In Samsara's Business Technology Core IT team, we work to deliver awesome systems, support, and experiences that enable our teams to be as impactful as possible. As a member of the team, you'll be in charge of owning the technology and processes that enable our people to do their best work. We are responsible for identifying, designing, implementing, and supporting the applications and integrations that create a streamlined experience for Samsarians.
As a Sr. IT Engineer on the Identity & Access Management team, you will be a technical owner for Samsara's identity infrastructure — including Okta, Google Workspace, and our Workato-based automation platform (OWL-IT). You will drive strategic initiatives, ensure platform availability and compliance, and directly contribute to reducing IT toil through automation and engineering excellence. You will also act as a subject matter expert for StateRAMP/FedRAMP controls and serve as Tier 3 escalation support for the team's most complex and sensitive requests.
This is a remote position open to candidates residing in the US except the San Francisco Bay Metro Area, NYC Metro Area, and Washington, D.C. Metro Area.

• Administer and support Google Workspace, including Marketplace app management, group and OU configuration, offboarding automation, and service account governance.
• Lead and contribute to Identity & Access Management initiatives including birthright provisioning, role-based access controls, Saviynt RBAC, and access lifecycle automation.

• Provide Tier 3 escalation support for complex, sensitive, and security-related IT incidents, including SCIM, provisioning failures, and authentication issues across identity-integrated systems.
• Build and maintain clear documentation including runbooks, architecture diagrams, access policies, and business process flows in Confluence.
• Partner with Security, GRC, and cross-functional IT teams to strengthen the security posture of Samsara's identity and access management infrastructure.

• Mentor teammates and help elevate the technical capabilities of the broader IT Engineering team.
• 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.
