Old Toronto, Canada Sentry Full time

About Sentry

Sentry is a leading provider of performance and error monitoring tools, dedicated to helping developers build better software faster. With over $217 million in funding and 100,000+ organizations relying on our solutions, we're committed to making technology more enjoyable for everyone.

Our mission is to empower developers with the insights they need to write high-quality code and deliver exceptional user experiences. To achieve this, we're building a scalable architecture that can handle millions of events per second.

Your Role

We're seeking an experienced Software Architect to join our Platform Team. As a key member of our team, you'll be responsible for designing and implementing the architecture for our ingestion pipeline and storage systems. This involves planning and executing the transition from our legacy monolith to a more flexible service-oriented architecture.

If you have a passion for distributed systems and enjoy tackling complex technical challenges, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.

Key Responsibilities

  • Improve the design of our ingestion pipeline and storage systems to ensure efficient development and deployment for new projects.
  • Analyze retrospectives to identify areas for improvement and implement changes to prevent outages in the future.
  • Collaborate with the team to break down our legacy Django monolith into smaller, dedicated services.

You'll Thrive in This Role If:

  • You understand how to make data-driven decisions to enable developers to ship fast and stable software on a shared platform.
  • You have experience with distributed systems and are looking to scale up your skills. Our system processes hundreds of thousands of events per second, requiring a deep understanding of scalability.
  • You possess a keen eye for infrastructure and business logic concerns, ensuring that our systems remain lean and efficient.
  • You're eager to improve processes and challenge the status quo. This role offers a unique opportunity to address technical debt and legacy codebase issues.

Requirements and Qualifications

  • 8+ years of relevant software engineering experience.
  • A proven track record of successfully scaling a platform, particularly in transitioning from a legacy monolith to a service-oriented architecture.
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts clearly.
  • Strong knowledge of replicated and/or distributed systems.
  • Experience with Python or similar dynamic programming languages.
  • Experience with Rust, Go, or similar compiled programming languages.

Compensation and Benefits

The estimated salary range for this position is $174,000 to $220,000, depending on factors such as location, education, and experience. Successful candidates will be eligible for competitive benefits, including incentive compensation, equity grants, paid time off, and group health insurance coverage.

Diversity and Inclusion at Sentry

Sentry is committed to providing equal employment opportunities to all employees and candidates, regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, veteran status, or other protected characteristics. We strive to create a diverse and inclusive work environment where every teammate can thrive.
