What the job involves
- As the Product Marketing Manager for Sentry, you will own the end-to-end go-to-market strategy to drive product awareness, adoption, and expansion

- You will also work closely with strategic integration and ecosystem partners to enhance product offerings and expand market reach
- Your role extends beyond just promoting product features; by deeply understanding the user and market, you'll influence product development and shape our go-to-market strategy
- Craft and execute a creative product marketing strategy and shape the go-to-market motion for both
- From ecosystem partnerships to sales enablement, you’ll especially nerd out on our measurement-focused product areas and drive acquisition, adoption and activation strategies

- Creatively drive the funnel. Thoughtfully identify gaps in content and ways to keep demand metrics growing -- from awareness to expansion for the core product
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.
