Senior Software Engineer - Safety Detection Precision
Role Summary
Join Samsara as a Senior Software Engineer to shape high-impact AI systems that enhance safety detection for physical operations globally.
About the Organisation
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.
As a Senior Software Engineer on the Safety Detection Precision team, you'll help close the gap between AI detection of safety risk on the road and customers' expectation of a coachable moment. You'll build the core systems that review detections, intelligently identify ambiguous cases, and automate triage on either side — both surfacing real-world data that can improve the next generation of detection models and ensuring today's detections translate into meaningful real-world risk reduction. This role is a strong fit for an engineer who enjoys shaping ambiguous, high-impact systems end-to-end and wants to directly influence customer trust and value in Samsara's Safety products.
