Jobbeschreibung

Who is Sonar

Sonar helps prevent code quality and code security issues from reaching production. It 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 7 million developers and 400 000 organizations worldwide, including the DoD, Microsoft, NASA, MasterCard, Siemens, and T‑Mobile.

Why You Should Apply

At Sonar we are a group of brilliant, motivated and driven professionals working hard to help supercharge developers to build better and faster. Sonar helps continuously improve code quality and code security while reducing developer toil. Developers can focus on doing more of what they love and less of what they don’t. Our solutions don’t just solve symptoms; we fix issues at the source for all code, whether it’s developer‑written, AI‑generated, or from third parties.

The Impact You Will Have

As a member of one of our engineering squads you will leverage your experience and expertise to design and develop cloud‑based solutions and migrate existing applications to cloud‑native ones. You will implement massively scalable services, automate system operations, measure and continuously improve service quality, and make the lives of other developers easier. You will play a key role in helping our product reach its next stage of evolution and delight our users and customers, and participate in an on‑call rotation to provide timely support outside of regular working hours.

What You Will Do Daily

• Develop, enhance, and operate cloud solutions on AWS with a focus on automation, high performance, scalability, and cost‑efficiency.
• Define novel cloud solution designs and lead their development.
• Work in sprints with other engineers (backend, frontend, SRE and other CPEs) as part of a cross‑functional team to deliver new features into production.
• Collaborate with other squads in Product Development and Mission Control (InfraSec IST) to ensure solutions fit into the Sonar platform.
• Contribute to your squad’s efforts in the investigation of alarms, SLOs, and incidents to maintain a high quality of service.

The Experience You Will Need

• 3+ years of experience architecting, developing, and operating cloud solutions on AWS.
• In‑depth knowledge of AWS networking and services such as CloudFront, CloudWatch, Lambda, EC2, ECS, SNS, SQS, and RDS.
• Advanced proficiency in Infrastructure as Code with at least one of the following tools: AWS CloudFormation, AWS CDK (preferred), or Terraform.
• Experience with at least one programming language such as Python, Java, C#, or similar.
• Experience with at least one scripting language such as Bash.
• Strong DevOps mindset and experience working in an agile environment.
• Self‑confident enough to challenge the status quo and give and receive feedback.

Why You Will Love It Here

• Our culture and mission set us apart; we value respect, kindness, and 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 keep a friendly, passionate environment.
• Flexible work policy: 3 days in‑office and 2 days work‑from‑home each week for those near our office locations; some locations operate fully remotely.
• Growth mindset: continuous learning and education are critical; we support acquiring new skills.
• Strong leadership and transparency through regular meetings and updates.

Benefits of Working With Sonar

• Pension Scheme: 1st Pillar (Unterstützungskasse) – automatically financed by Sonar at 3% of gross salary.
• Pension Scheme: 2nd Pillar (bAV) – voluntary 15% contribution by Sonar from social security savings.
• 28 PTO days (Genève region) plus additional days based on seniority and circumstances.
• Generous discretionary Company Growth Bonus paid annually.
• Public transport reimbursement of 60% for annual subscription.
• Global workforce with employees in 20 countries and 35 unique nationalities.
• Annual global kick‑off to build relationships and set company goals.

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 an inclusive work environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute their best.
