Senior Software Engineer (.NET), SDK Team

About Sentry

Bad software is everywhere, and we’re tired of it. Sentry is on a mission to help developers write better software faster, so we can get back to enjoying technology.

With more than $217 million in funding and 100,000+ organizations that believe we’re on to something, we’re building performance and error monitoring tools that help companies like Disney, Microsoft, and Atlassian spend less time fixing bugs and more time building products. If you like to selfishly build things that make your digital life better, come help us build the next generation of software monitoring tools.

About the role

As a Senior Software Engineer (.NET) in our SDK team you’ll join a cross-functional group responsible for the client facing operations of Sentry. This includes building and maintaining our .NET SDK and supporting the ecosystem surrounding it. You will help Sentry improve the quality of life of .NET developers everywhere by building best in class application monitoring solutions. You will work with product and technical leaders to drive Sentry’s .NET community growth.

In this role you will

• Work with the client infrastructure teams to improve and evolve Sentry’s .NET SDKs for backend, web, desktop, mobile and gaming
• Work together with maintainers of upstream packages
• This could be packages our SDK depends on and/or packages we want to instrument for our users (like frameworks such as .NET itself or OSS libraries)
• Collaborate with the other SDK teams on API and protocol design that scale (we ingest over a billion events every day)
• Improve Sentry’s .NET performance and error monitoring solutions for associated frameworks: ASP.NET, ASP.NET Core, WinForms, WPF, Blazor, MAUI and Unity
• Write unit and integration tests that ensure the correctness of your work, as well as strong documentation to help educate both peers and customers
• Assist Customer Operations to resolve live customer issues when bugs sneak into production caused by the SDKs

You’ll love this job if you

• Take pride in building features that don’t just work but are also delightful to use
• Want to build a product by developers for developers
• Want to join a modern software development team that iterates and ships code rapidly
• Get excited about contributing to open source full-time — our product is entirely Open Source
• Enjoy working with collaborative, thoughtful engineers who push themselves and others to do better
• Love to interact with your user base – whether it be on GitHub or in-person at conferences
• Love writing C# (we also do) and learning things in depth

Qualifications

• 5+ years as a Software Engineer and/or related role (e.g. app or backend developer, SDK engineer)
• Experience in developing with .NET Framework and .NET Core (Mono is a bonus)
• Experience in programming languages used in the .NET ecosystem like C# and F#
• Bonus points for experience with Java, C, C++ or low level languages
• Good written and spoken English communication skills
