In this role, you will
- Own and mature Sentry's security review program. From secure code review, to architecture review, and threat modeling. You will build processes, tooling, and culture which makes security a natural part of how we ship and operate.
- Influence mature vulnerability management practices. Intake, triage, prioritization, remediation tracking, and management of our bug bounty and responsible disclosure program.
- Champion secure-by-design principles. Partner with engineering and product teams to 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. Scanning, manual testing, coordinate penetration testing and vulnerability validation across Sentry's application, SDKs and cloud-based platform.
- Evaluate and respond to emerging threats relevant to application security Sentry. We build and operate a complex application and cloud environment, including the novel attack surface introduced by Sentry's agentic product features and AI-assisted engineering practices.
You’ll thrive in this role if you
- Enjoy operating cross-functionally, building relationships, and influencing with technical expertise, and shaping how security gets done across a fast-moving engineering organization.
- Get excited when something new lands on your desk, be it an interesting vulnerability, a sweet exploit, a novel agentic architecture, an unfamiliar cloud primitive, or a bug class you haven't seen before.
- Love working in an developer-forward culture where your colleagues are builders who care deeply about code quality and customer satisfaction.
- Reach for automation first, you'd rather build a scalable, systematic solution to a security problem than solve it manually a hundred times.
- Thrive with real ownership, you prefer to build and drive work end-to-end, you're energized by the autonomy that comes with being on a small, high-trust team.
