Senior Data Engineer

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:

Data and Analytics is a critical team within Business Technology. Our mission is to enable integrated data layers for all of Samsara with the insights, tools, infrastructure to make data-driven decisions. We are a growing team that loves all things data — composed of data engineers, architects, analysts, and data scientists.

We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer who brings a software engineer's mindset to data infrastructure. This isn't just a pipeline-builder role — we're looking for someone who thinks in systems, builds platforms others can extend, and is excited about pushing the boundaries of what data engineering looks like in an AI-first world. You'll architect Spark-driven workflows at scale, design data platforms as products, and build the next generation of intelligent tooling including MCP servers and AI agents that automate and accelerate data engineering workflows.

Our team promotes an agile, collaborative, and supportive environment where diverse thinking, innovative design, and experimentation are welcomed and encouraged.

This is a remote position open to candidates residing in the US except the San Francisco Bay Metro Area, NYC Metro Area, and Washington, D.C. Metro Area.
