About Sentry

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 $127 million in funding and 80,000 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. 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

The Site Reliability Engineering team is responsible for the deployment, configuration, maintenance and monitoring of Sentry's hosted platform. We do this by leveraging automation tools to automatically spin up and scale services to meet the traffic demands of 1M+ developers. Sentry receives over a billion events a day, and process terabytes of data to return complex aggregations with sub-second latency

As the Senior Engineering Manager, you’ll be tasked with leading, growing, and guiding the team with expanding, monitoring, and improving our SaaS product. You'll work closely with your team, and collaborate with other Engineering functions across Sentry to improve reliability and scalability, deliver improvements to our stack, and guide new initiatives in a sustainable direction.

  • Take pride in developing features that don't "just work", but are delightful to use.
  • Desire to join a modern software team that iterates and ships code rapidly.
  • Have a passion for Open Source.
