Engineering Manager, Developer Infrastructure

About the role

Sentry's Developer Infrastructure team is one of the company's most critical force multipliers. Every engineer at Sentry depends on the tooling we build, including CI/CD systems, development environments, and golden paths for software development, to ship high-quality software quickly and safely. As Sentry moves into a world where developers work alongside multiple coding agents in parallel, Dev Infra has a central role in shaping how that new development lifecycle works.

Responsibilities

• Lead a team of engineers building the platform that accelerates every engineer at Sentry, making them more effective at shipping high-quality software.
• Drive the evolution of Sentry's Dev Infra platform across reproducible cloud environments, CI/CD, development-lifecycle context, and the background agent platform.
• Own the team's technical direction and architecture, contributing to key technical decisions on remote dev environments, selective testing, golden paths, and agent orchestration.
• Nurture and grow engineers at different levels, providing support through coaching, mentorship, and career development.
• Foster an inclusive, high-performing team culture focused on ownership, learning, and delivery.
• Collaborate with product and platform engineering teams to make AI-assisted development workflows fast, safe, and observable.

Requirements

• 10+ years of software engineering experience, ideally with a focus on developer infrastructure, build/CI systems, platform engineering, or distributed systems.
• 4+ years of engineering management experience, including growing and managing teams of engineers across multiple charters.
• Experience as a Tech Lead or Engineering Manager leading the architecture, development, and long-term evolution of developer-facing platforms (CI/CD systems, development environments, build infrastructure, or similar).
• Familiarity with modern CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, or similar), cloud-based development environments, and container/VM orchestration.
• Working knowledge of AI-assisted development workflows and a point of view on how coding agents change developer infrastructure requirements.
• Strong technical communication skills and a track record of effective cross-team and leadership collaboration.
• Proven experience delivering and owning multi-year engineering initiatives in a leadership or technical leadership capacity.
• Comfortable working across org boundaries and aligning product, infra, and platform priorities.
