Role
Who you are
- Sentry is seeking a highly technical, developer-focused Senior Product Designer to join our team in Toronto
- This role is highly technical and requires a deep understanding of common developer workflows
- Developers turned designers, take note: if you've got domain experience and can talk frontend and backend, from application down to the function, this may be the role for you
- You love making the lives of engineers and fellow designers easier
- You enjoy working cross-functionally and building out features alongside developers and product teams
- You respect the value of design constraints but enjoy pushing their limits
- You're a strong advocate for UX, UI and visual design
- You're passionate about open source and wouldn't mind more green boxes on your contribution graph
- 5+ years of product design experience, or a portfolio that demonstrates equivalent expertise**(a link to a portfolio or relevant work is required)**
- Frontend experience with HTML/CSS and an understanding of web design principles
- Strong visual design skills and attention to detail
- Experience conducting user interviews and interpreting findings
- Expert with Figma or other modern design tools
- Ability to simplify complex workflows into intuitive experiences
- Bonus: Familiarity with JavaScript frameworks like React or templating engines
- Bonus: Active GitHub profile and/or open-source contributions
- Bonus: Experience with SVG, especially for data visualization
- Bonus: Experience using version control (e.g., Git)
- You’ve designed and built tools as part of a small team
- You understand developer workflows—and what frustrates them
- You struggle to decide whether you're more of an engineer or a designer on LinkedIn
What the job involves
- Your designs will help developers ship higher quality and more performant apps with confidence
- You’ll collaborate closely with a senior team of product managers, engineers, and designers to create product experiences that set us apart
- We’re a small but mighty team with experience at Gusto, Square, GitHub, and more. We’re serious about solving tough problems, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously
- Have a huge impact by designing core improvements to the largest and most popular parts of Sentry
- Collaborate closely with a tight-knit group of designers that meet weekly to share work, thoughts, opinions and general rantings
- Contribute to our component library and design documentation
- Help developers across the globe be more efficient by maximizing signal and limiting noise
- Be instrumental in creating a consistent look and feel throughout our products
- Help define systems to enable our design and frontend teams to be more efficient and collaborative
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.
