Job Description
At Samsara, we embrace a flexible working model that caters to the diverse needs of our teams.
Key Responsibilities
- Samsara's Go-To-Market Systems team is building the AI-first infrastructure that powers how one of the world's fastest-growing SaaS companies sells. As Engineering Manager, GTM AI Engineering, you'll lead a team of senior engineers who build and operate the AI orchestration engines, Salesforce/CRM/PRM integrations, and agentic workflows that keep our global sales organization moving.
- This role is for a hands-on engineering leader — someone who writes code, conducts design reviews, and shapes architecture alongside the team, while also owning the people processes that make a great team great: hiring, career development, performance, and culture. You'll partner closely with Sales Ops, BizTech, Finance, and GTM leadership to translate business ambitions into reliable, scalable engineering roadmaps.
- You'll report to the Sr. Director, Sales Technology Engineering, and serve as the technical and people lead for a team of 4–7 engineers. You'll set the standard — for code quality, architectural thinking, on-call discipline, and how the team shows up in cross-functional conversations.
- Lead, hire, and develop a team of 4–7 senior engineers across the full GTM AI systems stack — setting a high bar for technical excellence, collaboration, and delivery
- Stay hands-on: contribute to system architecture, participate in code and design reviews, pair with engineers on complex problems, and own critical technical decisions for the team's most impactful systems
- Own the engineering roadmap for GTM AI systems — partnering with Sales Ops, BizTech, Finance, Legal, and GTM leadership to set priorities, define milestones, and communicate progress
- Drive delivery of AI-first GTM systems: agentic AI pipelines, LLM orchestration layers, Salesforce CPQ integrations, real-time Slack applications, and AWS event-driven architectures
- Champion engineering quality: establish and uphold standards for code review, testing, observability (distributed tracing, alerting, SLAs), incident response, and documentation
- Create a culture of responsible AI development — ensuring the team follows safe data handling practices, maintains audit trails, and builds human-in-the-loop controls from the start
- Manage team health: run effective 1:1s, give timely and actionable feedback, unblock engineers, resolve conflicts, and advocate for your team's needs within the broader org
- Identify and eliminate systemic sources of friction in GTM workflows — turning recurring manual processes into automated, self-healing systems that scale with the business
- Serve as a technical authority in cross-functional conversations — representing the engineering team's perspective to VP- and C-level GTM stakeholders
Requirements
- 8+ years of software engineering experience, including 2+ years in an engineering management or tech lead role with direct reports
- Strong technical depth in Python (production services, async processing, LLM integration) and TypeScript/JavaScript (React, Node.js)
- Hands-on Salesforce platform experience: REST/Bulk/Streaming APIs, SOQL, CPQ/Steelbrick, platform events, and flow automation
- Solid AWS expertise: Lambda, SQS/SNS/EventBridge, API Gateway, S3, RDS/Aurora, CloudWatch, IAM, and multi-account patterns
- Experience building and deploying LLM-powered systems using OpenAI API, Anthropic API, LangChain, LangGraph, or equivalent agentic frameworks
- Demonstrated ability to lead multi-engineer technical efforts: writing design docs, running design reviews, and defining engineering standards
- Track record of effective people management: hiring, performance development, and building inclusive team culture
- Strong cross-functional communication skills — able to translate engineering decisions to non-technical business stakeholders
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent practical experience
- Experience designing and operating low-code automation platforms (Workato, MuleSoft, Salesforce Flow) alongside custom-built agentic systems
- Background in GTM engineering, RevOps tooling, or sales technology platform development in a high-growth B2B SaaS environment
- Familiarity with Model Context Protocol (MCP) or custom tool/function-calling patterns in production agentic systems
- AWS certifications: Solutions Architect Professional or DevOps Engineer Professional
- Experience operating in GovRAMP or FedRAMP-adjacent environments
- Prior experience scaling an engineering team through a period of significant organizational or technical growth
- #LI-hybrid
Benefits & Perks
- At Samsara, we build for the people who keep the global economy moving. We want owners, not passengers, which is why our rewards are designed to fuel high-impact builders. Our compensation program delivers above-market total compensation through a combination of base salary, performance-based bonus/variable pay, and equity (for eligible roles) in a high-growth public company. We meaningfully differentiate pay for our top performers, who have the opportunity to earn above-market compensation that can outpace the broader market over time.
- Beyond compensation, we provide the foundations that enable long-term success: a flexible, employee-led remote model, a professional development stipend, comprehensive health and parental leave plans, and more. If you’re ready to build for the long term and own the outcome, your journey starts here.
