Litigation and E-Discovery Counsel

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.

Samsara is looking to expand its in-house legal roster with an agile litigator able to work across litigation, compliance, and privacy matters. The ideal candidate will enjoy serving as a key contributor on a diverse range of high-stakes litigation and pre-litigation issues, as well as helping to build out processes and procedures for a rapidly growing, global business. The role requires the ability to advise cross-functional teams on litigation strategy and to collaborate and manage outside counsel. You will succeed in this role if you recognize that litigation requires more than a one-size-fits-all approach, and you’re willing and able to adapt your style to meet the nature of the dispute, the parties involved, and business priorities.

Samsara values collaborative individuals who excel in a dynamic, fast-paced environment, can work across multiple teams and on multiple projects, can take in many inputs and communicate practical advice, have great interpersonal skills, and are comfortable in high-pressure situations.

This is a remote position open to candidates residing in the US except Alaska, Austin Metro, Boulder Metro, California, Chicago Metro, Connecticut, Dallas Metro, Denver Metro, Houston Metro, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Seattle Metro, and Washington, D.C.
