About Sentry
Sentry is an application monitoring platform trusted by 200,000+ organizations, helping developers fix errors and performance issues before users notice. The team is building its AI-native future.
About the role
As a Senior Software Engineer on Sentry's AI/ML team, you will build evaluation infrastructure that measures the accuracy, reliability, and real-world performance of AI systems. You will design datasets, benchmarks, and test harnesses to turn ambiguous AI behavior into measurable signals.
In this role you will
- Design and build robust evaluation frameworks to measure accuracy, reliability, regressions, and edge cases in AI systems
- Create and curate high-quality datasets, golden test cases, and benchmarks grounded in real production data
- Build automated test harnesses and metrics pipelines to continuously evaluate models, prompts, and agentic workflows
- Partner closely with applied AI engineers and product leaders to define what “good” looks like and translate it into measurable criteria
- Own the evaluation lifecycle for major AI initiatives, from early experimentation through production monitoring
Qualifications
- Minimum 5+ years of professional experience with a Bachelor’s degree in computer science, machine learning, or a related field
- Experience building testing, evaluation, or data infrastructure for complex systems (AI/ML experience strongly preferred)
- Comfort writing production-quality code (we use Python and TypeScript)
- Experience working with structured and unstructured datasets, labeling workflows, or data quality pipelines
- Familiarity with modern ML systems and evaluation techniques (e.g., offline metrics, online evaluation, regression testing for models or prompts)
- Bonus: experience evaluating LLMs, agentic systems, or AI-assisted developer tools
