About the role

Samsara’s Installation Engineers are on the front lines of ensuring customers successfully deploy our hardware and technology at scale.

• Identify risks early, propose mitigation strategies, and keep projects on track.
• Serve as a point of contact for escalations and troubleshooting during install phases.
• Provide onsite oversight for large or complex deployments, including building specifications, driving communication with installers, perform real‑time troubleshooting, and complete onsite quality checks.
• Perform first of kind installations on complex customer projects, serving as the hands-on technical expert.
• Capture lessons learned from each project to improve processes and drive continuous improvement with installation partners.
• Collaborate with internal teams (Customer Success, Implementation, and Product) to upscale, share feedback, and enhance the installation experience.

Minimum requirements for the role:

• 5+ years experience managing vehicle and/or hardware technology.
• Prior vehicle installation or fitter experience (e.g. experience installing emergency lighting, two‑way mobile radios, GPS equipment, antennas or other electrical equipment).
• Understanding of vehicle diagnostic systems, including Controller Area Networks (CAN bus) and Power Take Off (PTO) applications, for on‑road and off‑road vehicles and industrial equipment.
• Confident in electronic & system integration and specification.
• Experience in field operations coordination, implementation, and technical deployment.
• Interest in AI with the view to create tooling to operate at scale.
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to manage multiple projects in parallel.
