About the role:
Samsara’s Customer Success (CS) team advises and guides our customers, ensuring they adopt Samsara and continuously gain business value from our products. We are the trusted point of contact for Samsara’s customers throughout their lifecycle: onboarding, adoption, advocacy, and renewal. The Strategic Program Manager will prioritize, implement, and lead large-scale transformational projects across the Customer Success organization. This role requires a passion for streamlining project plans, centralizing processes, and optimizing change management.

You should apply if:
- You want to impact the industries that run our world: Every phone call you answer and every email you send can affect whether truck drivers deliver goods on time and without accidents, whether students get dropped off safely from school, or whether power gets restored quickly after a natural disaster.
- You thrive the most when solving problems: Our constantly expanding technology and the complexities faced by our customers provide an exciting range of challenges for our Customer Success teams. With a growth mindset and a desire to learn, you will strategically partner with our customers to find unique solutions to help keep their operations safe, efficient, and sustainable.

- You want to be with the best: At Samsara, we win together, celebrate together and support each other. You will be surrounded by the best and brightest professionals out there.
In this role, you will:
- Standardize the process for prioritizing and setting timelines for Customer Success projects
- Lead and launch our highest priority and most complex programs with an expert approach to internal and cross-functional change management
- Identify and tackle our toughest operational problems through processes, tools, and dashboards that scale
- Collaborate with colleagues in Customer Success and other departments, such as Support, Sales, Engineering, Supply Chain, Systems, and Operations, to drive an outsized impact
- Launch post-mortems and work with stakeholders to iterate and improve outcomes for Samsara and our 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
Minimum requirements for the role:
- 2 to 5 years of program management experience, management consulting experience, or business operation/strategy and operations experience, ideally in a SaaS environment or fast-paced IT consulting role
- Proven track record launching transformational, cross-functional projects that measurably increase team productivity and/or customer outcomes
- Ability to ramp up quickly on business priorities and derive insights from data to inform decisions
- Proven track record of building trust and communicating effectively with a wide variety of stakeholders: executives, Product and Engineering leadership, frontline managers
