Job Description

Staff Design Engineer

Academy

• Own UX and interaction quality for a surface or area of our AI platform, shaping how agentic, intelligent experiences look, feel, and behave • Design and prototype production-quality interaction patterns for AI-powered features — with meticulous attention to visual and interaction detail • Use vibe coding and AI-assisted design tooling to move fluidly from concept to validated, production-ready patterns • Collaborate closely with product and engineering on strategy, planning, and execution — including how the team implements AI-driven product work • Work directly with customers to understand their needs, validate designs, and inform strategy • Provide technical expertise and knowledge transfer to Samsara's internal design team on visual craft, interaction quality, and implementation practices • Deliver all agreed-upon project deliverables on time and to spec

Job Requirements

  • 6+ years of product design experience designing UX/UI for web and mobile applications, with a track record of staff-level scope and impact
  • Exceptional visual design craft — demonstrated mastery of typography, layout, spacing, and detail — combined with strong interaction and motion design skills, and a proven ability to set craft standards others follow
  • Strong front-end coding ability — comfortable generating or co-writing production-quality code, not just prototyping
  • Direct experience designing AI or agentic workflow products
  • Portfolio and/or case studies showcasing design craft and ability to solve user problems with quantified impact — required to be considered. Ideal portfolio work is self-authored: projects where you were the sole designer and either generated or co-wrote the code yourself
  • Fluency with vibe coding and AI-assisted design tools to prototype, validate, and ship
  • Experience prototyping and shipping in real codebases; strong comfort working in GitHub
  • Track record of driving design direction across multiple teams or surfaces without heavy oversight
  • Proven experience in fast-paced, high-growth environments
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, including influencing engineering and product leadership
  • Experience building or contributing to design systems a plus, but not the focus of this role
