The Security

Team is responsible for securing all things Sentry: our customers, our code, and everything in between. We are a small but growing team with broad scope, high trust, and the autonomy to tackle hard security problems with creativity and an engineering mindset. We work at a company with a strong developer culture, building a product that millions of developers genuinely love and rely on.

As a Security Engineer on this team, you'll work across application and platform security domains. You'll contribute to the practices that keep Sentry secure as we grow: security reviews, threat modeling, vulnerability management, and embedding secure coding practices into an engineering organization that cares about doing things right. You will work as a technical collaborator who helps make the secure path the obvious one.

As Sentry expands our agentic product capabilities and development practices, you'll also find yourself at the frontier of a new set of security challenges. Support and help mature Sentry's security review program. You'll help build the processes, tooling, and culture which make security a natural part of how we ship and operate.

Partner with engineering and product teams to embed security early in the development lifecycle and integrate security tooling into developer and CI/CD workflows. Validate and reproduce application and infrastructure security findings.
