About the role

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.

About the Role

Sonar is seeking a Senior Sales Engineer to serve as the technical voice of our AWS go-to-market motion and the trusted advisor to enterprise customers evaluating Sonar's code quality, SAST, secrets detection, and AI code assurance capabilities on AWS. This is a senior pre-sales position for someone with deep, hands-on knowledge of the AWS ecosystem who can translate Sonar's value into technical wins — leading discovery, demos, proofs of value, and architecture conversations alongside AWS account teams and adjacent ISV partners.

The Senior SE will partner closely with Account Executives and AWS Partner Solution Architects to drive technical validation of Sonar in customer environments — from first technical discovery through POC execution to closed-won and deployment. This individual must be equally fluent in live technical demonstration and executive business narrative, capable of representing Sonar in customer briefings, AWS-led technical workshops, and field events at the highest levels of the sales cycle.

Technology Tools

Cloud Platform: AWS (Compute, Storage, Containers/EKS, CodeCatalyst, CodePipeline, CodeBuild, Bedrock, Security Hub, GuardDuty, Inspector, Secrets Manager, IAM Identity Center)
Marketplace & Co-Sell Motions: AWS Marketplace (SaaS Contracts, Private Offers, CPPO), ISV Accelerate co-sell, Partner Central opportunity registration
Certifications: AWS Solutions Architect Associate or Professional, AWS Specialty Certifications (Security, DevOps Engineer Professional) preferred
DevOps Platforms (analysis ingress): GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps
Adjacent ISV Ecosystem: Snyk, JFrog, HashiCorp, Datadog, Mend, Checkmarx, Anthropic / OpenAI (LLM code-gen providers integrated with Bedrock)

What You Will Do:

Partner with Account Executives as the lead technical resource on AWS-aligned enterprise opportunities — driving discovery, qualification, technical demos, and proof-of-value execution from first call to closed-won.

Design and deliver tailored Sonar demonstrations against the customer's actual AWS environment, CI/CD pipelines, and use cases — covering SonarQube Server, SonarQube Cloud, AI Code Assurance, and AI CodeFix in realistic enterprise contexts.

Scope, lead, and bring to successful technical close customer POCs and pilots, including those funded through AWS programs (Innovation Sandbox, MAP, ISV Accelerate), ensuring each engagement produces clear technical win criteria and measurable customer outcomes.
