  • Lead, mentor, and grow a team of high-performing engineers across multiple locations, fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment.
  • Work closely with Product, UX/UI Design, and AI teams to develop features, define requirements, and optimize user experiences on our Web platform.
  • Guide the team in architecting scalable and maintainable solutions, leveraging the latest technologies and best practices in web development.
  • Ensure the web applications meet high standards of reliability, performance, and security, employing automated testing and monitoring systems.
  • Oversee the development lifecycle, from planning through deployment, using Agile methodologies to ensure timely and efficient delivery of product releases.
  • Champion new technologies, tools, and processes to enhance the capabilities of the web development teams.
  • 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.
  • Hire, develop and lead an inclusive, engaged, and high performing team.

Minimum requirements for the role:

  • 8+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 5 years leading web development teams.
  • Software Architecture: Strong knowledge of web architecture patterns with a focus on scalability and maintainability.
  • Frontend Development Expertise: Deep experience with modern JavaScript frameworks, particularly React, and strong proficiency in TypeScript. Understanding of functional and component-based architecture, state management (e.g., Redux), and performance optimizations.

An ideal candidate also has:

  • Leadership Skills: Proven ability to build and scale diverse engineering teams, and a track record of delivering successful, large-scale web applications in a fast-paced, agile environment.
  • Collaboration & Communication: Excellent interpersonal and cross-functional collaboration skills, with the ability to communicate complex technical concepts effectively.
  • A customer-focused mindset and good product sense
