Senior Software Engineer, Session Replay

Bad software is everywhere, and we’re tired of it. Sentry is on a mission to help developers write better software faster so we can get back to enjoying technology.

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.

Sentry embraces a hybrid work model, with Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays set as in-office anchor days to encourage meaningful collaboration. If you like to selfishly build things that make your digital life better, come help us build the next generation of software monitoring tools.

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Session Replay team, you’ll join a cross-functional team of engineers responsible for the functionality that lets Web and Mobile developers rewind and replay their users journey leading up to a bug. In this high-impact role, you’ll be building new capabilities that help developers understand the context in which their applications errors. Replays are connected to other context collected by Sentry, like errors, traces, user feedback, and feature flags to give developers all of the tools they need to debug a problem in one place.

• Work with product management and the larger engineering organization to define, implement and ship new features

• Maintain and expand functionality on backend services used by millions of developers

• Are a product-minded software engineer. You regard Product and Design as your peers, and you seek collaboration to create innovative workflows

• Relish the idea of making small improvements to a tool that magnifies into days of saved time across our customer base

• Take pride in building features that don't just work, but are also delightful to use

• Enjoy working with an open-source community that showcases your skills

• 8+ years professional engineering experience with a strong focus on backend and scalable systems

• Proficiency working with our tech stack (Python, Django, Kafka, ClickHouse, Postgres)

• Experience in rapidly iterating on proof-of-concept implementations to bring new product ideas to life
