About the role:

The Mobile Experience team is responsible for our mobile application platforms, upon which other internal teams build customer-facing features. Our team has three primary areas of ownership:

Core mobile infrastructure like our React Native app container, build systems for iOS Android, metrics collection, and release management tools
App-wide user experiences like login, app settings, and navigation.
Shared cross-app UI components and frameworks like push notifications and in-app workflows.

Apart from owning specific areas of code and infrastructure we also leverage our expertise to consult regularly with development teams across the company and help them design reliable, scalable mobile features. The mix of internal and external stakeholders means that we get to do a variety of projects that span across backend, web, and mobile - this is a truly fullstack team.

You should apply if:

You want to impact the industries that run our world: The software, firmware, and hardware you build will result in real-world impact—helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.
You want to build for scale: With over 2.3 million IoT devices deployed to our global customers, you will work on a range of new and mature technologies driving scalable innovation for customers across industries driving the world's physical operations.
You are a life-long learner: We have ambitious goals. Every Samsarian has a growth mindset as we work with a wide range of technologies, challenges, and customers that push us to learn on the go.
You believe customers are more than a number: Samsara engineers enjoy a rare closeness to the end user and you will have the opportunity to participate in customer interviews, collaborate with customer success and product managers, and use metrics to ensure our work is translating into better customer outcomes.
You are a team player: Working on our Samsara Engineering teams requires a mix of independent effort and collaboration. Motivated by our mission, we’re all racing toward our connected operations vision, and we intend to win—together.
