Security Engineer, IAM

About the role

The Security Team is responsible for securing all things Sentry: our customers, our code, and everything in between. We are a small but growing team with broad scope, high trust, and the autonomy to tackle hard security problems with creativity and an engineering mindset. We work at a company with a strong developer culture, building a product that millions of developers genuinely love and rely on. That context shapes everything about how we operate.

Responsibilities

• Own and mature identity and access management infrastructure and tooling like SSO, MFA, directory services across corporate, development and production cloud environments.
• Continuously improve Sentry’s identity and access control practices with automation and self-service support for onboarding/offboarding, joiners/movers/leavers, access reviews, privileged access management, SaaS lifecycle management, and security incident response workflows.
• Champion and implement secure-by-design access principles like attribute and context aware grants, comprehensive logging, just-in-time (JIT) provisioning, least privilege, policy-as-code automation principles, and zero-trust.
• Secure our human and non-human identities: user accounts, service accounts, API keys, OAuth clients, agentic, and workload identities.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of industry experience designing, building, securing workforce identity and access control systems for corporate, development, and large-scale distributed cloud systems
• Degree in Computer Science or a related field, equivalent training, or professional experience
• Proficiency in Python and other scripting languages, Terraform and infrastructure-as-code tools, and building integrations via APIs, SCIM and webhooks
• Experience with a breadth of identity platforms IDP, IGA, PAM, CloudIAM, etc.
• Familiarity with cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure), containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes), and securing CI/CD and source controls tools (Github, Gitlab)
• A collaborative approach to problem solving paired with strong written and verbal communication
