About the job

About Sentry

Sentry is an application monitoring platform that helps developers fix errors and performance issues before users notice. Trusted by 200,000+ organizations, Sentry is building its AI-native future.

About the role

We are looking for an Engineering Manager to lead and grow our Machine Learning Engineering team. The team owns the full spectrum of ML at Sentry, from classical techniques like clustering, ranking, anomaly detection, and embeddings to LLM-based and agentic systems. You will partner with product, design, and engineering leaders to decide where ML belongs in our products.

In this role you will

  • Set technical direction across the team's full ML surface area, from classical models to LLM-based and agentic systems.
  • Define how the team evaluates and monitors ML systems in production, from offline metrics to online experimentation to model and agent observability.
  • Stay hands-on enough to review code and model designs, contribute to architecture discussions, and unblock engineers.
  • Define team roadmap and deliverables, scope work, allocate resources, and keep execution on track.
  • Partner with product managers, designers, and engineering leaders to identify high-impact ML opportunities.
  • Foster career growth for engineers and recruit exceptional ML talent.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of professional engineering experience, with significant time building and shipping machine learning systems in production.
  • 3+ years of engineering management experience, ideally leading ML, AI, or data-focused teams.
  • Familiarity with deploying and operating ML models at scale, including evaluation, monitoring, and iteration in production.
  • Strong judgment in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication.
  • A research background in machine learning, statistics, or a related field (MS, PhD, or equivalent) is a plus but not required.

Compensation & benefits

Base salary range: $220,000 to $450,000. Eligible for incentive compensation, equity grants, paid time off, and group health insurance coverage. See Sentry Benefits for details.
