About the role
- Act as the primary technical liaison for product partners, translating their platform capabilities into integration opportunities for Sonar.
- Design and architect robust integration solutions that connect Sonar with external ecosystems (e.g., GitHub, GitLab, Atlassian, Azure DevOps, Jenkins).
- Independently write production-grade code to build and deploy straightforward integrations, plugins, or marketplace apps.
- Collaborate closely with the core Product and Engineering teams to scope, guide, and validate complex integrations that require deep platform changes.
- Work alongside the Business Development and Product Partnerships teams to assess technical feasibility and prioritize the ecosystem roadmap.
- Produce high-quality technical content, including integration guides, reference architectures, blog posts, and demos, to market these integrations to the developer community.
- Provide expert feedback to internal API teams to improve the developer experience and extensibility of the Sonar platform.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in software engineering with the ability to independently design and build production-grade software in languages such as Java, TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, or Go.
- Deep proficiency with REST APIs, GraphQL, webhooks, and authentication standards (OAuth, SAML), including experience designing or consuming complex APIs.
- Strong understanding of the DevOps landscape and hands-on experience with CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, CircleCI, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Familiarity with agentic software development, AI-assisted software development tools, and emerging technologies including e Model Context Protocol (MCP).
- Proven experience working in a partner-facing technical role, such as Partner Engineering, Solutions Engineering, Sales Engineering, or Developer Advocacy.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to create compelling technical content and explain complex integration architectures to both business and technical stakeholders.
- Familiarity with building plugins or extensions for major developer platforms (e.g., Jira apps, GitHub Apps, VS Code extensions) is a strong plus.
- Strong business acumen combined with a solid technical foundation; you are comfortable discussing API designs with engineers and negotiating go-to-market strategy with business leaders.
