Improve the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of the operations that power the global economy. 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.
Samsara (NYSE: IOT) sits at the center of hardware, software, AI, and the physical world. The platform processes 25+ trillion data points annually from IoT sensors, cameras, and connected devices across thousands of organizations, and that dataset is compounding: it grew from 4 trillion to 25+ trillion in four years. We're still early in turning that data into the products that will define how physical operations run, and we're hiring the engineers who will build what comes next.
We're approaching ~$2B ARR growing 30%+ year over year, with 96% of our largest customers on two or more products. The fastest-growing divisions at Samsara are tackling the hardest, most ambiguous problems at the company: building new products from scratch, applying AI and ML to massive real-world datasets, and shipping capabilities that change how organizations maintain equipment, manage fleets, and run day-to-day operations. We're looking for software engineers who want to define what ships next.
Leveling is broad and flexible: we're hiring from Senior through Principal, across platform and product, and we're open to shaping scope around the right person's strengths and interests. This role is remote and open to candidates residing in Canada. Relocation assistance will not be provided for this role.
The software you build will have real-world stakes: helping keep the lights on, getting food into grocery stores, keeping workers safe. What ships here isn't metrics on a dashboard. It shows up on the loading dock, the job site, and the dispatch floor.
We're building new systems from scratch, not babysitting old ones. You want to work where AI meets the physical world. Samsara has spent a decade building the largest proprietary dataset for physical operations.
More connected assets generate more data, more data trains better models, better models drive more value, and more value wins more assets. You believe customers are more than a number. You'll participate in customer interviews, collaborate with product managers and customer success, and use that context to build products that solve real problems operators face every day.
They define it, ship it, and own the outcome. Define and drive technical strategy for new products and platform capabilities, from backend services and APIs to the customer-facing UI. Design and ship full-stack features end to end.
You'll work across backend, frontend, and potentially mobile to deliver AI-powered products that solve real operational problems. Partner with product, design, and customer-facing teams to translate ambiguous, real-world problems into clear technical plans and measurable outcomes. Build and scale the systems behind AI-driven products, including data ingestion, APIs, and the workflows that put intelligence into the hands of operators.
Raise the bar for the engineers around you through code reviews, design reviews, technical mentorship, and by setting a standard for quality, velocity, and craft. 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 Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience. ~8+ years of experience in software design and development, including building and operating production systems at scale. ~ You're comfortable working across backend services, APIs, and frontend (web or mobile) to ship complete products. ~ Demonstrated experience leading cross‑team or cross‑org projects from inception through rollout, including managing ambiguity, driving alignment, and delivering measurable impact. ~ Experience building AI-powered or data-driven products. You don't need to train models, but you know how to take AI capabilities and turn them into products customers love. ~ Strong communication skills and the ability to translate between technical and non-technical stakeholders. ~ A track record of building: zero‑to‑one products, systems you left in a meaningfully better place, or hard problems you refused to let stay unsolved.
Experience shipping AI-powered features in production, whether that's LLM‑based products, agentic workflows, recommendation systems,
or other customer‑facing AI. Comfort with modern AI‑augmented development workflows (Cursor, LLMs, etc.) Background working with real‑world operational data (telematics, sensor data, work orders, inspections) or a strong interest in learning the domain. A proven track record of mentoring senior engineers and influencing engineering culture, standards, and best practices beyond a single team.
Side projects, open‑source contributions, or other signals of curiosity and drive outside the scope of your day job. The range of annual base salary for full time employees for this position is below. This role is also eligible for an initial RSU grant with no vesting cliff, and ongoing refresh opportunities tied to performance, subject to plan terms and conditions. 154,800 — $212,850 CAD Our compensation program delivers above‑market total compensation through a combination of base salary, performance‑based bonus/variable pay, and equity (for eligible roles) in a high‑growth public company.
Beyond compensation, we provide the foundations that enable long‑term success: a flexible, employee‑led remote model, a professional development stipend, comprehensive health and parental leave plans, and more.
