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, and Equipment Monitoring. 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:
Samsara's Mid-Market Customer Success team advises and guides our customers, ensuring they adopt Samsara and continuously gain business value from our products. We are the trusted point of contact for Samsara's Mid-Market customers throughout their lifecycle: onboarding, adoption, advocacy, and renewal.
In this role, you will be part of our Implementation team, responsible for helping Mid-Market customers deploy and adopt our IoT solutions for their fleet and industrial assets. Picking up where our sales teams leave off, you will own the customer relationship and ensure a successful deployment of Samsara's solution. Your customers span the entire range of businesses that power our economy, including trucking and transportation, food and beverage, passenger transit, utilities, school buses, and many others. All the while building relationships with the customer, helping them learn our system and overall ensuring a successful customer relationship.
Your role will be cross-functional in nature, working alongside and connecting Sales, Support, Sales Engineering, and Product, enabling you to experience multiple aspects of a fast-growing company from within.
This role requires exceptional customer-facing communication skills, the ability to quickly understand a customer's business, and comfort explaining technology products to both executives and day-to-day users.

You should apply if:
- You want to impact the industries that run our world: Every phone call you answer and every email you send can affect whether truck drivers deliver goods on time and without accidents, whether students get dropped off safely from school, or whether power gets restored quickly after a natural disaster.
- You thrive the most when solving problems: Our constantly expanding technology and the complexities faced by our customers provide an exciting range of challenges for our Customer Success teams. With a growth mindset and a desire to learn, you will strategically partner with our customers to find unique solutions to help keep their operations safe, efficient, and sustainable.
- You are a natural relationship builder: Whether the relationship is with our customers or with cross-functional teams in Samsara, you are in constant communication and collaboration with key stakeholders to win as a team.

- You want to be with the best: At Samsara, we win together, celebrate together and support each other. You will be surrounded by the best and brightest professionals out there.
In this role, you will:
- Be on the front-lines and ensure our customers increase the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of their operations with our IoT platform.
- Manage the deployment of Samsara technology to Mid-Market customers, enabling customers to achieve quick time to value in their investment.
- Create launch plans and a roadmap to increase product usage.
- Track implementation progress, participation, product adoption, and account health.
- Run training sessions, demonstrate Samsara's technology, and work through challenges with executives and day-to-day users of the system across numerous use cases.
- Juggle multiple customer engagements in parallel and work cross-functionally to deliver an exceptional experience for our customers.
- Deeply understand the Samsara platform's capabilities and explain them to customers of all types.
- 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:
- 2-4 years of experience in a senior Customer Success, account management, or strategic consulting role. Mid-Market SaaS experience preferred.

- Experience supporting or working with technical products.
- Excellent consultative skills with experience in end-to-end system implementations.
- Proven track record of building trust and communicating effectively with a wide variety of stakeholders: executives, Product and Engineering leadership, day-to-day users of our software.
- Diplomacy, tact, and poise under pressure when working through customer issues.
- Bachelor's degree from a 4-year institution.
An ideal candidate also:

Align your degree to Samsara's hardware stack
Samsara builds IoT hardware and fleet management platforms, so recruiters look for degrees in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or embedded systems. Frame your academic projects around sensor integration, firmware, or real-time data pipelines to match the roles they actively fill on OPT.
Confirm E-Verify enrollment before accepting offers
STEM OPT extensions require your employer to be enrolled in E-Verify. Before you sign anything, verify Samsara's active enrollment status through E-Verify directly. This step protects your ability to use the full 24-month extension and avoid a gap in work authorization after your initial OPT period ends.
Target roles with H-1B transition history
Use Migrate Mate to filter Samsara's DOL Labor Condition Application filings by job title. Roles that appear repeatedly in LCA data are the ones Samsara has historically sponsored through H-1B, which tells you where the company already has a sponsorship infrastructure in place for OPT-to-H-1B transitions.
Submit your I-983 training plan early
Your STEM OPT extension requires a signed I-983 training plan between you and Samsara before you file with USCIS. Start that conversation with your hiring manager or HR contact at least 90 days before your initial OPT expires. Late starts routinely cause authorization gaps that could interrupt active employment.
Benchmark your salary against OFLC prevailing wages
Before negotiating your offer, look up your job's wage level in the OFLC Wage Search for Samsara's work location. Offers below the prevailing wage for your role and location create complications at the STEM OPT and future H-1B stages, so knowing the floor early gives you a grounded starting point.
Reference your O*NET code in application materials
STEM OPT eligibility ties to your degree's Classification of Instructional Programs code matching a STEM-designated occupation. Look up your target role in O*NET and confirm the Standard Occupational Classification code falls within a STEM-designated category before applying, so you and Samsara's HR team are aligned from the first conversation.
Samsara OPT Eligibility: Frequently Asked Questions
Does Samsara sponsor OPT visas?
Samsara doesn't sponsor OPT directly, because OPT is work authorization USCIS grants to F-1 students, not something employers file for. What Samsara does is hire students who already hold an OPT EAD. Its E-Verify enrollment also means it can support the 24-month STEM OPT extension for eligible graduates in engineering and technical roles.
Which roles at Samsara are most likely to hire OPT students?
Samsara's engineering and product teams, particularly those working on embedded systems, firmware, cloud infrastructure, and data analytics, are the strongest fit for OPT candidates with hardware or software degrees. These functions align closely with Samsara's core IoT and fleet intelligence business and reflect where the company has built out its technical hiring.
How do I start the OPT employment process at Samsara?
Once you have a job offer, provide your OPT EAD to Samsara's HR team for I-9 verification through E-Verify. If you're eligible for a STEM OPT extension, work with HR to complete the I-983 training plan and submit your extension application to USCIS through your DSO before your current EAD expires.
What's the typical timeline for moving from OPT to H-1B at Samsara?
If you're on a 12-month initial OPT, you have roughly one H-1B lottery cycle available. STEM OPT extends that window by 24 months, giving you up to three lottery attempts. Samsara's H-1B filing history suggests it sponsors H-1B for employees in engineering and technical roles, but timing depends on your start date and lottery selection.
How do I find OPT-eligible job openings at Samsara?
Migrate Mate lists Samsara roles filtered for OPT-compatible positions and shows the company's H-1B LCA filing history by job title, so you can identify which functions have a sponsorship track record. Cross-reference with Samsara's careers page and filter for engineering and product roles that match your degree field for the strongest fit.
How does Samsara hire OPT students?
OPT is work authorization granted directly to F-1 students after graduation — no employer petition is required. Samsara can hire OPT students as soon as their EAD card is approved. STEM degree holders can extend OPT by 24 months when their employer is enrolled in E-Verify. Most companies that hire OPT students also support the transition to H-1B when the student's OPT period is ending.
