📋 Description

• Define what to build and how to build it, shaping product direction from the engineering side • Own the technical direction for orchestrating concurrent, real-time interactions to deliver one coherent experience for the driver • Build and ship new AI-powered products from zero to one in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment • Design systems that coordinate across backend and edge boundaries, where reliability and real-time responsiveness both matter • Make architectural tradeoffs where requirements are still evolving, favoring foundations that generalize over narrowly-scoped solutions • Establish patterns for reliability, observability, and explainability in systems that make real-time decisions • Serve as the team's technical anchor: review designs, unblock decisions, and mentor firmware engineers as they grow into full-stack contributors • Bring in outside ideas and practices for full-stack and AI-assisted development • Champion the Samsara 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

🎯 Requirements

• 8+ years of software engineering experience, including ownership of products from concept through production • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience • Strong programming fundamentals (Golang, Python, or similar) • Experience building products on top of LLMs or AI agent platforms • Experience designing reliable, distributed backend systems that support multi-step, asynchronous workflows • Experience designing backend systems that serve edge, embedded, or resource-constrained clients • Experience with quality and safety considerations for AI-driven systems: validating outputs, structured responses, retries/fallbacks, and monitoring • Experience mentoring engineers as they expand into unfamiliar technical domains • Strong communication skills and ability to influence technical direction without formal authority • Located in and authorized to work in the United States or Canada (fully remote).

🏖️ Benefits

• flexible, employee-led remote model • professional development stipend • comprehensive health and parental leave plans • performance-based bonus/variable pay • equity for eligible roles
