Extend our product: own the functionality end-to-end, react on feedback and come up with proposals for further product development.
Own the GitHub integration end to end: PR status checks, comments, approvals and webhooks, including races, duplicates and missing-baseline edge cases
Ship frontend features such as treemaps, build comparisons and diff viewers that stay fast on huge datasets
Run what you build: deploys across regions, metrics, logging and on-call, and be the person who debugs the weird customer build
YOU’LL LOVE THIS JOB IF YOU
Want your work to show up in the pull requests our customers open every day, not buried in a dashboard nobody checks
Like problems with real weight: a multi-GB IPA, tens of thousands of screenshots in a single build, a binary format with sparse documentation
Would rather own a feature from upload to UI than hand off half of it (end-to-end ownership)
Enjoy building for developers, who will tell you exactly what’s wrong and why
Want to help two products that started at a startup grow into core parts of Sentry
QUALIFICATIONS
3+ years building production web services, with strong Python (Django preferred) and a habit of typed, tested code
Working proficiency in React and TypeScript, enough to ship a full feature without handing off the frontend
Experience with async task systems and event pipelines (Kafka, task queues, worker pools), including idempotency, locking, retries and their failure modes
Experience with Postgres schema design and migrations that work under rolling deploys, plus pragmatic rollout habits like feature flags and revertable changes
A track record of performance work: profiling, parallelism, memory reduction and large-file streaming through object storage
Bonus points for
Hands-on experience with mobile build artifacts and tooling (LIEF, bundletool, apksigner, link maps, DWARF, code signing)
Image processing or pixel-diff tooling
GitHub Apps or the Checks API
Data visualization, especially treemaps
Prior work on developer tools, CI or observability products
