关于团队
计费团队位于产品、财务和基础设施的交汇点。他们负责确保每个可观察事件——错误、日志、追踪、令牌——都能被准确计量、定价和计费。他们的工作直接影响公司收入和客户信任，需要分布式系统专业知识、对财务准确性的关注以及对产品使用模式的深入理解。该团队与产品、工程、BizOps、市场和销售跨职能合作，构建支持新产品和定价模型的系统。
关于职位
作为高级软件工程师，你将设计和扩展支撑 Sentry 计费基础设施的核心系统，确保在大规模下的准确性与可靠性。
- 你将参与构建 Sentry 下一代使用跟踪流水线，每天处理数百亿个事件，具有低延迟和金融级准确性。
- 你将帮助设计灵活的定价基础结构，支持从按事件计费到复杂企业合同的各种场景，使产品和销售团队能够快速实验，同时保持收入准确性并缩短新产品上市时间。
- 你将参与针对计费独特数据一致性挑战的技术决策——如处理事件延迟、追溯性定价变更以及跨我们基础设施的分布式计数核对。
如果你喜欢这份工作，是因为：
- 想解决“容易解释，难以构建”的问题——比如确保客户的账单与其使用情况完全匹配，即使每天在分布式系统中处理数百亿个事件。
- 在约束中追求优雅设计：财务准确性不容妥协，客户信任依赖于计费透明度，系统必须随着 Sentry 用户和产品增长而扩展，而无需每年重新架构。
- 享受与组织内各方合作——从 BizOps 和销售到市场和领导层——你的代码直接影响 ARR，你的架构决策会出现在董事会级别的指标中。
要在这样的环境中茁壮成长，你需要：

ABOUT SENTRY
Software runs the world and the pace is faster than ever. 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 TEAM
The Billing team sits at the intersection of product, finance, and infrastructure. They're responsible for ensuring every observable event—errors, logs, traces, tokens—gets accurately measured, priced, and billed. Their work directly impacts company revenue and customer trust, requiring distributed systems expertise, attention to financial accuracy, and deep understanding of product usage patterns. The team works cross-functionally with product, engineering, BizOps, marketing, and sales to build systems that enable new products and pricing models.
ABOUT THE ROLE
As a Senior Software Engineer, you will architect and scale the core systems that power Sentry's billing infrastructure, ensuring accuracy and reliability at massive scale.
- You will collaborate on building the next generation of Sentry’s usage tracking pipeline, processing hundreds of billions of events daily with low latency and financial-grade accuracy.
- You will help design flexible pricing primitives that support everything from per-event usage billing to complex enterprise contracts, enabling product and sales teams to experiment rapidly while maintaining revenue accuracy and reduced time-to-market for new products.
- You will contribute to technical decisions on data consistency challenges unique to billing—like handling event delays, retroactive pricing changes, and distributed count reconciliation across our infrastructure.
YOU'LL LOVE THIS JOB IF YOU
- Want to solve the "easy to explain, hard to build" problems—like ensuring a customer's bill matches their usage perfectly, even when processing hundreds of billions of events daily across distributed systems.
- Thrive on constraints that force elegant design: financial accuracy is non-negotiable, customer trust depends on billing transparency, and the system must scale with Sentry's user and product growth without rearchitecting every year.
- Enjoy partnering across the organization—from BizOps and sales to marketing and leadership—where your code directly impacts ARR and your architectural decisions show up in board-level metrics.
TO THRIVE IN THIS ROLE, YOU HAVE
- Built or significantly improved systems with high-stakes accuracy requirements.
- Mentored engineers through ambiguous, high-stakes projects.
- Operated services where reliability includes uptime and also financial correctness.
