About the Role
The Security Team is responsible for securing all things Sentry: our customers, our code, and everything in between. As a Security Engineer on this team, you'll work across application and platform security domains. You'll contribute to 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.
Responsibilities
- Support and help mature Sentry's security review program, including secure code review, architecture review, and threat modeling.
- Build processes, tooling, and culture to make security a natural part of shipping and operations.
- Contribute to mature vulnerability management practices, including intake, triage, prioritization, and remediation tracking.
- Support Sentry's bug bounty and responsible disclosure program.
- Advocate for secure-by-design principles by partnering with engineering and product teams.
- 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 through scanning, manual testing, and supporting penetration testing.
- Support vulnerability validation across Sentry's application, SDKs, and cloud-based platform.
- Help evaluate and respond to emerging threats relevant to application security at Sentry.
- Address novel attack surfaces introduced by agentic product features and AI-assisted engineering practices.
Requirements
- 2+ years of industry experience designing, building, or securing complex applications and cloud systems.
- Hands-on experience with several of the following: security reviews, SDLC practices, secure CI/CD, architecture reviews, threat modeling, vulnerability management, bug bounty and responsible disclosure programs.
- Experienced and comfortable programming in at least one language, and able to read and reason about code in Python, Typescript, Go, or Rust.
- Familiarity with using distributed cloud technology (AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, etc.) and an understanding of how those technologies are secured (cloud networking, IAM, etc.).
- A collaborative approach to problem solving paired with strong written and verbal communication.
- Excited about new challenges, including interesting vulnerabilities, exploits, novel architectures, unfamiliar cloud primitives, or new bug classes.
- Enjoy working in a developer-forward culture where colleagues are builders who care deeply about code quality and customer satisfaction.
- Prefer to automate and build scalable, systematic solutions to security problems.
- Thrive with ownership and prefer to drive work end-to-end, energized by autonomy and mentorship on a small, high-trust team.
