To empower developer teams to build their best possible software, more quickly and easily.
Role
Who you are
- Take pride in building features that don't just work, but are also delightful to use
- Are intrigued by the chance to build a product by developers, for developers
- Enjoy contributing to open source full-time — our product is entirely Open Source
- Want to join a modern software development team that iterates and ships code rapidly
- Love to work with collaborative, thoughtful engineers who push themselves and others to do better
- 5+ years as a Software Engineer and/or related role (e.g. mobile app developer, SDK engineer)
- Experience in developing for mobile platforms (iOS and/or Android)
- Experience in programming languages used on mobile platforms
- Bonus points for experience with Flutter, C/C++, React Native, or maintaining open source libraries
- Good written and spoken English communication skills
What the job involves
- As a Senior Mobile SDK Engineer on our client infrastructure team (SDK), you'll join a cross-functional group of engineers who are responsible for the client-facing operation of Sentry
- This includes building and maintaining our mobile SDKs (iOS, Android, React Native and Flutter) that are used to send events to the Sentry backend
- You will primarily own our iOS SDK, as well as the Mobile platform end-to-end
- This means you will also be involved in the design and evolution of the APIs and product experiences powering our Mobile offerings
- Work with product engineering and client infrastructure teams to improve and evolve Sentry's Mobile products - like building the future of performance monitoring, and working on new technologies like Session Replay
- Use a variety of programming languages, systems, and technologies to own and solve problems related to mobile SDKs: Swift/Objective-C, JavaScript/TypeScript, Kotlin/Java and Dart
- Collaborate with the other SDK teams on API and protocol design that scale (we ingest over a billion events every day)
- Engage with teams and stakeholders across the company to drive strategic initiatives for the mobile team
- Write unit and integration tests that ensure the correctness of your work, as well as strong documentation to help educate both peers and customers
- Assist Customer Operations to resolve live customer issues when bugs sneak into production caused by the SDKs
Our take
Defective software leads to dissatisfied users, disruptions and potential financial losses for companies. Sentry has created application monitoring and error tracking software to help developers fix errors faster, easier and more cost effectively.
More than 1 million developers and 70,000 organizations worldwide, including the likes of Microsoft, Disney, Atlassian, Cloudflare and Slack have used Sentry to monitor their code health. The company is well positioned for significant growth. There is an emerging need for solutions that address holistic application health. As more companies focus on digital to engage with their customers, the reliability of their applications is essential.
The global bug-tracking software market is expected to reach over $600 million by 2026 with an annual growth rate of almost 10%. Further, the company has also opened another office in Denver in early 2023, expanding its regional presence, and has announced additional functionality in its platform, all of which bodes well for Sentry's future.
