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.

About the Role

The Issue Workflow team is responsible for Sentry's core debugging experience, which includes alerts, issue search, and issue details. These are the most visited pages on our product and they are critical to the daily workflow for thousands of software engineers across the world. You will shape intuitive, data-intensive user interfaces to create a product experience that can make complex debugging feel effortless.

We are looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to join the team.

In this Role You Will

• Work alongside EM, PM and Product Designer to ideate, execute, validate and iterate quickly on new features, and join customer calls to get first-hand feedback on your work.
• Build and maintain features 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?).
• Build tests and set up monitoring for your work to maintain a high engineering standard for Sentry.
• Raise the team’s technical aptitude through code review and mentorship.
• Collaborate with technical writing staff to create user-focused documentation that supports new product features.

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.
• 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 professional software engineering experience.
• Bachelors 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).
• Bonus: Prior experience working on innovative product-focused teams/companies.

Compensation & Benefits

The base salary range for this position is $180,000 to $205,000. Actual base salary will be determined by factors such as work location, education, experience, skills, and knowledge. You will be eligible for Sentry’s employee benefit plans, including incentive compensation, equity grants, paid time off, and group health insurance.
