About the role

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, and Equipment Monitoring. 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: Samsara's Core IT team builds the systems, processes, and experiences that let every team at Samsara do its best work. As a Principal Business Systems Analyst, you'll own the programs with the broadest scope and highest impact on the team. These are the ambiguous, cross-functional problems that touch multiple systems and multiple stakeholders, and that shape how Core IT operates going forward. You'll work directly with senior IT leadership and stakeholders across the business, and your frameworks and judgment will set the standard other analysts learn from. This role is a remote position open to candidates residing in the US except Alaska, Austin Metro, Boulder Metro, California, Chicago Metro, Connecticut, Dallas Metro, Denver Metro, Houston Metro, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Seattle Metro, and Washington, D.C.. Relocation assistance will not be provided for this role. You should apply if: • You want to impact the industries that run our world. Your work will have real-world impact: helping keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, reduce emissions, and keep workers safe on the job. • You want to own problems, not just execute against ones someone else already scoped. At this level, you'll define the problem space for some of Core IT's most significant and ambiguous issues, and the frameworks and standards you build will be what other analysts learn from. • You’re energized by our opportunity: The vision we have to digitize large sectors of the global economy requires your full focus and best efforts to bring forth creative, ambitious ideas for our customers. • You want to keep growing. If you put in the work, this won't be your last role at Samsara. We've built a culture that rewards fast development and gives people real room to master their craft as the company keeps growing. • You want colleagues who make you better. You'll work alongside people who support each other's work, push each other to think more rigorously, and share the credit when something goes well. In this role, you will: • Own end-to-end delivery of Core IT's highest-impact projects and programs, from problem definition through implementation, across multiple systems and business domains. • Define the problem space on the organization's most significant and ambiguous issues, rather than solving problems that are already scoped, and advise IT leadership on how to think about entire classes of problems, not just the issue in front of them. • Build the requirements practices, frameworks, and standards that other analysts and the broader team adopt, raising the bar for how Core IT approaches requirements, process design, and systems thinking. • Act as a trusted advisor to IT
