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.

Our team specializes in delivering features for large customers on our enterprise plans.

You will have the opportunity to see your features come to life in Production with short iteration loops. While keeping our roadmap and business priorities in mind, you will be able to have a high impact on the software that we own and develop.

By joining us you will bring your experience and expertise to help push our product to its next stage of evolution and fulfill the needs of our large user and customer base.

    • Have strong ownership of the team’s work and drive sprints to completion.
    • Deploy and monitor our new features in production.
    • Help solve production problems related to our team’s features.
    • Provide mentorship to engineers to help them grow in their technical responsibilities and remove blockers to their autonomy.
    • Work with agile methodologies.
    • Contribute to the definition of the team’s short and long-term goals.

Required Technical Skills

    • 6+ years of experience as a Java Software Engineer.
    • 1+ year of experience as a Staff Engineer or equivalent level.
    • Developing in Java with clean and maintainable code, having design patterns and application’s architecture in mind.
    • Good knowledge of engineering processes, structural design, and system optimization.
    • Excellent engineering skills and a good understanding of Computer Science fundamentals.
    • Leadership: you’re able to take initiative and bring a subject to completion with little to no supervision. You have experience supporting and mentoring other team members.
    • Experience architecting cloud-native applications on AWS.
    • Experience with relational RDBMS (such as Postgres) and SQLCode Quality practices (experience in using testing frameworks), constructive code reviews.
    • Tooling: Knowledge of build tools (Maven or Gradle); Experience with a version control system such as git

    • Nice to have:

    • Experience with NoSQL databases such as DynamoDB.
    • Experience with the design and implementation of REST web services APIs.
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.

We are committed to creating a diverse work environment and are proud to be an equal-opportunity employer.
