Sr. Manager, Business Operations

Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations™ Cloud, which is 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 are helping improve the safety, efficiency and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy. Representing more than 40% of global GDP, these industries are the infrastructure of our planet, including agriculture, construction, field services, transportation, and manufacturing — and we are excited to help digitally transform their operations at scale.

Working at Samsara means you’ll help define the future of physical operations and be on a team that’s shaping an exciting array of product solutions, including Video-Based Safety, Vehicle Telematics, Apps and Driver Workflows, and Equipment Monitoring. As part of a recently public company, you’ll have the autonomy and support to make an impact as we build for the long term.

The Sr. Business Operations Manager is a strategic partner to the leadership of Samsara’s Global Support organization, driving operational excellence and enabling data-informed decision-making at scale. This role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution, supporting senior leadership with the insights, communications, and operational frameworks needed to run and grow the business effectively.

This role owns the annual operating plan and the operating cadence that measures performance against it. On the planning side, you will own the capacity, headcount, and cost model that connects support volume, productivity, AI deflection, and staffing assumptions into a defensible operating plan — and act as the connective tissue between Support leadership, Workforce Management, and Finance. On the business operations side, you will own the reporting and business review cadence for Customer Support, turning a wide set of operational metrics into a clear narrative about what is happening, why, and what leadership should do about it.

This is a high-autonomy role for a builder. You will take ambiguous, loosely scoped problems: a cost target, a capacity gap, an unexplained trend, and return with structured analysis, a defensible model, and a recommendation leaders can act on. You will operate credibly with senior stakeholders across Support, Finance, and People, influence without direct authority, and use modern AI tools every day to work at a level of speed and rigor that would not otherwise be possible. Success in this role looks like leaders making better decisions faster, with a plan and a set of numbers everyone trusts.

This is a remote position open to candidates residing in the US except the San Francisco Bay Metro Area, NYC Metro Area, and Washington, D.C. Metro Area.
