Save Job

Account Executive Company Overview Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations™ Cloud, 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 help improve the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy, representing more than 40% of global GDP across industries such as agriculture, construction, field services, transportation, and manufacturing. Working at Samsara means defining the future of physical operations and shaping product solutions – Video-Based Safety, Vehicle Telematics, Apps and Driver Workflows, and Equipment Monitoring – with the autonomy and support of a recently public company.

About the Role This is a dynamic, high‑energy role in which you will bring the Internet of Things to mid‑size customers, building Samsara’s business and delivering the benefits of sensor data to customers. Typical sales will be $20k to $100k and include POCs, multiple stakeholders, trial management, complex pricing negotiations, and selling to executives and CXOs.

This remote position is open to candidates residing in the US (except the NYC Metro Area) and requires working hours in EST/CST. The role requires travel approximately 25% of the time.

Requirements

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, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.

Your mantra is #alwaysbeprospecting: The world of operations is vast. Your customers are often out in the field; the best way to catch them is live on the phone. Samsara’s top reps constantly research to find companies and contacts to expand their pipeline.

You have innate curiosity in how businesses work: One day you’ll meet someone in waste management, the next you may be learning about the inner workings of a food distribution center. Our top sales team members seek to learn the ins and outs of the businesses they support to make a larger impact.

You are a lifelong learner: Samsara sales are complex. You need to learn about businesses where you had little prior knowledge. The payoff is big, but you must be willing to put in the work.

You build genuine relationships with your customers: The industries we serve have relied on pen‑and‑paper solutions for years and haven’t been met with the technology we offer. Our customers value earned trust and human relationships built over time.

You want to be with the best: Samsara’s high‑performance sales culture means you’ll be surrounded by the best and challenged to go farther than you have before.
