies, challenges, and customers that push us to learn on the go.

• You believe customers are more than a number: Samsara engineers enjoy a rare closeness to the end user and you will have the opportunity to participate in customer interviews, collaborate with customer success and product managers, and use metrics to ensure our work is translating into better customer outcomes.

• You are a team player: Working on our Samsara Engineering teams requires a mix of independent effort and collaboration. Motivated by our mission, we’re all racing toward our connected operations vision, and we intend to win – together.

In this role, you will:

• Lead the end-to-end delivery of complex, full-stack initiatives — turning ambiguous product requirements into technical designs, implementation, and high-impact rollouts.

• Design and evolve core org management experiences, including both UI and backend services.

• Refactor existing code to address performance bottlenecks, improve UX, and reduce operational burden.

• Mentor and guide other engineers on the team through constructive code reviews and technical design feedback, fostering a culture of ownership and high engineering standards.

• Collaborate with Product to define and prioritize work grounded in real customer problems and measurable business impact.

• Operate with high autonomy and a strong sense of ownership, proactively identifying risks, driving alignment, and unblocking the team.

• Leverage and promote the use of approved AI tools in day-to-day engineering work to remove toil, accelerate delivery, and free up time for higher‑value design and customer problem‑solving.

• 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:

• 5+ years of professional industry experience building and operating production software systems.

• A track record of leading complex technical initiatives from inception to delivery in a collaborative team setting.

• Demonstrated ability to estimate, communicate, and deliver on project milestones.

• Experience with both front- and back-end development, and willingness to work across the stack.

• A growth mindset and excitement about learning new domains, frameworks, and tools; you are a quick learner who can operate with minimal supervision.

• A strong sense of ownership and agency; you proactively identify problems, drive decisions, and follow through until they are resolved.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain design choices and trade-offs to other engineers, product managers, and non-technical stakeholders.

• A desire to collaborate and openness to feedback; you can defend your ideas while being receptive to suggestions from others.

• Comfort using AI tools as part of your development workflow and a demonstrated interest in experimenting with them to improve your own and your team’s productivity.

An ideal candidate also has:

• Experience scaling systems to serve 100k+ RPS

• Experience with DynamoDB

• Experience with our tech stack: Go, React, GraphQL is a plus
