Software Engineer, Intern (Summer 2027)

Sentry helps developers fix errors and performance issues before users notice, so teams can spend less time firefighting and more time building. Trusted by 200,000+ organizations, Sentry is today’s application monitoring standard and our team is building its AI-native future.

About the role

Software Engineering Interns at Sentry write real code on real projects that ship to production. No HackerRank. No fetch-the-coffee. Just you, a team that actually trusts you, and a codebase used by millions of developers every day, including the ones building the AI tools everyone's talking about.

• Be matched with a Product or Infrastructure Engineering team based on what you're into and what you're good at
• Own a project end-to-end: tech spec, scoping, implementation, testing, and shipping
• Write code that goes to production and matters to real users
• Use AI tooling the way engineers actually use it, as part of the workflow, not a party trick
• Get real feedback from engineers who care about craft, not just velocity
• Contribute to open source every day (yes, really)

You’ll love this job if you

• Want to be treated like an engineer, not "an intern"
• Care about how software actually works
• Are excited about where AI is taking software development and want to build in the middle of it
• Want mentorship that's real, not scheduled
• Like shipping things and seeing them used

Requirements

• Currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program in Computer Science or a related field
• Proficient in Python, JavaScript, or a similar dynamic language, picked up through internships, personal projects, or coursework
• Solid grasp of algorithms and data structures fundamentals
• Comfortable using GitHub: branching, pull requests, code review, the works
• Experience collaborating on an engineering project with a team (class, open source, work, it counts)
• Can pick up a new language or framework quickly and run with it
• At least one previous internship or equivalent hands-on experience
• Available to start May 2027 and able to relocate to San Francisco for the duration of the internship (we'll help get you there and cover housing)
