About the role

  • 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.
  • As a Senior Platform Engineer on the Infrastructure team, you'll design, build, and maintain internal software systems that power our development workflows, focusing on abstracting away infrastructure complexity, enabling faster development cycles, embedding reliability and security into our platform, and making it easier for product teams to ship confidently.
  • Design and implement APIs, services, and developer-facing interfaces that enable self-service infrastructure capabilities.
  • Collaborate closely with engineering teams to understand their needs and deliver tailored solutions; create and maintain documentation and training materials; monitor, debug, and maintain the performance and availability of internal infrastructure.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience as a software engineer, with a focus on infrastructure, developer tools, or platform engineering
  • Strong proficiency with Python
  • Experience designing and building scalable systems and APIs
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and their SDKs/APIs
  • Hands-on experience with containerization and orchestration technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes)
  • Understanding of CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation best practices
  • Excellent written communication skills, especially when writing technical documentation
  • Understanding of distributed systems and infrastructure design principles
