Job Details

Why should I Apply:

At Sonar, we’re a group of brilliant, motivated, and driven professionals working hard to help organizations build responsible, secure, high-quality code quickly and systematically. We build solutions that don’t just solve symptoms of problems – we fix problems at the source – source code, to be specific.

We have a dynamic culture with employees worldwide and hub offices in the USA, Switzerland, the UK, Singapore, and Germany. We believe team members should have the opportunity 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: provide solutions that deliver Clean Code.

The impact you will have

As a member of one of our engineering teams, you'll be a key player in making SonarCloud the best tool for Code Quality and Security, providing new features that help our users write better software and delivering a high quality, amazingly powerful, and popular open-source product.

You will have the opportunity to see your features come to life in Production with short iteration loops. Having the roadmap and business priorities in mind, you will be able to choose what you focus on.

By joining us you will bring your experience and expertise to push our product to its next stage of evolution to delight our users and customers.

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.

On a daily basis, you will

Work with Product Managers and UX designers to specify new features and improve the product.
Develop those new features with the end user in mind, and write unit tests and integration tests for them.
Push and monitor your new features into production.
Help to solve production problems related to features you worked on.
Interact with our community on our product forum to support them and integrate their feedback.
Work with agile methodologies.
Contribute to the definition of the team’s short and long-term goals.
Do sprints with an integrated (Dev and Ops) team.

Required Technical Skills

+5 years of experience as a Backend Developer with Java.
Developing in Java with clean and maintainable code, having design patterns and architecture in mind.
Good Computer Science fundamentals.
Experience with relational RDBMS (such as MySQL, SQL Server, Postgres).
Code Quality practices (experience in using testing frameworks) and constructive code reviews.
Tooling: Knowledge of build tools (Maven or Gradle); Experience with any version control system (we use git, and you can learn it when you join !)
Good experience on AWS, ideally developing a cloud-native application

Nice to have:

Knowledge of Python and Bash scripting
Experience with NoSQL databases such as DynamoDB
Experience with API design and third-party integrations

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!). We believe that the best idea wins and everyone has a voice.

• We believe that great people make a great company. We value people skills as much as technical skills and strive to keep things friendly and laid-back while still being passionate leaders in our domains. Our 550+ SonarSourcers from 33 different nationalities can relate!

• We embrace work-life balance. It is important to maintain a healthy work-life balance. This is why we have a flexible work policy that includes remote and in-office hybrid work (minimum three days a week in the office - Monday/Tuesday/Thursday).

• We have a growth mindset. We love to learn and believe that continuous education is critical to our success. In an ever-changing industry, new skills are a must, and we're happy to help our team acquire them.

We prioritize Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion:

At Sonar, we are a global workforce and recognize the value of different backgrounds, and global cultures.
