Technical Support Engineer (4PM-12AM PST)

. We’re looking for an experienced engineer to help us redefine the standard of technical support by combining deep human expertise with autonomous agentic systems.

You will treat support volume as a data signal to build automated resolution paths, ensuring our human engineers only touch the most complex, high-impact architectural puzzles. Sentry Support Engineers aren't just clearing queues; they are

. You will engage with our users across GitHub, Discord, and our internal systems, while acting as the Technical Lead for our Agentic Ops. You ensure that when a developer asks a complex question, our systems have the right context and a seamless "Human-in-the-Loop" path to you when deep, nuanced expertise is required.

•

Perform root-cause analysis on complex issues and distributed tracing gaps across polyglot environments. •

Act as a strategic consultant for senior engineers at our largest enterprise customers, solving high-stakes architectural challenges that push the boundaries of observability. •

Go deep into the source code of Sentry’s SDKs to help developers instrument complex frameworks and custom environments. •

Serve as the bridge between the world's best developers and our product teams, using data from your systems to prioritize high-impact platform fixes.

•

Engineer the logic that powers our support agents, moving beyond probabilistic guesses to high-fidelity, autonomous resolutions. •

Build the right context into our systems so they can resolve issues consistently and indefinitely. •

Use MCP (Model Context Protocol) and Sentry’s internal APIs to build "skills" for our agents, allowing them to perform complex lookups or state-checks autonomously. •

We’ve already proven AI can handle autonomous production fixes with

. You will apply that same philosophy to the support lifecycle—moving us from a "Help Desk" to an "Autonomous Resolution Engine."

•

you enjoy automating repetitive work and take pride in building systems that save time and effort. •

You enjoy jumping from a React frontend issue to a Python backend trace to a CI/CD pipeline failure in a single afternoon •

You prefer looking at data trends over anecdotal evidence to decide where to build automation next. •

You want to guide the industry on how elite engineers and AI co-exist in a high-density technical ecosystem. • Believe great documentation is as valuable as great code. • Are excited about using AI to improve customer experiences; not replace human expertise.

Mastery of Python, JavaScript, Java, or Ruby. You are comfortable reading SDK source code and identifying bugs in production-level repositories. •

Deep understanding of distributed systems, microservices, APIs, and the "path of a pixel" from frontend to database. •

Practical familiarity with LLM orchestration (RAG, context windows, system prompts) and a critical eye for where AI succeeds versus where it requires human intervention. •

The ability to explain complex architectural concepts to a human and write precise "system instructions" for an AI.

An active presence on GitHub or experience maintaining open-source libraries. •

You’ve spent time in the trenches as a full-time dev and know exactly what keeps our customers up at night.
