Improve the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of the operations that power the global economy.

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, Equipment Monitoring, and Site Visibility. 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.

About the role:

As a Staff Product Designer at Samsara, you will be an instrumental leader on the Product Design team who will develop strategic designs and ship products that our customers use every day to run their operations. We’re looking for someone who is excited to shape the daily experience of those customers across industries such as transportation and logistics, construction, food and beverage, government and more. More specifically, this role will be focused on building a 0-1 product within the company. You will collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Support, and Customer Success to understand the market, identify customer needs, design concepts, and deliver value to customers.

We set up our employees for success and have built a culture that encourages rapid career development, and countless opportunities to experiment and master your craft in a hyper-growth environment.
• You’re energized by our opportunity: The vision we have to digitize large sectors of the global economy requires your full focus and best efforts to bring forth creative, ambitious ideas for our customers.
• You want to be with the best:At Samsara, we win together, celebrate together, and support each other. You will be surrounded by a high-caliber team that will encourage you to do your best.

In this role, you will:

• Spearhead and deliver on high-impact, critical design projects that unlock significant customer and business value.
• Work directly with customers to understand their needs and validate design solutions.
• Collaborate closely with product and engineering on strategy, planning, and execution.
• Drive design roadmaps that make progress over multiple quarters on key company investments.
• Articulate our product and design strategy in a way that builds excitement and motivates leadership.
• Up-level the design team in skills, tools, and practice and instill good design sense in other disciplines.
• 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.

Minimum requirements for the role:

• Expertise in interaction and visual design.
• Figma fluency (including prototyping).
• Portfolio showcasing your craft, ability to solve user problems, and quantified impact.

An ideal candidate also has:

• Ability to engage directly with customers to understand needs and validate design visions.
