Senior Software Engineer, Product Foundation

Details

Bad software is everywhere, and we’re tired of it. Sentry is on a mission to help developers write better software faster so we can get back to enjoying technology.

With more than $217 million in funding and 100,000+ organizations that believe we’re on to something, we're building performance and error monitoring tools that help companies like Disney, Microsoft, and Atlassian spend less time fixing bugs and more time building products.

Sentry embraces a hybrid work model, with Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays set as in-office anchor days to encourage meaningful collaboration. If you like to selfishly build things that make your digital life better, come help us build the next generation of software monitoring tools.

About the role

Engineering organizations rely on Sentry to triage and debug production issues quickly. This is only possible with a stable notification platform that effectively notifies the right people, at the right time, using the tools they use every day. The Product Foundation team owns fundamental building blocks to enable the SaaS business to function, including authentication, authorization, notification platform, and integrations. The integrations include in-house developed ones like GitHub, Slack, and Jira, as well as third-party integrations like Linear built on our integration platform. We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to lead this team.

Responsibilities

• Lead the design, development, and maintenance of integrations with other SaaS services using Django (Python) and React (TypeScript) in our open-source codebase, setting technical direction and driving best practices. To support the growing scope, it's important to build scalable solutions having developer efficiency in mind.
• Define and implement reusable API solutions to standardize functionality across the organization, such as shared filtering and query patterns, and create a strategic roadmap to drive adoption and consistency across all teams at Sentry.
• Propose innovative product features to enhance Sentry’s integration capabilities with other SaaS apps.
• Work closely with the Engineering Manager to help the team prioritize between parallel work streams.
• Lead engineering initiatives to create tools and processes that enable engineers to test and debug faster, improving overall productivity and operational excellence.
• Build tests and set up monitoring for your work to maintain a high engineering standard for Sentry.
• Foster growth and raise the team’s technical aptitude through code review and mentorship.

Requirements

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience.
• 2+ years of experience in leading software engineering teams to execute on projects in parallel.
• Bachelors Degree in Computer Science, or related field, and/or relevant experience.
• Strong experience with Django/Python (or similar frameworks and languages).
• Working experience with React/Typescript (or similar frameworks and languages) to be self-sufficient on simple changes.
