she advised technology companies on various topics including growth
and go-to-market strategy.
Caimi joins Samsara as Andy McCall, Chief Revenue Officer,
announces his retirement after more than six years of service.
Caimi started at Samsara on May 30, 2023; McCall plans to stay on
in an advisory role through the end of the year to facilitate a
smooth transition.
“I am very excited to welcome Lara to our executive team as we
head into our next chapter of growth,” said Biswas. “Samsara’s
continued momentum reflects the large market opportunity ahead of

proven leadership helping ServiceNow scale fourfold makes her the
perfect fit to accelerate our business while providing a
best-in-class experience for our customers.”

Samsara throughout his years of leadership. Andy has built the
sales and customer outcomes team into a world-class organization
and has contributed tremendously to our trajectory. All of us at
Samsara wish Andy the best in his well-deserved retirement as we
welcome Lara to the company,” said Biswas.
“Samsara has seen rapid growth in just eight years since its
founding,” said Caimi. “A key driver is Samsara’s industry-leading
platform that is transforming how companies operate, though just as
important are the teams that bring that platform to life for
customers. I am excited to build upon Samsara’s success as we
continue to scale to meet demand, and deliver next-level value for
an ever-expanding customer base.”
