About the role:

Samsara is looking for a Data Product Manager to build data governance capabilities within our Revenue Operations organization. In this role, you’ll define and oversee: modeling and estimation of revenue opportunity methodologies, data quality measurement techniques, and data validation at scale. You will be responsible for the data strategy and architecture for foundational metrics that drive the business forward, and you’ll be expected to leverage leading AI tools to deliver leading edge solutions.

• You have an innate curiosity about how businesses work: One day you’ll meet with someone in waste management and the next you may be learning about the inner workings of a food distribution center.
