About the role
The Profiling team creates tools that help developers improve the performance of their code. We measure how long code takes to execute in production, revealing bottlenecks and hot spots that could be optimized to reduce infrastructure costs and deliver a high quality experience for end users. Our goal is to build low overhead sampling profiler solutions to cover the many different platforms supported by Sentry, and to deliver a great user experience that is connected to the rest of the Sentry product ecosystem.
In this role you will
Build and maintain the Profiling product and adjacent product areas using Python, Django, React, TypeScript and Rust.
Drive end-to-end execution: collecting profiling data using SDK integrations, ingesting, storing, and querying the data efficiently, and building end user workflows to visualize the data and connect it to other Sentry product experiences.
Work closely with Product Management, Design and Engineering Leadership to define, implement and ship new features.
Raise technical expertise within the organization through collaboration, mentorship, pairing and code reviews.
You’ll love this job if you
Are a product-minded software engineer. You regard Product and Design as your peers, and you seek collaboration to create innovative workflows.
Are highly detail oriented but know how to make pragmatic tradeoffs to deliver impact quickly.
Are excited to leverage your diverse skillset and dive into another team’s codebase to unblock yourself, making good, maintainable changes and earning the trust and recognition of your peers.
Love to collaborate with peers, driving for alignment and leading technical initiatives that span multiple teams.
Qualifications
5+ years of experience as a Software Engineer or similar role, preferably with experience using Python & Django, JavaScript/TypeScript & React, or similar frameworks.
Experience using profiling and performance monitoring tools to optimize software (must-have), and preferably have experience building such tools.
Excellent written and oral communication skills and an ability to articulate technical concepts clearly and succinctly.
Experience owning the end-to-end delivery and long-term support of large product features.
Familiarity with architectural patterns for building scalable, fault-tolerant distributed systems.
Familiarity with C, C++, Rust, Go, or other systems programming languages is a plus.
