• Collaborate with Strategic Finance, FP&A, Legal, Comms, and Marketing to gather information related to quarterly financial performance and ensure accuracy of figures and alignment of external messaging.
• Monitor and internally summarize industry trends and peers’ commentary and financial results by continuously tracking sell-side research, financial news, and transcripts.
• Establish a robust understanding of industry trends, market participants, and competitive dynamics in the physical operations and the broader enterprise software markets.
• Champion, role model, and embed Samsara’s cultural principles as we scale globally and across new offices.
