Who is Sonar?

Sonar is driving the future of agent-centric software development. As the leader in AI code review and verification, 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

Sonar is looking for a passionate product design generalist to join our Product Design team, which owns the experience for our robust platform of code quality and security products. You will belong to one of our product areas, where you’ll help ensure that our developer and agent users write better code and have a seamless experience in the product.

You will work closely with Product Management and Engineering to ensure that the proposed solutions meet the expected outcome and that we collectively deliver the best products to help development teams write better and more secure code. You will also collaborate with other designers and researchers across the organization, ensuring consistency and contributing to best practices.

What you will do

  • Own product design for a squad and advocate for a world-class user experience.

  • Research and map complex user workflows to ensure our solutions are intuitive and highly functional.

  • Integrate AI into every stage of your design workflow, leveraging it to accelerate research synthesis, automate repetitive tasks, and explore high-fidelity prototypes more efficiently.

  • Listen to our users and customers to understand their needs. Develop a deep understanding of the SDLC and how we can enable developers and AI agents to produce better quality software.

  • Work closely with other product designers to ensure a cohesive information architecture and a unified experience across the entire product platform.

  • Align with your product manager on problem definition, providing design solutions throughout the end-to-end development stage.

  • Partner with engineering teams early in the design process to vet technical feasibility and uncover edge cases.

  • Help the Product Design team grow by contributing to our design processes, tools, and collaborative frameworks.

Experience and qualifications

  • Experience organizing data-heavy environments into logical structures and mapping user journeys that minimize friction.

  • Demonstrated curiosity and practical experience using AI tools to accelerate research, ideation and design velocity.

  • A self-starter mindset with the drive to identify UX gaps and propose structural improvements without being prompted.

  • Ability to articulate design decisions and the "why" behind them to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

  • Comfort working in a cross-functional environment where feedback is shared openly and success is a team effort.

  • Delivery mindset. Your role does not end when the design is handed off.

  • Bonus points if you have a technical background in computer science or software development.

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.
