Senior Software Engineer, In-Vehicle AI Experience

Samsara; United States; Remote; USD 102,000 - 132,000; Full time

Job summary

Samsara is hiring a Senior Software Engineer for our In-Vehicle Experience team. You will lead AI-assisted, multi-agent systems, shaping the direction of voice agent experiences and the services that power them.

You will influence architecture, drive fast iterations, and mentor peers while shipping in a remote setup across the US and Canada. Our team integrates software, AI, and the physical world, requiring careful tradeoffs, high ownership, and a customer-first mindset.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including ownership of products from concept through production.
• Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• Recent, primary experience shipping LLM/agent based products end-to-end, including evaluation of AI behavior in production.
• Experience with memory, context, or retrieval systems for AI applications (e.g., RAG pipelines, vector databases, long-lived session context).
• Strong programming and design fundamentals (Go, TypeScript, Python).
• Experience designing APIs and service boundaries that other systems rely on.
• Experience setting technical direction on a team and mentoring other engineers.
• Located in and authorized to work in the United States or Canada (this is a fully remote role).

Responsibilities

• Define what to build and how to build it, shaping product direction from the engineering side.
• Build and ship voice agent experiences from zero to one in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment. Iterate quickly based on real interactions.
• Own the technical direction for how these experiences coordinate: how they share context, how concurrent interactions get arbitrated, how the system holds up as more experiences are added, and how its real-time decisions can be investigated by the teams that need to.
• Make and document architectural tradeoffs where requirements are still evolving, favoring foundations that generalize as new use cases emerge over one-off solutions that don’t.
• Serve as the team’s technical anchor: review designs, unblock decisions, and mentor engineers as they expand into unfamiliar technical domains.
• Introduce new patterns for full-stack and AI-assisted engineering, and get the team using them.
• 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.
