About the role
Samsara’s cloud-connected sensor platform collects observations about the world in near real-time. Samsara builds an extensive set of products, including battery-powered, wireless sensors, Linux-based IoT gateways, and Internet-connected dashcams. These devices are the building blocks Samsara uses to construct enterprise solutions for a wide range of verticals, including commercial fleet management and industrial monitoring.
What they're looking for
- Substantial bare-metal and RTOS experience - Zephyr, FreeRTOS, or equivalent. You have made scheduling, memory and timing decisions. Mutexes and semaphores are everyday tools for you
- You have brought up new boards. First power-on of unproven hardware, at the bench with the electrical engineer who drew it up, working out whether the bug is in your code, a library, the schematic, or the part itself
- Fluency in the low-level interfaces - SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, ADC and the ability to debug the seam between hardware and software
- Real bench instincts. The usage of an oscilloscope, network analyzer, or RF spectrum analyzer, is how you form a hypothesis, not what you reach for after the print statements run out
- Senior-level scope. You have led work spanning hardware, firmware, cloud and quality from concept to shipped product. You have consistently driven consensus across teams
- Cross-layer judgment. You can trace how a decision at the driver level surfaces in a customer's experience three layers up, and you make that trade-off on purpose
