About the role:
We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Global Compliance team. Commercial drivers in the US and EMEA are subject to drive time limits that dictate their maximum allowable daily, weekly and monthly driving times. There are numerous exemptions to these limits that are available to drivers under certain circumstances. This team helps our customers manage this complexity and optimise their driver operations while remaining compliant with the law.
You will develop systems that allow customers to record, monitor and report on drive times, while making it easy for them to prove compliance to regulators and law enforcement. You will work with others in the team to ensure the system is operating smoothly. You will work across the entire Samsara stack, by writing firmware code, working on our cloud-based back end systems and building features into our mobile apps.
This is a remote position open to candidates based in the United Kingdom. Relocation assistance will not be provided for this role.
You should apply if:
- You want to impact the industries that run our world: The software, firmware, and hardware you build will result in real-world impact—helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.
- You want to build for scale: With over 2.3 million IoT devices deployed to our global customers, you will work on a range of new and mature technologies driving scalable innovation for customers across industries driving the world's physical operations.
- You are a life-long learner: We have ambitious goals. Every Samsarian has a growth mindset as we work with a wide range of technologies, challenges, and customers that push us to learn on the go.

- You are a team player: Working on our Samsara Engineering teams requires a mix of independent effort and collaboration. Motivated by our mission, we’re all racing toward our connected operations vision, and we intend to win—together.
In this role, you will:
- Work with product managers, designers, and engineers to build and deliver features across firmware, back-end, browser and mobile. GoLang, GraphQL, Typescript, React and React Native are some of the components of our technology stack. Direct experience with these technologies is not required.
- Solve problems that enable our product for our global customers
- Work with the team to maintain the production systems that you own and keep a high bar for system operation.
- Coach, mentor and guide engineers in the team, playing a part in their growth and development. Also, receive support on your own personal development.
- 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
Minimum requirements for the role:
- 4+ years of experience designing and building products in a skilled software engineering team.

- Experience designing, building and maintaining large-scale systems.
- Ability to estimate, communicate, and deliver upon project milestones with your team.
- Proactive growth mindset, always looking at ways to improve the status quo.
