We know that applying for internships can be time-consuming, and we truly appreciate your effort.
Key Responsibilities
Samsara interns dive into challenging, real-world projects with the same freedom and responsibility as our full-time engineers. You won't just be learning; you'll be building and making a tangible impact on our global customers from day one. You'll join a team working at a scale few engineers encounter early in their careers: over 2.3 million IoT devices deployed globally, petabytes of real-time data, and software that directly affects the safety of people doing some of the most essential work in the world. You'll be paired with an Engineering mentor, get rare exposure to customers, and have visibility to engineering leadership throughout your internship. You'll also have access to the latest AI tools, with generous token allotments, giving you the leverage to ship more and learn faster.
At Samsara, interns can work on a wide range of high-impact engineering challenges across our connected operations platform. Depending on the team, an intern may help build the backend infrastructure that powers our IoT platform, scaling data ingestion and storage systems that support over 15,000 hardware assets and tens of thousands of customers around the world. They may also work across the full stack, creating intuitive user experiences that turn data into actionable insights, while partnering closely with product and design to rapidly iterate on features that deliver real customer value.
On the mobile side, an intern could help strengthen the infrastructure behind our React Native app, enabling feature teams to move quickly and build performant, maintainable products. For those focused on embedded software, projects may include building and maintaining software that runs directly on Samsara hardware, spanning areas like edge AI, multimedia frameworks, power management, and real-time data processing in demanding real-world environments.
Throughout the interview process, we will dig into your past experience, what you are most interested in learning next, and where you would be the best fit across our engineering teams.
Our engineering teams use Golang for backend development, TypeScript and React for the web client, GraphQL for data access, and React Native for mobile development. Direct experience with this exact stack is not required, but experience with similar technologies is strongly encouraged.
Requirements
Currently in your penultimate year of study (or second-to-last year of an integrated Master’s / MEng), on track to complete a Bachelor’s or integrated Master’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, or Data Science, with expected graduation no earlier than Summer 2028.
This internship is hybrid: 3 days per week in our London office.
This internship is a full-time, paid experience — interns are expected not to be enrolled in school or university full-time while working at Samsara.
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.
