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.

About the role:

You will partner closely with the Senior Tax Manager and the domestic provision and compliance manager on a combined provision and tax return, work with the VP of Tax on key projects, and serve as the day‑to‑day contact for our outside tax advisors. The ideal candidate is technically strong, comfortable managing advisors, and eager to turn complex international tax rules into clear, practical guidance and efficient processes.

• Partner closely with the Senior Tax Manager and the domestic provision and compliance manager to deliver a combined provision and tax return, including provision-to-return true‑ups.


• Lead special projects, including FDDEI analysis, BEAT modeling, transfer pricing coordination, automation, and international tax planning.


• Serve as the first point of contact for transfer pricing, coordinating with external advisors and internal stakeholders on intercompany arrangements, documentation, and year‑end adjustments, with high‑level oversight from Tax leadership.


• Research and document international tax technical positions, and communicate recommendations clearly to the Senior Tax Manager, VP of Tax, and finance partners.


• Gather and review foreign subsidiary financial and tax data from Accounting and Finance teams, and ensure accuracy and timeliness of inputs to the provision and returns.


• Support tax audits and notices related to international matters: gather documentation, prepare workpapers, and coordinate responses with advisors.


• Identify opportunities to improve controls, documentation, and workflows, and drive automation of international provision and compliance processes.


• Work closely with external tax advisors on research, compliance, and special projects.
