Who we are

At Samsara, we are helping improve the safety, efficiency and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy.

About the role:

In this role, you will help identify and prioritize our opportunities to invest in differentiated security capabilities, and partner closely with our engineering team to shape our security roadmap.

You should apply if:

• You want to impact the industries that run our world: Your efforts will result in real-world impact—helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, reduce emissions, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.

• Own and evolve the capabilities and roadmap for foundational security capabilities for Samsara’s cloud platform.
• Deeply understand, advocate for and support our end customer’s security needs as they use the Samsara product portfolio.
• Establish a north star and act as a flag bearer for availability, performance and support experiences that build trust with our customer base.
• Collaborate with downstream product teams and stakeholders who depend on your team’s capabilities.
• Partner with our legal and compliance teams to strategically prioritize compliance certifications and customer-facing security programs.
• Identify technology trends that create new threats and risks for cloud software, mobile, and hardware solutions.
• Collaborate with Engineering to drive the team’s quarterly release plans and long-term roadmap.
• Communicate across product line leadership to share your roadmap and evangelize your priorities.
• Partner with customer-facing teams to close strategic accounts, resolve escalations, and maintain relationships with top customers.
• Champion, role model, and embed Samsara’s cultural principles as we scale globally.

Minimum requirements for the role:

• Strong technical understanding, with an ability to grasp technical concepts & establish credibility with engineers.
• Experience defining features in the software security space, and familiarity with cloud security fundamentals.
• A proven track-record of delivering outstanding results for customers & the business.
• Demonstrated experience defining and executing product roadmap for technical areas.
• Understanding of the software development lifecycle and track record of strong partnership with diverse engineering stakeholders.
• Excellent communication skills. Must be comfortable presenting to customers and internal audiences.
• 7+ years of job experience, in relevant product, technical, and/or business roles.

An ideal candidate also has:

• Bachelors or Masters degree in a technical field; an MBA is a plus.
