Job description

Who is Sonar?

Sonar is driving the future of agent-centric software development. As the leader in AI code verification and governance, we solve a critical problem: ensuring that software generated by AI-assisted developers or autonomous agents is reliable, secure, and maintainable.

Integrating seamlessly with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini, and Devin, we help over 75% of the Fortune 100 build trusted, reliable, compliant software. Customers who use Sonar are 44% less likely to report an outage due to AI-generated code.

We believe code verification is the critical missing link in the Agent-Centric Development Cycle (AC/DC). Industry giants like Nvidia, ServiceNow, Booking.com, Goldman Sachs, AstraZeneca, and Ford Motor Company count on us to provide independent, explainable, consistent review and governance of their AI-generated code via products like:

• SonarQube: The world’s leading AI code review and verification platform.
• SonarQube Foundation Agent: Currently topping the leaderboards for agentic software repair.
• SonarSweep & Sonar Context Augmentation: Providing the enterprise-grade context and constraints agents need to be truly effective.

Our team operates across global hubs in Austin, Bochum, Dubai, Geneva, London, Singapore, Tokyo, and Washington D.C. We move with a mindset we call CODE:

• Committed to our customers and community.
• Obsessed with quality.
• Deliberate in our decisions.
• Effective as one team.

With over $400M in revenue and profitable, fast-paced growth, we are building the backbone of the AI software revolution. If you’re hungry to have an impact, want to build at a fast pace, and ready to work at the forefront of AI, we want to hear from you.

Position description

As Technical Communications Manager at Sonar, you will own the bridge between deep product expertise and compelling public narrative. This is a rare role built for someone who understands how software gets built, has lived inside product marketing, and wants to use that fluency to shape how we communicate the Sonar narrative through our marketing campaigns, brand, and communications functions.

You will lead all product-related storytelling for our communications function — translating complex technical capabilities into narratives that land with engineers, developers, and technical decision-makers. You are the connective tissue between our technical PMMs and the communications, social, and brand teams, ensuring that what we build gets told with precision, context, and resonance.

You think in campaigns. You understand the full marketing journey and the customer experience from awareness to advocacy. You are deeply community-minded and know that the most powerful communications today happen in the channels where developers actually live: forums, open-source threads, social feeds, and technical communities. This role will shape how Sonar earns credibility and trust in those spaces.
