Software Engineering Internship

About the Role

At Samsara, interns can work on a wide range of high-impact engineering challenges across our connected operations platform. Depending on the team, an intern may:

• Help build the backend infrastructure that powers our IoT platform, scaling data ingestion and storage systems that support over 15,000 hardware assets and tens of thousands of customers around the world.
• Work across the full stack, creating intuitive user experiences that turn data into actionable insights, while partnering closely with product and design to rapidly iterate on features that deliver real customer value.
• On the mobile side, help strengthen the infrastructure behind our React Native app, enabling feature teams to move quickly and build performant, maintainable products.
• For those focused on embedded software, projects may include building and maintaining software that runs directly on Samsara hardware, spanning areas like edge AI, multimedia frameworks, power management, and real-time data processing in demanding real-world environments.

Requirements & Tech Stack

Our engineering teams use Golang for backend development, TypeScript and React for the web client, GraphQL for data access, and React Native for mobile development. Direct experience with this exact stack is not required, but experience with similar technologies is strongly encouraged.
