- At least 2 years in an architect or technical leadership role

Responsibilities
- Help shape the technical direction of our developer platform — CI/CD, build systems, and the AI agents engineers interact with daily
- Design and build AI agents that take real work off engineers' plates: coding, code review, test generation, release automation, and incident response
- Scale our tooling so it can keep up as the engineering org grows, without sacrificing reliability or developer happiness
- Standardize tools and practices so good ideas spread instead of getting reinvented on every team
- Raise the technical bar through code reviews, design discussions, and mentorship
- Partner with engineering leadership on the bets worth making, and be honest about tradeoffs
- Represent Samsara externally when it makes sense — talks, open source, helping us become a place great engineers want to work
