Job Details

Who is Sonar?

Sonar helps prevent code quality and code security issues from reaching production, amplifies developers' productivity in concert with AI assistants, and improves the developer experience with streamlined workflows. Sonar analyzes all code, regardless of who writes it — your internal team, genAI, or third parties — resulting in more secure, reliable, and maintainable applications. Rooted in the open source community, Sonar’s solutions support over 30 programming languages, frameworks, and infrastructure technologies. Today, Sonar is used by +7M developers and 400K organizations worldwide, including the DoD, Microsoft, NASA, MasterCard, Siemens, and T-Mobile.

We believe in developing great products that are supported by great internal teams and a strong culture.  We are highly committed to and obsessed with the company, users, each other, and our open source community. We have high standards and hold each other accountable for acting with positivity, dedication, thoughtfulness, empathy, and passion daily. 

We are deliberate with our decisions with high clarity of intention. At the same time, we feel extreme urgency and move forward quickly. 

And lastly, we are highly effective and operationally efficient. We operate collectively as One Team to accomplish our goals.

At Sonar, CODE is more than just an acronym – it's a mindset that defines daily operations. 

Why You Should Apply: 

At Sonar, we’re a group of brilliant, motivated, and driven professionals working hard to help supercharge developers to build better, faster. Sonar helps to continuously improve code quality and code security while reducing developer toil. This means that developers can focus on doing more of what they love and less of what they don’t. Our solutions don’t just solve symptoms of problems – we help fix issues at the source – for all code, whether it's developer-written, AI-generated, or from third parties.

We have a dynamic culture with employees worldwide and hub offices in the USA, Switzerland, the UK, Singapore, and Germany. Team members should be able to come to work every day, work on a product they are proud of, love what they do, and feel energized by their peers. With our roots deep in the open source community, we’re all about the mission: supercharge developers to build better, faster.

The Impact You Will Have:

Join us in shaping the future of SonarQube's on-premises platform, directly empowering over 10 million developers worldwide to write cleaner, more secure code. As a DevOps Engineer in our Platform Team, you'll be at the forefront of enhancing SonarQube's reliability and ease of use in both on-premise cloud environments.

You'll make a direct impact by implementing user-facing, product-oriented features like GCP Marketplace integration and FIPS compliance, directly improving how our customers deploy and manage SonarQube. You'll work hand-in-hand with developers, actively strengthening SonarQube's architecture to enhance its overall operability.
Based in our Geneva office, you will be part of a collaborative, innovative, and fast-paced squad that thrives on technical excellence and ownership. You'll work alongside highly skilled engineers to simplify complex platform operations, ensuring reliability and performance for our open-source community of over 500,000 members and tens of thousands of corporate customers, including industry leaders like NASA, Novartis, Ubisoft, and Microsoft. If you are passionate about building robust, scalable backend systems and driving significant impact, we want you on our team.

As part of the role, you will participate in an on-call rotation to provide timely support and address any critical system issues that may arise outside of regular working hours.

What You Will Do Daily:
  • Collaborate with developers to strengthen the SonarQube architecture, directly enhancing its operability and ensuring a seamless experience for our users.
  • Implement product-oriented features that improve how SonarQube is deployed and managed across various environments, including private and public clouds.
  • Maintain and enhance our Helm charts and Dockerfiles to ensure smooth and efficient deployments of SonarQube in containerized setups and Kubernetes clusters.
  • Operate and monitor our production SonarQube instance hosted on AWS, ensuring high availability, performance, and reliability.
  • Improve our pre-production environments by applying infrastructure-as-code principles using tools like Terraform and Ansible, making our testing and validation processes more robust and automated.

The Experience You Will Need:
  • Proficiency with containerization technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes, including maintaining Helm charts and Dockerfiles.
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform and Ansible for managing and provisioning environments. Experience with CDK is a plus.
  • Solid understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, Load Balancing, Firewalls) relevant to cloud and containerized environments, and how to troubleshoot any related issues.
  • Strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines and how to integrate continuous testing and deployment practices.
  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms, particularly AWS, including deploying and managing applications.
  • Proficiency in a scripting language (e.g., Python, Go, Bash) for automation of infrastructure tasks, configuration management, and operational tooling.
  • Solid experience in DevOps or SRE roles, with a proven track record of improving system operability and reliability.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with software development teams, providing guidance on architectural improvements and best practices for operability.
  • A problem-solving mindset, with the ability to identify and address complex technical challenges in a production environment.
  • Experience operating and monitoring production systems, ensuring high availability and performance.

Why You Will Love It Here:
  • Our culture and mission set us apart. We have a dynamic work culture that values respect and kindness and embraces the right to fail (and get right back up again!). 
  • Great people make a great company. We value people skills as much as technical skills and strive to keep things friendly while still being passionate leaders in our domains. 
  • We have a flexible work policy that includes 3 days in-office and 2 days work-from-home each week for those located near our office locations; some locations such as Dubai, India, Japan and Australia operate fully remotely.
  • We have a growth mindset. We love learning and believe continuous education is critical to our success. In an ever-changing industry, new skills are necessary, and we're happy to help our team acquire them.
  • As the leader in our field, our products and services are as strong as our internal team members.
  • We embrace transparency with regular meetings, cascading messages and updates on the growth and success of our organization.

Benefits of Working With Sonar:
  • We encourage usage of our robust time-off allocations with 27 PTO days for our employees based out of the Geneva region, plus additional days based on seniority and circumstances.
  • We contribute 60% of the total cost for your pension; 13.5% to 15.5% of your base salary for savings; 2% for risk.
  • Generous discretionary Company Growth Bonus, paid annually.  
  • Commuting: Sustainable mobility options, including carpooling and the refund of 60% of the annual transportation subscription.
  • Global workforce with employees in 20+ countries representing 35+ unique nationalities.
  • We have an annual kick-off somewhere in the world where we meet to build relationships and goals for the company.
