AI Engineering Manager

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's Go-To-Market Systems team is building the AI-first infrastructure that powers how one of the world's fastest-growing SaaS companies sells. As Engineering Manager, GTM AI Engineering, you'll lead a team of senior engineers who build and operate the AI orchestration engines, Salesforce/CRM/PRM integrations, and agentic workflows that keep our global sales organization moving.

This role is for a hands-on engineering leader — someone who writes code, conducts design reviews, and shapes architecture alongside the team, while also owning the people processes that make a great team great: hiring, career development, performance, and culture. You'll partner closely with Sales Ops, BizTech, Finance, and GTM leadership to translate business ambitions into reliable, scalable engineering roadmaps.

You'll report to the Sr. Director, Sales Technology Engineering, and serve as the technical and people lead for a team of 4–7 engineers. You'll set the standard — for code quality, architectural thinking, on-call discipline, and how the team shows up in cross-functional conversations.

YOU SHOULD APPLY IF

• You thrive at the intersection of hands-on technical leadership and people management — you're equally comfortable in a design review and a 1:1 conversation about career growth
• You believe great managers unblock their teams by being technically credible, not by staying out of the code
• You've built and shipped production AI systems and know what it takes to take an agentic workflow from prototype to enterprise reliability
• You're energized by ambiguity — you can take a fuzzy business need from a VP of Sales and turn it into a concrete engineering roadmap
• You care about building an inclusive, high-trust team where engineers grow and do the best work of their careers

#LI-hybrid Total Rewards

At Samsara, we build for the people who keep the global economy moving. We want owners, not passengers, which is why our rewards are designed to fuel high-impact builders. Our compensation program delivers above-market total compensation through a combination of base salary, performance-based bonus/variable pay, and equity (for eligible roles) in a high-growth public company. We meaningfully differentiate pay for our top performers, who have the opportunity to earn above-market compensation that can outpace the broader market over time.

Beyond compensation, we provide the foundations that enable long-term success: a flexible, employee-led remote model, a professional development stipend, comprehensive health and parental leave plans, and more. If you’re ready to build for the long term and own the outcome, your journey starts here.

Flexible Working

At Samsara, we embrace a flexible working model that caters to the diverse needs of our teams. Our offices are open for those who prefer to work in-person and we also support remote work where it aligns with our operational requirements. For certain positions, being close to one of our offices or within a specific geographic area is important to facilitate collaboration, access to resources, or alignment with our service regions. In these cases, the job description will clearly indicate any working location requirements. Our goal is to ensure that all members of our team can contribute effectively, whether they are working on-site, in a hybrid model, or fully remotely. All offers of employment are contingent upon an individual’s ability to secure and maintain the legal right to work at the company and in the specified work location, if applicable.
