In this role, you will:

• Identify, design and take to market innovative solutions and features in collaboration with Design, Engineering and Marketing.
• Operate in an ‘AI-first’ mindset, utilizing data to build impactful products.
• Be the driving force behind a major product area, shaping its roadmap and owning its success.
• Have a bold vision for the future of our products while also driving execution in detail.
• Demonstrate a deep understanding of our customers’ operations, actively seeking feedback, and iterating to deliver value.
• Continuously seek opportunities for personal and professional development and adapt your approach as you progress at Samsara.
• Champion and embed Samsara’s cultural principles (Obsess Over the Customer, Build for the Long Term, Growth Mindset) as we scale globally and across new offices.

• 8+ years in a product management role.

• Undergraduate degree in Computer Science preferred; MS, PhD, or MBA also preferred.
• Strong technical understanding with the ability to establish credibility with engineers.
• Knack for gleaning customer insights from quantitative and qualitative data.
