## 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

Ever wondered what it's actually like to build a career at a company millions of developers rely on? Software Engineers at Sentry write real code on real projects that ship to production. No busywork, no "prove yourself first" purgatory. Just you, a team that actually trusts you, and a codebase used by millions of developers every day, including the ones building the AI tools everyone's talking about. You'll land on either an [SDK](https://docs.sentry.io/?original_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fsentry.io%2Fcareers%2F%3Fteam%3DEngineering%2B) team or Ingest — and either way, you're in the critical path, not on the sidelines. SDKs are where past interns have shipped [async support for our Python SDK](https://blog.sentry.io/meet-sentrys-2025-summer-interns/#simon-1-16) and a faster [AWS Lambda extension](https://blog.sentry.io/meet-sentrys-2025-summer-interns/#martin-1-17) — real code running inside frameworks developers use every day. Ingest is the backbone: you'll get hands-on with the pipelines (including our open-source [Relay](https://github.com/getsentry/relay) and [Symbolicator](https://github.com/getsentry/symbolicator)) that process millions of events every minute. New grad hires are rad hires. Our onboarding is built to set you up for long-term success from day one — comprehensive training, dedicated mentorship, social events, and a built-in community of peers who started right alongside you. (There are also snacks. The good kind.) Many of our new grads started out as interns here first — [read the stories](https://blog.sentry.io/life-at-sentry/) from Sentaurs who liked it enough to come back full-time.

In this role you will

- Be matched with one of our [SDKs](https://sentry.io/platforms/), Product or Ingest teams, based on your interests and experience
- Design, develop, and ship features and systems that drive real value to customers
- Own projects end-to-end, from design through production
- Receive ongoing feedback, coaching, and mentorship from your manager and teammates

You'll love this job if you

- Want to be treated like an engineer from day one
- Care about how software actually works
- Are excited about where AI is taking software development and want to build in the middle of it
- Want mentorship that's real, not scheduled
- Like shipping things and seeing them used at scale

## Qualifications

- Recently completed or completing an undergraduate or graduate program in Computer Science or a related field
- At least one previous internship or equivalent hands-on experience
- Solid grasp of algorithms and data structures fundamentals
- Comfortable using GitHub: branching, pull requests, code review, the works
- Proficient in Python, JavaScript, or a similar dynamic language, picked up through internships, personal projects, or coursework
- Can pick up a new language or framework quickly and run with it
- Experience collaborating on an engineering project with a team (class, open source, work, it counts)
- Available to start [in 2027 and able to relocate to Vienna, Austria (we'll help get you there and cover housing)
- Please note the following:
- Visa sponsorship is considered on a case-by-case basis
- This is a full-time position

We are obliged by law to quote the minimum wage of EUR 43.456,-- gross per year for this position, in accordance with the respective collective agreement (IT-KV). The base salary (or hourly wage range, if applicable) that Sentry reasonably expects to pay for this position is EUR €80,000.00. A successful candidate will be eligible to participate in Sentry’s employee benefit and perks programs applicable to the candidate’s position (including medical, dental and vision insurance coverage as well as temporary relocation support). See[Sentry Benefits](https://sentry.io/careers/) for more details about the Company’s benefit

- **Unified Observability**: Continuing to break down silos between errors, performance, logs, and replays into a single, trace-connected experience.
- **Platform Expansion**: Growing beyond error tracking into a full-stack observability and developer productivity platform, including code coverage (via Codecov acquisition) and AI-assisted development.
- **Enterprise Scale**: Building out capabilities for large organizations (enterprise product marketing, solutions engineering, security compliance) while maintaining a strong developer experience.
