• 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
• That context shapes everything about how we operate
• As a Senior Security Engineer on this team, you’ll work across application and platform security domains
• You’ll own and shape 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’ll partner closely with product and engineering teams to influence how features are designed and built from the start
• 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
• Own and mature Sentry’s security review program. From secure code review, to architecture review, and threat modeling. You will build processes, tooling, and culture which makes security a natural part of how we ship and operate
• Influence mature vulnerability management practices. Intake, triage, prioritization, remediation tracking, and management of our bug bounty and responsible disclosure program
• Champion secure-by-design principles. 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. Scanning, manual testing, coordinate penetration testing and vulnerability validation across Sentry’s application, SDKs and cloud-based platform
• Evaluate and respond to emerging threats relevant to application security Sentry. We build and operate a complex application and cloud environment, including the novel attack surface introduced by Sentry’s agentic product features and AI-assisted engineering practices
