About this role:

Are you a talented software engineer that is excited to learn about business and contribute to the growth of an innovative IoT startup? We’re looking for a Senior Growth Engineer who can help us build all of our e-commerce and self-service revenue products at Samsara.

As Growth Engineers we ask questions like “what can we build to improve gross margins?” and “how can we build best-in-class e-commerce experiences?” We then build, test and measure the impact of the experiments we run. We appreciate software engineers who are quick to pick up new frameworks/tools and are thoughtful about building quickly while being mindful of technical debt. The software we build has a direct impact on both revenue and our bottom line.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to work the entire stack — from how you architect and deploy to how you test the code you write. We use Python for our backends, Javascript (Vue) for our frontends and AWS to manage our infrastructure. Our team believes deeply in solving hard business problems with software, data, and exceptional cross-team collaboration. In this role, you will:

Leverage data to understand our customers and our funnel in depth, identify areas of opportunity and execute projects to drive revenue, customer growth, retention, and/or engagement

Build customer-facing e-commerce products from the ground up using a combination of custom frontends, Cloud applications, backend services, scripts, etc.

Collaborate with marketing, sales operations and product teams to implement growth initiatives

Lead engineering discussions and write thoughtful documentation and unit tests

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

Minimum requirements for the role:

4+ years of experience working in a full stack, API engineering or application services role

Experience with Python and/or Javascript (Vue)

Knowledgeable about modern web technologies and testing frameworks

Excellent analytical skills

Ability to partner with different parts of the organization to identify and solve major business problems

Desire to learn about the business side of a startup

B. S., M. S. degree (or higher) in Computer Science or related technical experience

An ideal candidate also has:

2+ years of experience on a Growth/E-commerce team

Experience using Vue in production web applications

Experience using AWS services: ElasticBeanstalk, Lambda, CloudFront

Knowledge of any of the following tools: Stripe, Contentful, or similar products
