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:

As a Video & Motion Editor, you will play a pivotal role in bringing our brand to life through compelling, high-quality video content. Your work will be instrumental in shaping our brand narrative, educating our audience, and driving engagement across a variety of digital platforms, including social media, our website, and marketing campaigns. In this role, you will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, to conceptualize, edit, and produce videos that align seamlessly with our brand vision and strategic business objectives. From crafting visually stunning motion graphics to refining video edits that captivate and inform, you will ensure every piece of content is polished, impactful, and optimized for its intended audience. Success in this role requires an expert-level understanding of video editing, motion design, and visual storytelling, along with the ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
