Head of Developer Experience

Responsibilities

• Own strategy and execution for Sentry's integration ecosystem and developer platform APIs
• Work closely with EPD to define the developer-facing surface and ensure building on Sentry is a genuinely good experience
• Lead the documentation function across SDK configuration docs, API reference, and tutorials
• Connect docs to the product experience: logged-in state, contextual guidance, health checks, and surfacing adoption gaps in-context
• Own Sentry's developer community across Discord, social, and events
• Build the team and processes that turn engagement into measurable outcomes: signups, adoption, support deflection
• Build and deliver content and education programs — workshops, deep dives, fireside chats — that teach developers tracing, debugging, and how to use Sentry's full product surface
• Build relationships with builders, toolmakers, and platform partners who extend Sentry's reach

Requirements

• 7+ years in developer relations, developer experience, or a closely related technical role, with at least 3 years managing people
• Experience owning or deeply influencing a developer platform, integration ecosystem, or SDK surface
• Track record of building developer communities that drive measurable product outcomes
• Strong technical writing instincts and demonstrated experience raising the bar on documentation quality
• You've shipped code and can evaluate code samples for correctness
• Experience building or scaling a developer community with measurable impact
• Comfort operating with ambiguity and resetting scope independently

Nice-to-Haves

• Observability, monitoring, or developer tooling background
