Job Requirements / Description
About the role
Sentry.io provides a suite of services to diagnose health problems in their customer's applications. These tools are mission-critical to companies who want to respond effectively in fast-paced markets and always expanding.
We make the development and deployment of these tools a safe and enjoyable experience, by building a scalable platform for engineers to build on top. From ingestion, to storage to reasoning about how the pieces fit together.
As a member of the Platform Team, you will be responsible for building the right architecture for Sentry. We’re converting from a legacy monolith to a more flexible service-oriented world. You will be planning and implementing the switch from our organically grown ingestion pipeline to one that is ready for a much larger Sentry.
If the idea of making a pipeline scale to millions of events a second brings a smile to your face, this could be the job for you.
In this role you will
Improve the design of our ingestion pipeline and storage systems, ensuring that every engineer is able to build on top of it efficiently for new projects
Learn from our retrospectives to improve our systems to help developers avoid outages in the future
Help us break up a legacy Django monolith into smaller, dedicated services
You’ll love this job if you
Understand how to make developers make the right decisions to ship fast but stable on a shared platform
Have experience with distributed systems, but are looking for exposure to higher scale. We process hundreds of thousands of events/second — scaling on the storage team isn’t just “put a cache in front of it”
Have a vigilant eye for the mixing of infrastructure and business logic concerns. We try to push business logic out of our team’s code and into the product
Want opportunities to improve processes and the status quo. This team is created out of an operational need addressing some long accumulated tech debt and legacy code base
Qualifications
8+ years of relevant software engineering experience
Proven track record of successfully scaling a platform, particularly in transitioning from a legacy monolith to a more adaptable service-oriented architecture
Excellent written and oral communication skills and ability to articulate technical concepts clearly and succinctly
Strong knowledge of replicated and/or distributed systems
You have experience with some or all of the following systems we leverage:
Disk-driven Storage Systems: PostgreSQL, ClickHouse
Memory-driven Storage Systems: Memcached, Redis
Streaming Platforms: Kafka, RabbitMQ
Experience with Python or a similar dynamic programming language
Experience with Rust, Go or a similar compiled programming language
The base salary range that Sentry reasonably expects to pay for this position is $174,000 to $220,000. A successful candidate’s actual base salary amount 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). See Sentry Benefits for more details about the Company’s benefit plans/programs.
