Responsibilities
- Build trusted relationships across R&D and conduct discovery to identify the most important capability, knowledge, adoption, and performance needs.
- Stay current on emerging technologies, AI models, developer tools, and changes in how technical teams work; translate those developments into practical recommendations for how R&D employees can use AI and agents, validate their outputs, and determine where automation is appropriate versus where human judgment, expertise, or coordination remains essential.

- Create and test functional prototypes, tools, and workflow automations using AI-assisted development environments, APIs, low-code platforms, and other appropriate technologies.
- Lead complex programs from discovery through launch and adoption, establishing clear ownership, milestones, dependencies, risks, communications, feedback loops, and decision points across interdependent teams.
- Make informed recommendations about what to build, configure, buy, integrate, transfer, scale, or stop.
- Serve as the senior functional leader for R&D Enablement, creating clear ownership, reusable practices, and execution leverage across employees and partners contributing to the roadmap.
- Provide guidance and mentorship to more junior team members and partners while leading through expertise and influence rather than formal authority.

- At Samsara, we build for the people who keep the global economy moving.
