About the role
Are you a platform engineer who wants to build the foundation that lets an entire growth product engineering organization move faster? At Samsara, we are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to join Growth Product & Engineering and own the platform our growth and marketing teams build on. As we push toward AI-assisted and agentic development, our velocity is increasingly bottlenecked not by feature work but by foundational gaps in infrastructure, security, and tooling.
What they're looking for
- 6+ years of professional software, infrastructure, DevOps, platform, or site reliability engineering experience
- Hands-on AWS production experience (IAM, Lambda, networking, and multi-account organizations) with Infrastructure as Code such as Terraform, AWS CDK, or CloudFormation
- Cloud security posture management (CSPM) or our tools like Wiz, semgrep, synk, etc
- Experience building observability into distributed systems: centralized logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting (for example Sentry, Datadog, CloudWatch, or Grafana)
- Experience with product and feature development: building and shipping customer-facing product features, not just internal platform and infrastructure work
- Experience building the guardrails that make AI or agent-generated code safe to merge and deploy: mutation testing, coverage enforcement, ephemeral preview environments, or automated rollback
