Principal Product Manager - Identity and Access Management

Who we are

Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations™ Cloud, which is a platform that enables organizations that depend on physical operations to harness Internet of Things (IoT) data to develop actionable insights and improve their operations. At Samsara, we are helping improve the safety, efficiency and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy. Representing more than 40% of global GDP, these industries are the infrastructure of our planet, including agriculture, construction, field services, transportation, and manufacturing — and we are excited to help digitally transform their operations at scale.

Working at Samsara means you’ll help define the future of physical operations and be on a team that’s shaping an exciting array of product solutions, including Video-Based Safety, Vehicle Telematics, Apps and Driver Workflows, Equipment Monitoring, and Site Visibility. As part of a recently public company, you’ll have the autonomy and support to make an impact as we build for the long term.

About the role:

We’re looking for an experienced Principal Product Manager to drive vision for Samsara’s platform security capabilities.

Our focus on security is critical as we help customers achieve their safety and compliance goals across Samsara’s platform offerings.

In this role, you will help identify and prioritize our opportunities to invest in differentiated security capabilities, and partner closely with our engineering team to shape our security roadmap. The features you collaborate to develop and launch will have a significant impact on our customer’s experience. You will partner with stakeholders in our global team across the US and Europe.

This role is open to candidates residing in the US.

We set up our employees for success and have built a culture that encourages rapid career development, countless opportunities to experiment and master your craft in a hyper growth environment.

• Own and evolve the capabilities and roadmap for foundational security capabilities for Samsara’s cloud platform.
• Deeply understand, advocate for and support our end customer’s security needs as they use the Samsara product portfolio.
• Establish a north star and act as a flag bearer for availability, performance and support experiences that build trust with our customer base.
• Collaborate with downstream product teams and stakeholders who depend on your team’s capabilities. Manage a robust “intake” process to understand emerging security risks and opportunities.
• Partner with our legal and compliance teams to strategically prioritize compliance certifications and customer-facing security programs.
• Identify technology trends that create new threats and risks for cloud software, mobile, and hardware solutions.
• Collaborate with Engineering to drive the team’s quarterly release plans and long-term roadmap. 
• Communicate across product line leadership to share your roadmap, evangelize your priorities, and seek out areas of joint innovation.
• Partner with customer-facing teams to close strategic accounts, resolve escalations, and maintain relationships with top customers.
• 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
