About the role:

Samsara’s Training team owns a net-new product area offering mobile-friendly, in-depth training courses to ensure drivers and workers remain safe on the job. Our initial Safety Training product was released to customers in the Fall of 2023, and integrates with Samsara’s existing safety features and coaching workflows to assign training courses that address unsafe driving behavior detected on the road. Looking ahead, our team is excited to provide authorship tools that reduce the burden of creating course content, and expand our training integration with other areas of the platform, such as compliance and site visibility.

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.
