Senior Software Engineer, Product Foundations (Backend)

Sentry

About The Role

Product Foundation consists of two main pods: Alerts & Notification, and Ecosystem. The Alerts & Notifications pod owns the core alerting functionality in Sentry. The Ecosystem pod owns connectors to other SaaS tools to send these alerts. The team focuses on projects that will embed Sentry tightly with our users’ workflows, and provide actionable insights on issues in their code so they can fix them. We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join the team.

In this role you will:

  • Build and maintain features/integrations with other SaaS services using React (TypeScript) and Django (Python) in our open-source codebase.
  • Have opportunities to work on high-impact projects that touch the entire stack: understanding the event ingestion pipeline; delving into search and storage systems; and surfacing that data to our customers on our backend and frontend codebases (did we mention that almost all of them are open-source?).
  • Write tests for your code to maintain a high code quality and raise the engineering standard for Sentry.
  • Set up monitoring and alerting to ensure application health and uptime.
  • Review code and mentor less-experienced engineers.
  • Write user-facing documentation to support new features with help from our technical writing staff.

You’ll love this job if you:

  • Are a product-minded software engineer. You regard Product and Design as your peers, and you seek collaboration to create innovative workflows.
  • Want to delve deeper than the application layer to understand the systems and services powering the APIs that you are using.
  • Want autonomy on task prioritization. You understand the challenge of shipping new features while maintaining existing functionality, and you have found the balance between them in previous roles.
  • Operate with a high level of ownership over the outcomes of your work, and you expect the same from your team.
  • Are excited to roll up your sleeves to dive into another team’s codebase to unblock yourself, making good, maintainable changes and earning the recognition of your counterparts.
  • Relish the idea of making small improvements to a tool that magnifies into days of saved time across our customer base.
  • Want to be the change you seek in the world of developer tooling. You recognize that you are the target user for Sentry, and you want to have an influence on the things that make it into the product.

Qualifications:

  • 6+ years of experience building user-facing web applications and APIs.
  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, or related field, and/or relevant experience.
  • Strong experience with React/Typescript (or similar frameworks and languages).
  • Working experience with Django/Python (or similar frameworks and languages).

Salary and Benefits:

The base salary range that Sentry reasonably expects to pay for this position is $175,000 to $215,000. A successful candidate’s actual base salary will be determined by a variety of relevant factors including, without limitation, the candidate’s work location, education, work and other relevant experience, skills, and job-related knowledge. A successful candidate will be eligible to participate in Sentry’s employee benefit plans/programs applicable to the candidate’s position (including incentive compensation, equity grants, paid time off, and group health insurance coverage).
