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 :

As a Developer Content Engineer, you will be the authentic voice that connects Sonar’s products (SonarQube Server, Cloud, IDE, MCP Server, Advanced Security) to the global developer community.  Your work will directly shape how practitioners using Sonar products—including developers, DevOps, and platform engineers—approach code quality and security. You will be the trusted expert, translating complex capabilities into practical knowledge. By crafting compelling, hands-on educational content, such as in-depth tutorials, blogs, and engaging videos, you will enable millions of practitioners to write high quality, secure code. You won't just explain features; you will define the developer's journey with our products, establishing Sonar as an essential part of their SDLC workflow. This is a unique opportunity to blend your passion for building software with your talent for teaching, making a direct and lasting impact on how developers worldwide build the next generation of applications.

What You Will Do Daily :

  • Create SonarQube product content that enables developers
  • You will write, produce, and maintain a variety of high-impact technical content, including hands-on tutorials, in-depth blog posts, practical how-to guides, and engaging videos.
  • You'll develop comprehensive learning content and real-world project examples that guide developers from beginner to advanced users of Sonar's tools.
  • You will demonstrate how to solve real-world problems by integrating SonarQube into CI / CD pipelines, identifying critical vulnerabilities, and improving overall code maintainability.
  • You'll build compelling, hands-on labs and workshops that allow developers to directly experience the value of our tools and best practices.
  • You will use AI to scale content creation and produce even higher impact work.

Be a trusted voice in the developer community

  • You will act as an authentic, technical expert for Sonar on our blog, social media channels, and other developer forums.
  • You'll engage directly with the developer community to understand their pain points, gather feedback, and use those insights to shape your content strategy.
  • You will monitor industry trends across software development, application security, and DevOps to ensure our content is always relevant, timely, and forward-thinking.
  • Own the quality and Impact of your work

  • You will work hands-on with Sonar's products every day, ensuring that all content, code samples, and configurations are technically accurate and practically useful.
  • You'll collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and Marketing teams to translate complex product capabilities into clear, actionable content.
  • You will use analytics to measure content performance, understand what resonates with our audience, and use that data to optimize your strategy and future content.
  • You’ll do all of this while communicating in interesting, compelling, and creative ways, while displaying good grammar and copywriting skills.
  • You’ll work independently to identify what content gaps need filling and propose content to fill them.
  • The Experience You Will Need :

  • Hands-on experience with SonarQube (SonarQube Cloud / Server, SonarQube for IDE) in production or development environments
  • Strong software development or DevOps background with proficiency in some programming languages
  • Solid understanding of DevOps practices including CI / CD pipelines, version control (Git), and automation tools (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, etc.)
  • Experience with code quality, security, and testing concepts including SAST, DAST, code coverage, and vulnerability management
  • Proven track record of creating technical content for developer audiences (provide portfolio / examples)
  • Video creation and good speaking skills
  • 2-5 years previous development experience is ideal, but experience working closely with developers is a fair substitute.
  • 2-3 years professional content creation experience or previous experience in Developer Relations Content role, or Developer Marketing
  • 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 :

  • Flexible comprehensive employee benefit package.
  • We encourage usage of our robust time-off allocations. You will receive  23 days of PTO per calendar year (on a pro-rated basis depending on your employment start date), with additional time provided for sickness, life events and holidays.
  • We offer an exciting 401(k) plan that has a 4% match, fully vested on day one of participation.
  • Generous discretionary Company Growth Bonus, paid annually.
  • Fully paid parking in the heart of downtown Austin, Texas.
  • 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.
  • Monthly catered events, and team events
  • We Value Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion :

    At Sonar, we believe that our diversity is our strength. We are a global company that values and respects different backgrounds, perspectives, and cultures.

    We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute their best. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and welcome all qualified applicants, regardless of race, color, 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 precise results of a comprehensive background check and reference verification conducted before the start date.

    We do not currently support visa candidates in the US.

    Applications that are submitted through agencies or third party recruiters will not be considered.
