Full Job Description
ABOUT SENTRY Software runs the world and the pace is faster than ever. Sentry helps developers fix errors and performance issues before users notice, so teams can spend less time firefighting and more time building. Trusted by 200,000+ organizations, Sentry is today’s application monitoring standard and our team is building its AI-native future. ABOUT THE ROLE The Events Analytics Platform (EAP) team is responsible for the infrastructure that powers all of Sentry's time-series data and searching capabilities across billions of events with sub-second latency. We started this initiative by building Snuba, the primary storage and query service for Sentry's event data powered by ClickHouse, and we are now focused on unlocking deeper visibility and reporting across the terabytes of event data our users generate.

You will do this by expanding the capabilities of our search infrastructure, building new capabilities on top of our state-of-the-art storage layer and increasing the performance and integrity of Sentry’s core data services.

If you want to solve the hard problems that come with scaling event data into the petabyte range, this could be the job for you. IN THIS ROLE YOU WILL: - Expand EAP's ability to deliver data at world-class speed and reliability. - Architect and automate services and systems to scale reliably under growing demand. - Make architectural trade-offs that balance product requirements with engineering constraints. - Maintain and grow the team's code quality initiatives by regularly reviewing code and contributing to design decisions. - Lead design and discussions around deliverables the team is working towards. - Improve the maintainability and developer experience of the codebases E
