Senior Software Engineer, Infrastructure

Who you are

You have 5+ years of experience in software engineering, particularly in building and maintaining infrastructure systems that support development workflows. Your expertise in Java and Python allows you to design scalable and reliable systems that abstract away infrastructure complexity, enabling faster development cycles. You understand the importance of embedding reliability and security into platforms, and you have a strong grasp of cloud technologies, particularly AWS. Your experience with containerization tools like Docker and orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes has equipped you to handle complex deployment pipelines effectively.

You thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy working closely with product teams to ensure that the tools you build meet their needs. Your problem-solving skills are top-notch, and you have a knack for simplifying complex processes, making it easier for teams to ship their products confidently. You are also committed to making software accessible and believe in the mission of empowering developers to create better software.

Desirable

Experience with CI/CD practices is a plus, as is familiarity with monitoring tools that help track application performance. If you have worked in a hybrid work model before, you will find it easy to adapt to Sentry's collaborative culture. A background in performance monitoring tools or error tracking systems will also be beneficial in this role.

What you'll do

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Infrastructure team at Sentry, you will be responsible for designing, building, and maintaining the internal software systems that power our development workflows. Your primary focus will be on creating systems that abstract infrastructure complexity, allowing product teams to develop and deploy their applications more efficiently. You will work on enhancing our CI environment and ensuring that our deployment pipelines are transparent and informative.

You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand their needs and translate them into technical solutions. This involves not only coding but also participating in design discussions and code reviews to ensure best practices are followed. You will be expected to contribute to the architectural decisions that shape our infrastructure, ensuring that it is scalable and future-proof.

Your role will also involve monitoring the performance of the systems you build, identifying areas for improvement, and implementing changes that enhance reliability and security. You will have the opportunity to mentor junior engineers, sharing your knowledge and helping them grow in their careers. Your contributions will directly impact the efficiency of our development processes and the quality of the software we deliver.
