About the role:
Samsara is hiring a Senior Software Engineer II to join our Operational Excellence (OPX) team within the Developer Experience organization. DevEx is responsible for the engineering environment that a globally distributed engineering org relies on every day, from build and deploy systems to development tooling and AI-assisted workflows that help teams move quickly and confidently. Within DevEx, the Operational Excellence (OPX) team keeps production healthy at scale. We provide engineering teams the platform capabilities, observability tooling, automated safeguards, incident management tooling, and safe feature release systems they need to deliver highly available systems, ship features with confidence, and investigate and mitigate incidents faster. OPX is focused on raising the bar for system stability, resilience, and reliability across Samsara -- building automated safeguards that protect production, ensuring engineers get the right signals at the right time, and giving teams the visibility they need to stay in control of their services. We're also investing in AI-driven operational tooling and partnering directly with product engineering teams to strengthen their operational posture. This is a remote position open to candidates residing in the ET time Zone in the US and Canada. Relocation assistance will not be provided for this role.
In this role, you will:
- Design and build automated reliability and self-healing systems that protect production at scale, including automated rollbacks, deploy safeguards, and fault mitigation, and deliver them as platform tooling that engineering teams across the company adopt for their own services.
- Own and improve incident management tooling and on-call health. Reduce alert noise, surface actionable signals, and empower engineering teams to operate their services confidently with minimal operational burden.
- Develop and evolve our observability infrastructure, including monitoring, alerting, SLOs, and performance regression detection, to give teams real-time, actionable visibility into system health and latency.
- Contribute to AI-driven operational tooling that goes beyond triage, building toward autonomous remediation where AI detects issues, takes corrective action, and self-recovers with minimal human involvement.
- Drive incident prevention by identifying systemic patterns and ruthlessly eliminating operational toil. You have deep empathy for on-call engineers and a bias toward making their lives better.
- Partner directly with product engineering teams to diagnose reliability gaps, reduce their operational burden, and help them adopt best practices for running their services.
- Define and champion operational excellence best practices across engineering through guardrails, scorecards, and standards that help teams run their services reliably by default.
- 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.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Product Software Engineer Jobs at Samsara Jobs
Align your portfolio to physical operations tech
Samsara builds software for fleets, industrial sites, and connected equipment. Highlight projects involving real-time data pipelines, IoT integrations, or embedded systems work so your background maps directly to what their product teams are hiring for.
Target teams where hardware-software integration is core
Samsara's product engineering roles vary by product surface. Roles on the fleet management or sensor data platforms tend to involve deeper systems thinking. Targeting those teams strengthens your case that your background is a specialty occupation fit for an LCA filing.
Use Migrate Mate to filter Samsara openings by visa type
Samsara posts Product Software Engineer roles across multiple teams and locations. Use Migrate Mate to filter active openings by the visa types you need so you apply to roles where sponsorship is explicitly supported rather than assumed.
Gather documentation of degree field equivalency early
Samsara's product engineering roles typically require a degree in computer science or a directly related field. If your degree title is non-standard or from outside the U.S., get a credential evaluation from a NACES-approved evaluator before USCIS reviews your I-129 petition.

Find Product Software Engineer at Samsara JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Samsara sponsor H-1B visas for Product Software Engineers?
Yes, Samsara sponsors H-1B visas for Product Software Engineer roles. The company has a consistent record of filing H-1B petitions for engineering positions, which reflects its reliance on specialized technical talent. If you are subject to the H-1B cap, your employer would need to submit a registration during the USCIS lottery window, typically in March for an October 1 start date.
How do I apply for Product Software Engineer jobs at Samsara?
You can browse and apply for Product Software Engineer openings at Samsara through Migrate Mate, which filters roles by visa sponsorship eligibility so you can confirm sponsorship is available before applying. Applications typically go through Samsara's own careers portal, where you will complete a profile and submit your resume. Engineering roles usually involve a technical screen, coding rounds, and a system design interview.
Which visa types does Samsara commonly use for Product Software Engineer hires?
Samsara sponsors several visa categories for Product Software Engineers, including H-1B, F-1 OPT and CPT, TN for Canadian and Mexican nationals, J-1, and employment-based Green Cards through the EB-2 and EB-3 preference categories. The right visa depends on your nationality, current status, and how long you have been in the U.S., so the path varies by individual situation.
What qualifications does Samsara expect for Product Software Engineer roles?
Samsara's Product Software Engineer roles are positioned at the intersection of hardware and software, so strong fundamentals in distributed systems, APIs, and real-time data handling are typical expectations. A bachelor's degree or higher in computer science or a closely related field is standard. Experience working with IoT platforms, mobile applications, or operational technology software is a differentiator for roles tied to Samsara's core products.
How long does the visa sponsorship process take for a Product Software Engineer at Samsara?
Timeline depends on your visa type. F-1 OPT transfers can happen within days of an offer. A TN for Canadian or Mexican nationals can be processed at the border on the day of travel. An H-1B cap petition requires waiting for the annual USCIS lottery, with employment starting no earlier than October 1. PERM-based Green Card filings, required for EB-2 or EB-3, typically take one to three years before a petition is even filed.
