Job Description

Who we are

Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations Cloud, which allows businesses that depend on physical operations to harness IoT (Internet of Things) data to develop actionable business insights and improve their operations. Founded in San Francisco in 2015, we now employ more than 1,800 people globally and have over 1.5 million active devices. Samsara also went public in December 2021 and we’re just getting started.

We're driving change in industries that are yet to fully embrace digital transformation. Physical operations make up a massive slice of the global economy but haven’t benefited from innovation and actionable information in the way that other sectors have. The potential for scale and impact is huge.

  • Need to set up, run and troubleshoot video conferencing and streaming equipment
  • Deploy and manage systems that foster collaboration and productivity at scale
  • Plan and integrate the tools and services which help with collaboration in our workplaces 
  • Coordinate, execute, and broadcast events such as company-wide town-hall meetings to thousands of employees
  • Seek opportunities to improve how we make our next event better than our last
  • You will be responsible for our AV configuration across the different geographies, as we expand
  • Collaborate and coordinate with internal partners and external vendors across a global organization.
  • Be giving technical advice to presenters, leaders and staff on tech requirements and promote options to solve all potential issues.
  • 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:

  • 3 - 4 years of experience working in an AV environment
  • An affinity for working with all things electronic
  • A passion for learning and doing new things in a fast-paced environment
  • A college degree in a technical program (Preferably in AV, Computer Science, Information Systems or other relevant field)

An ideal candidate also has:

  • Experience with supporting live events
  • Experience interacting with Executive teams
  • Strong AV technical background with expertise in IT Infrastructure
  • Proven ability to set-up, configure and operate multimedia AV
  • Knowledge of Apple products (Macbooks, iphones, etc)
  • Demonstable skills in software programming or scripting
  • A YouTube channel for that added production value!
