Who we are

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 helping improve the safety, efficiency and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy. Representing more than 40% of global GDP, these industries are the infrastructure of our planet, including agriculture, construction, field services, transportation, and manufacturing — and we are excited to help digitally transform their operations at scale.

Working at Samsara means you’ll help define the future of physical operations and be on a team that’s shaping an exciting array of product solutions, including Video-Based Safety, Vehicle Telematics, Apps and Driver Workflows, Equipment Monitoring, and Site Visibility. As part of a recently public company, you’ll have the autonomy and support to make an impact as we build for the long term.

About the role:

The Senior Security Engineer - Enterprise Security is responsible for building, operating, and maintaining Samsara’s core security infrastructure. Reporting to the Manager of Enterprise Security, you will collaborate with a global team of engineers to build a world-class security engineering program utilizing modern principles across corporate and product infrastructure.

You take security seriously and strive to build low-friction solutions developed in close partnership with others.

In this role, you will: 

  • Contribute to the development, deployment, and management of Samsara’s corporate security program, including endpoint detection and response, vulnerability management, device trust, SaaS posture management, and data loss prevention.
  • Be responsible for one or more key security systems or processes, working directly with stakeholders and vendors to ensure seamless integration and operation.
  • Create time-saving automation with python or another scripting language as well as low-code automation tools such as Tines
  • Write documentation and runbooks around key enterprise security needs.
  • Collaborate with Security Operations to provide subject matter expertise around security investigations and incident management.
  • 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:

  • Significant (4+ years) experience working in enterprise security in the technology sector with demonstrated impact and career progression
  • Deep subject matter expertise within enterprise security, such as extensive experience managing endpoint security toolsets, device trust efforts, email security tooling, secure access service edge delivery, data loss prevention tools, and/or SaaS posture and security programs
  • Proven history of planning and delivering high-impact, complex projects with clarity and independence
  • Willingness to collaborate and mentor more junior team members and cross-functional partners, including via documentation writing, code pairing, and other activities.
  • Scripting skills in Python, Go, or another modern scripting language

An ideal candidate also has:

  • Experience building out security programs using modern SaaS platforms such as Zscaler, Crowdstrike, Wiz, Splunk, and other tools.
  • Experience with securing common SaaS productivity tools such as Google Workspace, Slack, and Atlassian products in an enterprise environment.
