About the role

Senior software engineering role on Samsara's In-Vehicle Experience team focused on building AI-assisted voice experiences for drivers, with ownership of product direction, system architecture, and end-to-end delivery in a remote US-based setup.

Responsibilities

  • Define what to build and how to build it, shaping product direction from the engineering side.
  • Build and ship voice agent experiences from zero to one in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment. Iterate quickly based on real interactions.
  • Own the technical direction for how these experiences coordinate: how they share context, how concurrent interactions get arbitrated, how the system holds up as more experiences are added, and how its real-time decisions can be investigated by the teams that need to.
  • Make and document architectural tradeoffs where requirements are still evolving, favoring foundations that generalize as new use cases emerge over one-off solutions that don't.
  • Serve as the team's technical anchor: review designs, unblock decisions, and mentor engineers as they expand into unfamiliar technical domains.
  • Introduce new patterns for full-stack and AI-assisted engineering, and get the team using them.
  • Champion, role model, and embed Samsara's cultural principles (Focus on Customer Success, Build for the Long Term, Adopt a Growth Mindset, Be Inclusive, Win as a Team) as we scale globally and across new offices.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including ownership of products from concept through production.
  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Recent, primary experience shipping LLM/agent based products end-to-end, including evaluation of AI behavior in production.
  • Experience with memory, context, or retrieval systems for AI applications (e.g., RAG pipelines, vector databases, long-lived session context).
  • Strong programming and design fundamentals (Go, TypeScript, Python).
  • Experience designing APIs and service boundaries that other systems rely on.
  • Experience setting technical direction on a team and mentoring other engineers.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to influence technical direction without formal authority.
  • Located in and authorized to work in the United States or Canada (remote role).
