Senior Software Engineer (Control Plane)

About this role

• The Centralized Tenancy and Routing Layer (CTRL) team builds and operates the foundational infrastructure that defines customer boundaries and coordinates lifecycle operations across Sentry’s distributed architecture. These systems power how customers are managed and how services communicate and replicate data safely across our ecosystem
• As a Senior Software Engineer on the CTRL team, you’ll design and operate the core platform primitives that make this architecture possible. Your work will focus on distributed coordination, cross-cell routing, replication infrastructure, and lifecycle orchestration for the customer environment
• This role sits at the heart of Sentry’s platform architecture—building the control systems that ensure the platform operates safely and correctly at global scale. The work requires strong engineering judgment and deep distributed systems thinking. You’ll design systems where correctness and reliability are critical, and build abstractions that many teams depend on but rarely see directly
• Ultimately, you’ll help build the infrastructure that enables Sentry’s SaaS platform to scale safely across a distributed, multi-cell architecture
• Build and enhance the control plane systems that manage customer identity, placement, and lifecycle across a multi-cell architecture
• Improve the reliability, scalability, and observability of mission-critical control plane services
• Partner with engineering teams to provide safe infrastructure primitives and standards for cell-compatible systems
• Help operate critical infrastructure through incident response and continuous improvement
