Description For Senior Software Engineer, Product Foundation

Sentry, a leading software monitoring company with over $217 million in funding, is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to lead their Product Foundation team. This role is crucial in developing and maintaining fundamental building blocks that enable Sentry's SaaS business to function effectively.

The position offers a competitive salary range of $206,000 to $231,000 CAD and is based in Toronto, Canada, with a hybrid work model (Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays as in-office days). The role combines technical leadership with hands-on development, focusing on building and maintaining integrations with services like GitHub, Slack, and Jira using Django (Python) and React (TypeScript).

As a senior engineer, you'll be responsible for setting technical direction, implementing scalable solutions, and driving best practices within an open-source codebase.

The ideal candidate should have 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including 2+ years leading engineering teams. You should be product-minded, with a strong sense of ownership and excellent organizational skills. The role offers the opportunity to shape the future of developer tooling while working with a team that serves over 100,000 organizations worldwide.

Working at Sentry means joining a company that's revolutionizing how developers monitor and fix software issues. The company culture emphasizes meaningful collaboration, with a hybrid work model that balances remote flexibility with in-person teamwork. You'll be part of a mission to help developers write better software faster, working alongside teams that serve major tech companies while maintaining an open-source ethos.

If you're passionate about creating exceptional developer experiences, have a strong technical background, and want to influence the future of software monitoring tools, this role offers the perfect opportunity to make a significant impact while working with cutting-edge technologies in a collaborative environment.
