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.


You’ll be joining the Engineering team. As part of one of the team’s autonomous squads, you will own, with your teammates, some domains of our product. You will contribute to the roadmap and the continuous improvement of SonarCloud and SonarQube, making our Sonar products the best tools for Clean Code, and helping our users write better software.


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.
  • Do sprints with your team to deliver those new features with the end user in mind.
  • Help maintain those features and take into account feedback from colleagues and the community.
  • Write unit tests and integration tests.
  • Do code reviews and provide meaningful feedback to your peers.
  • Help the team grow in its organization, tools, and processes.
  • Interact with our community on our product forum to support them.

The technical skills you will demonstrate

  • Strong experience in developing with TypeScript.
  • Proficiency with modern front-end development frameworks and ecosystems.
  • Even better if you are a React developer.
  • Good understanding of the Typescript ecosystem, tooling and CI/CD.
  • Fluency in source code quality, tests (unit and functional).
  • 5 years of experience in frontend development.

The soft skills you will demonstrate

  • Comfortable with agile practices and principles.
  • Comfortable in dealing with change and complexity.
  • Bold and self-confident to challenge the status quo and yet humble and open to being challenged.
  • Autonomous, proactive, and a fast learner.
  • You are a team player always willing to help and support others, helping them improve their autonomy.
  • You take initiative and have the ability to lead a subject from beginning to end.
  • You are able to pick your battles when under high load and focus on what matters most for your team.

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. All qualified applicants will be considered for employment without regard to race, colour, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.


All offers of employment at Sonar are contingent upon the clear results of a comprehensive background check conducted prior to the start date.
