Senior Java/Kotlin Software Engineer – Static Code Analysis

What You Will Do Daily:

• Have strong ownership of the team’s work and lead the execution of its sprints to completion: do specifications, write code and tests, review code from peers, validate features, and follow up on user feedback after the release. As the domain is quite new for SonarSource, you’ll often participate in investigations, explorations, and designing “Proof-of-Concept”.
• Develop new and maintain existing features for the Kotlin, Swift, and Dart code analyzers.
• Dive deep into the Mobile domain languages and argue about the best guidelines to use them effectively.
• Evolve the way our analyzers understand code by creating better models and developing new rules on top of them.
• Interact with compiler front-ends for Kotlin, Swift and Dart and have the opportunity to contribute back to them.
• Provide mentorship to engineers to help them grow in their technical responsibilities and remove blockers to their autonomy.
• Collaborate with Product Managers and peers to define new features and set priorities, ensuring that the solutions fit into the Sonar ecosystem.
• Coordinate with different stakeholders to define the team’s short and long-term goals.

• 6+ years of experience as a software developer.
• Technical versatility and readiness to work on different technical stacks.
• Good knowledge of engineering processes.
• Excellent engineering skills and a good understanding of Computer Science fundamentals.
• You have experience supporting and mentoring other team members.

• Comfortable in dealing with change and complexity.
