Job Summary
Software runs the world and the pace is faster than ever. Sentry helps developers fix errors and performance issues before users notice so teams can spend less time firefighting and more time building.
Trusted by 200000 organizations Sentry is todays application monitoring standard and our team is building its AI-native future.
Ever wondered what its actually like to intern at a company millions of developers rely on
Software Engineering Interns at Sentry write real code on real projects that ship to production. No fetch-the-coffee. Just you a team that actually trusts you and a codebase used by millions of developers every day including the ones building the AI tools everyones talking about.
Youll land on either an SDK team or Ingest and either way youre in the critical path not on the sidelines. SDKs are where past interns have shipped async support for our Python SDK and a faster AWS Lambda extension real code running inside frameworks developers use every day. Ingest is the backbone: youll get hands-on with the pipelines (including our open-source Relay and Symbolicator) that process millions of events every minute.
Dont just take our word for it hear it from the people who lived it. Our intern blog is full of stories from past Sentaurs about the features they shipped and the teams they joined and more than a few of them liked it enough to come back as full-time new grads.
