About the role
Who is Sonar?
Sonar enables organizations to ship agentic code with confidence. Code creation is abundant, but confidence is scarce. Our core platform, SonarQube, verifies over 750 billion lines of code every day, delivering agentic verification and governance for all code. Trusted by more than 7 million developers and 75% of the Fortune 100, including teams at Nvidia, ServiceNow, Booking.com, Goldman Sachs, AstraZeneca, and Ford Motor Company, Sonar enables organizations to reduce outages, improve security, and lower the cost and risk of agentic software development.
Founded in Geneva and now headquartered in Austin, Texas, Sonar has a global team working across offices and hubs, including Silicon Valley, London, Bochum, Barcelona, Singapore, Tokyo, and the Washington, D.C. area. At Sonar, we’re enabling enterprises to build agentic software factories that can move quickly while maintaining the control, consistency and evidence required to ship with confidence.
Position description
You will integrate Sonar’s business-critical systems (e.g. Salesforce, Stripe, NetSuite) and build standalone solutions for specific needs. This will typically involve applying AWS event-driven architecture to solve internal user needs via a scalable and reliable end-to-end business platform.
You will be responsible for the entire lifecycle of these solutions (architecture, to implementation, to ongoing monitoring and maintenance/improvements), working directly and in close partnership with business functions (e.g. Sales, Finance, Product).
Your work (reliable, scalable, performant and secure applications) and skills (ability to translate complex business needs, coupled with a strong sense of ownership, urgency and partnership) will make you a trusted partner who drives significant efficiency and process improvements for the company.
What you will do
-
Design, build and maintain serverless, event-driven integrations on AWS (Lambda, EventBridge, SQS, DynamoDB, Secrets Manager).
-
Evaluate in-house and third-party API options, based on Sonar’s specific operating context.
-
Build in-house web applications when third-party applications are unsuitable or unavailable.
-
Ensure non-functional requirements (e.g. security, scalability, reliability) are addressed, on an ongoing basis (e.g. monitoring UI, health-checks, alerts and notifications).
-
Work with stakeholders to understand requirements (stated as well as implied), document design decisions for peer-review/challenge.
-
Follow governance principles (e.g. least-privilege IAM, secret management), processes (e.g. change management approvals) and tools (e.g. CI/CD to ship changes safely).
Experience and qualifications
-
5+ years of professional full-stack development experience.
-
Proficiency in working with and steering AI coding tools (Codex, Claude, etc).
-
Hands-on AWS experience with serverless services and event-driven design.
-
Strong skills in a modern language (TypeScript preferred).
-
Clear written/verbal communication and experience with business/technical stakeholders.
-
Stripe/Salesforce integration will be a significant plus; Databricks experience nice to have.
-
Experience running production on-call for business-critical integrations.
-
Proactive, driven and attention to detail - willingness to take ownership.
In-office culture
We're intentional about this. We believe the best teams are built in the room together. Three anchor days — Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays — create the collaboration rhythm that makes a hub office worth having.
Candidates need to be genuinely based in the location the role is posted — if that's not where you are today, we're happy to support relocation for the right person.
We value diversity, equity, and inclusion
At Sonar, we believe that our diversity is our strength. We are a global company that values and respects different backgrounds, perspectives, and cultures. We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute their best. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and welcome all qualified applicants, regardless of race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.
If you need any accommodation, please reach out to us at hiring@sonarsource.com.
All offers of employment at Sonar are contingent upon the results of a comprehensive background check and reference verification conducted before the start date.
Applications that are submitted through agencies or third party recruiters will not be considered.
