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 :

At Samsara, we're building the future of industrial IoT, and our Hardware Solutions Firmware (HW Solutions FW) team is at the heart of it all. This isn't just another firmware job; it's a chance to be on the ground floor of innovation. As a key member of our newly formed team, you'll be instrumental in prototyping groundbreaking new products and technologies, influencing the direction of core hardware components (like SoCs!) long before products even hit the drawing board.

Imagine having the power to shape Samsara's future product roadmap. You'll be working hands-on with bleeding-edge technologies in Cellular & Wireless Connectivity, Location Technologies, and IoT, all within the exciting realm of embedded systems. You'll dive deep into evaluating these technologies, working closely with external vendors and SoC manufacturers, and directly influencing their roadmaps to align with Samsara's vision.

This role offers unparalleled visibility and impact. You'll collaborate directly with product managers, software engineers, and hardware designers, providing critical feedback that drives decisions for our next-generation products and enhances existing ones. If you're a self-starter who thrives on solving ambiguous challenges, taking ownership of your projects, and directly contributing to customer success, you'll find your perfect fit here.
