You’ll partner closely with AI engineers, backend engineers, and cross-functional teams to shape shared execution patterns, define platform contracts, and evolve the foundations that support S+Engine and future AI use cases. You’ll be empowered to make architectural decisions, move fast on early iterations, and help turn emerging AI capabilities into a durable, production-grade platform that other teams can build on with confidence.

This is a remote position open to candidates residing in the US except the San Francisco Bay Metro Area, NYC Metro Area, and Washington, D.C. Metro Area.

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.
• You are the architect of your own career: If you put in the work, this role won’t be your last at Samsara. We set up our employees for success and have built a culture that encourages rapid career development, countless opportunities to experiment and master your craft in a hyper growth environment.
• You’re energized by our opportunity: The vision we have to digitize large sectors of the global economy requires your full focus and best efforts to bring forth creative, ambitious ideas for our customers.
• You want to be with the best: At Samsara, we win together, celebrate together and support each other. You will be surrounded by a high-calibre team that will encourage you to do your best.

In this role, you will:

• Build and evolve core AI platform capabilities that enable teams to develop, run, and scale GenAI-powered applications across Samsara.
• Design and implement shared execution patterns, APIs, and services that support multi-step AI workflows and system integrations.
• Develop reliable, extensible backend systems that power AI-driven experiences used across the sales funnel and beyond.
• Work hands-on across the stack, from backend services and execution infrastructure to integration with AI models and tooling.
• Collaborate closely with AI engineers, data scientists, product partners, and sales operators to turn emerging AI use cases into production-ready platform capabilities.

Minimum requirements for the role:

• 6+ years of professional software engineering experience (excluding internships/contract roles), with a strong emphasis on building and operating large-scale, production backend or platform systems.
• Hands-on experience building and operating GenAI-powered systems in production, including integration with large language models (LLMs) or similar AI services.
• Experience designing or implementing GenAI workflows such as prompt orchestration, tool execution, routing, or multi-step reasoning pipelines.
• Proven experience designing and implementing distributed systems that support multi-step execution, asynchronous workflows, and well-defined service contracts.
• Strong proficiency in backend programming languages (e.g., Python, Java, Go, or similar) and experience building reliable services with clear input/output schemas.
• Expert in Python and GenAI frameworks (e.g., LangChain, OpenAI SDK, MCP, etc.)
• Familiarity with GenAI quality and safety considerations, such as validation of model outputs, structured responses, retries/fallbacks, and basic evaluation or monitoring approaches.
• Strong product sense and ability to work in fast-paced, cross-functional environments.
• Located in and authorized to work in the United States (this is a fully remote role).

An ideal candidate also has:

• Experience working on AI products in a sales, go-to-market, or revenue operations context.
• Familiarity with enterprise tools like Salesforce, Gong, Outreach, or similar CRM/enablement platforms.
• Experience integrating with vector databases, retrieval systems, or streaming voice/chat pipelines.
• A track record of leading major technical initiatives or mentoring engineers in high-growth teams.
• Exposure to infrastructure considerations such as cost optimization, model evaluation, observability, and latency management.
