About the role:

As a Senior Inside Sales Engineer at Samsara, youll be splitting your time across two major focus areas; (1) supporting senior-level sellers in an attempt to grow existing customers, or win new customers, and (2) contributing to the SE Team as a Senior resource. There is an expectation that a Senior SE is highly accountable for each technical sale, meaning that strong storytelling, objection handling, custom workarounds, advanced integrations, and extensive hands-on experience are requirements to win most deals. Takeaways from these activities should be shared across the SE Team via team meetings, messaging tools, etc.

Additionally, a Senior ISE is accountable for carving out time to source and deliver product information, conduct testing of alpha products/features, manage projects, and build process improvements and automation that will scale the broader Inside SE Team. A Senior ISE will still carry a quota, so a successful Senior ISE will possess excellent time management skills and will maintain a clear focus on retiring quota in addition to Senior responsibilities.
