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.

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:
We are looking for an exceptional Senior Product Manager to take a key role within one of our largest and fastest-growing businesses: Video-based Safety.
Safety is not just a feature; it is the core platform differentiator and a critical reason why customers choose Samsara.

In this role, you will:
- Define and own the end-to-end product strategy for a major new area within Video-based Safety, acting as the entrepreneurial CEO of your product line.

- Identify, design, and take to market innovative solutions that drive measurable safety outcomes, working across Design, Engineering, and Go-to-Market teams.
- Develop a bold, long-term vision for your product area, while consistently maintaining the ability to dive into execution details and unblock complex technical challenges.
- Champion, role model, and embed Samsara’s cultural principles as we scale globally.
- 7+ years of progressive product management experience with a visible history of successfully launching and scaling technically complex products.
- Prior experience shipping features that rely heavily on Machine Learning, Computer Vision (CV), or large-scale IoT data processing.
- Strong technical acumen that enables you to establish immediate credibility with engineers; comfortable engaging in technical trade-off discussions regarding model architecture, training, and deployment.

- Excellent communication skills, comfortable and effective presenting strategy and results to customers and senior executive leadership.
- Undergraduate or graduate degree (MS, PhD, or MBA) in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
- Experience defining the product roadmap for hardware/software integrated systems or SaaS products that manage physical assets.
