Summary

I worked on two impactful projects during my summer 2023 internship with Sentry, a DevOps platform that helps developers monitor and manage their software applications. I first contributed to the development of a deployment visualizer, a React-based application that provides a user interface for Sentry's deployment pipelines, allowing engineers to quickly diagnose deployment errors and understand the current deployment status. I also extended the functionality of a Kubernetes agent that integrates cluster error tracking with Sentry Crons, improving the reporting of Kubernetes cronjob events and integrating them with the new feature, driven by feedback from Sentry users who wanted a Kubernetes solution for their recurring jobs. Throughout the internship, I gained valuable experience working with wonderful mentors, learned to tailor projects to maximize customer satisfaction, and developed diverse technical skills addressing the needs at Sentry in different ways.
