About Sentry
In a world inundated with subpar software, Sentry stands out with a mission to empower developers to create exceptional software swiftly, enabling everyone to revel in the benefits of technology.
With an impressive $217 million in funding and over 100,000 organizations, including industry giants like Disney, Microsoft, and Atlassian, we are developing advanced performance and error monitoring tools. These tools allow companies to focus more on innovation rather than bug fixes.
At Sentry, we adopt a hybrid work model across our global hubs, designating Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays as in-office collaboration days to foster meaningful interactions. If you are passionate about building tools that enhance the digital experience, we invite you to join us in revolutionizing software monitoring.
About The Role
As a vital member of our Security Team, you will play a crucial role in safeguarding all aspects of Sentry: our customers, our code, and everything in between. We are a nimble yet expanding group that enjoys a broad scope of responsibilities, a high level of trust, and the freedom to creatively tackle complex security challenges. Our vibrant developer culture fuels our work, as we craft a product that millions of developers cherish and depend upon.
In your role as a Senior Security Engineer, you will navigate both application and platform security domains. You will be instrumental in establishing and refining security practices as we scale, including security reviews, threat modeling, vulnerability management, and integrating secure coding methodologies within an engineering culture committed to excellence. Collaborating closely with product and engineering teams, you will influence the design and development of features from inception. You will act as a technical advocate, ensuring that security remains a priority. As Sentry enhances its product capabilities and development practices, you will encounter an exciting array of new security challenges.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead and enhance Sentry's security review program, encompassing secure code reviews, architectural assessments, and threat modeling. You will create processes, tools, and a culture that embeds security into our development and operational practices.
- Drive the evolution of our vulnerability management practices, including intake, triage, prioritization, remediation tracking, and overseeing our bug bounty and responsible disclosure initiatives.
- Advocate for secure-by-design principles by partnering with engineering and product teams to incorporate security considerations early in the development lifecycle and integrate security tools into the developer and CI/CD workflows.
