The opportunity
Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations™ Cloud, which is a platform that enables organizations that depend on physical operations to harness Internet of Things (IoT) data to develop actionable insights and improve their operations. At Samsara, we are…
What you'll do
You're a strong generalist product manager first: you've built your career on customer discovery, prioritization, and driving cross-functional teams to outcomes. The domain (consumer, fintech, marketplace, whatever) matters far less to us than the muscle.
You form your own point of view: you don't wait to be told what's worth building. You build conviction from customer evidence and can defend it, even when it differs from where the org was leaning.
You think and communicate in a straight line: you can take an ambiguous or messy problem and explain it - and your recommendation - clearly and concisely, leading with the answer rather than the journey to get there.
You want real ownership: you'll own a product area's vision, strategy, and roadmap, including the business outcome, not just the shipped feature. If you put in the work, this role won't be your last at Samsara.
You appreciate candid feedback and an experimental mindset: Samsara employees challenge the status quo and recognize failure as part of the learning process. We encourage each other to be honest and hold ourselves to high standards.
Run deep discovery with the people who live these problems: fleet owners, fuel managers, operations leaders, and finance teams — and turn what you learn into a strategy that ships.
What they're looking for
- Own the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for a key product area,: including the business case behind it, not just the backlog.
- Prototype and design MVPs yourself: clickable flows, working demos, rough cuts, often AI-assisted - to pressure-test ideas with customers before committing engineering time.
- Ship customer-facing experiences end to end with design, engineering, and: data science, and know enough about the underlying data and systems to be a credible, equal partner.
- Define success metrics, build business cases for new initiatives, and drive a: continuous cycle of experimentation and iteration grounded in data and customer feedback.
