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.

Program Design & Evolution: Architect and maintain our tiered partner program, transitioning from traditional volume-based metrics to a value-added system (rewarding certifications, lead-gen, and technical mastery).
Partner Enablement: Collaborate with the Enablement team and Engineering/Services teams to create technical and sales onboarding paths, service creation, and certification tracks.
Incentive Management: Design and manage referral fees, co-marketing funds (MDF), and performance-based rebates that align with our strategic goals.
Tooling & Operations: Own the Partner Relationship Management (PRM) platform. Automate the "value" tracking, deal registration, and tier advancement processes to ensure a "self-service" feel for partners.

with Developer Tools space (e.g., Cloud, DevOps, Security, or Data) and advantage.

Internal Communication: While technical expertise isn't a requirement, you will need to comfortably navigate Sonar's internal ecosystem and collaborate with key stakeholders to guarantee company-wide participation in the program.
Operational Mindset: Experience building or managing a value-based loyalty/incentive system is a massive plus.
Systems Fluency: Proficiency with Salesforce and PRM tools (e.g., Impartner, Channel Mechanics Allbound, etc).
External Communication: A key resource and thought leader for the Sonar program, confidently presenting and articulating the Partner Program to essential partners, and offering necessary support.
