Engineering Manager, Analytics Platform

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.

Sentry embraces a hybrid work model, with Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays set as in‑office anchor days to encourage meaningful collaboration. 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

Sentry provides developer‑first observability to over 4 million developers worldwide. The Events Analytics Platform (EAP) team is at the heart of that mission : it powers how all of Sentry’s event data such as errors, transactions, spans, profiles, replays, and metrics is stored, queried, and analyzed.

The EAP team makes it possible for developers to efficiently search and debug across massive volumes of data, providing the context needed to understand and fix issues quickly. This team is also a cornerstone of Sentry’s long‑term strategy to become a context assembly and telemetry platform that unifies different signals so developers can see the complete picture.

As an engineering manager on the EAP team, you will lead a group of engineers building and scaling one of Sentry’s most critical data platforms. You will be responsible for driving architectural evolution, ensuring system stability, and mentoring a talented team in San Francisco. This is a highly visible leadership role with direct ties to Sentry’s long‑term product and platform strategy.

In this role you will

• Grow and develop a team of engineers with high expectations for ownership and impact
• Set the technical and strategic direction for the team, balancing short‑term stability with long‑term architectural evolution
• Drive development of core EAP features to support complex analytical query, dynamic routing logic for different fidelity levels, data movement in cellularized architecture, storage and compute separation and more modern patterns for analytical storage
• Guide the unification of all event data into EAP and enable fast and complex cross‑event querying at scale
• Partner closely with cross‑functional teams including Product Engineering, Streaming, Production Engineering, Security, and Compliance
• Lead the team through incidents, postmortems, and scaling challenges while fostering operational excellence
• Build a healthy and collaborative team culture rooted in growth, accountability, and inclusion
