About Samsara
Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations™ Cloud, a platform that enables organizations dependent on physical operations to harness Internet of Things (IoT) data for actionable insights and operational improvements. We are dedicated to enhancing the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy, including industries like agriculture, construction, field services, transportation, and manufacturing.
As a recently public company, working at Samsara offers the autonomy and support to make a significant impact while shaping the future of physical operations with innovative product solutions.
About the Role
The Telematics team at Samsara focuses on building both the product and platform for vehicle telematics data. We provide the core telematics data platform used by other full-stack teams to power cloud solutions that improve fleet safety, efficiency, and sustainability. We also build end-user products, such as real-time vehicle reporting.
As a Senior Full-Stack Engineer on the Telematics team, you will lead the design and development of products and abstractions based on vehicle telematics data. You will drive technical discussions, identify platform gaps, influence the roadmap, and collaborate with other full-stack teams on design decisions and their downstream implications. While this role is backend-leaning due to the team's ownership of core object models, it involves both web and mobile development.
This is a remote position open to candidates in the UK and Poland.
