Senior Product Manager - Vehicle Routing and Dispatch

About the role:

The Routing team at Samsara is developing the world's best products for supporting drivers and empowering dispatchers to orchestrate large fleets of light and heavy vehicles. This includes route formulation and optimization, live execution and dispatch, driver navigation and task automation, and analytics for continuous operational improvement.

As a member of the Product team, you'll be responsible for building, launching, and driving end-to-end success of zero-to-one new products and businesses that delight our customers and further Samsara's vision. Samsara's approach to product management is rooted in a deep understanding of the customer. You'll learn about our customers' operations, identify the most meaningful problems that we could solve for them, and develop a product vision that maximizes the impact Samsara can make on the market. With an entrepreneurial spirit and easy-to-work-with collaborative approach, you'll help us accelerate growth of our vehicle routing business.

You should apply if:

• You want to impact the industries that run our world: Your efforts will result in real-world impact-helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, reduce emissions, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.
• You are the architect of your own career: If you put in the work, this role won't be your last at Samsara. We set up our employees for success and have built a culture that encourages rapid career development, countless opportunities to experiment and master your craft in a hyper growth environment.

• Own the strategy & long-term roadmap for one or more new products and businesses, including the monetization strategy. Define the most important problems to solve for customers, and work backwards from winning.
• Drive the execution of that strategy, delivering solutions that delight our customers and contribute significant business value. Prioritize and communicate across the team, and run feedback loops to iteratively improve the solutions you own.
• Partner with customer-facing teams to close strategic accounts, resolve escalations, and maintain relationships with top customers.
• 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.
