Staff Software Engineer Developer Ecosystem

About the role:

The global economy runs on physical operations yet the data that powers them remains fragmented and slow. We are building the system of record that connects vehicles equipment and sites creating a central nervous system for the industries that power our world.

You will architect the developer ecosystem that allows our customers and partners to build the next generation of solutions for transport construction and utilities powered by Samsaras data and AI.

This is a remote position open to candidates residing in Poland or the United Kingdom.

Key Responsibilities:

• Architect the data nervous system for physical operations evolving our high-throughput eventing platform into the core data pipeline for customer and internal AI initiatives.
• Own the strategy and architecture for our serverless compute platform empowering thousands of developers to run complex logic directly on Samsaras data streams.
• Spearhead the technical vision for our external APIs establishing the architectural governance that ensures consistency and scalability across all Samsara products.
• Operate as a force-multiplier for engineering mentoring senior engineers and driving technical alignment on our most complex systems.
• Define the multi-year technical roadmap for our developer platform by partnering directly with product leadership and our largest enterprise customers.

What We Look For:

• Proven impact architecting and operating large-scale data streaming systems. You have the scars from building and scaling Kafka systems in production.
• A builders mindset for data and AI. You see beyond the event stream and can architect the connection between Kafka data lakes and ML infrastructure to unlock new intelligence.
• Pragmatic expertise in serverless compute. You understand the trade-offs and can design architectures that are powerful for developers and efficient to operate.
• A history of owning public-facing APIs. Youve established the technical vision and governance that enables an entire ecosystem of developers to build with confidence.
• Intellectual honesty in leadership. You align multiple engineering teams around a complex technical vision and drive it from concept to customer delivery.
• A drive to raise the standard. Your technical depth and clarity of thought elevate the engineers you work with.
