Partner Engineer (Technology Partnerships)

Join Sonar as a Partner Engineer, where you will serve as a technical architect of our partner ecosystem. You will design and build high-quality integrations with leading DevOps, CI/CD, and AI-assisted developer platform partners. Your work will directly support our ecosystem strategy, transforming integrations into powerful drivers of user adoption and business growth. You will act as the primary technical expert for Sonar’s technology partners, identify integration options, and design integration-based solutions. Additionally, you will produce technical content, assist partners with integration deployments, and facilitate interactions between partners and Sonar’s Product Management and Engineering functions.

• Act as the primary technical expert for Sonar’s technology partners, translating their capabilities into integration and go-to-market opportunities for Sonar.
• Identify integration options between Sonar and its tech partners, construct reference architectures, assess feasibility of custom technical integrations, and influence Sonar’s partner integration roadmap.
• Design, architect, prototype, and demonstrate integration-based solutions with Sonar’s products and those from Sonar’s technical partners, including DevOps and CI/CD providers.
• 5+ years of experience in software engineering with the ability to architect, design and develop software in languages such as Java, TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, or Go. Proficiency with REST APIs, GraphQL, webhooks, and authentication standards (OAuth, SAML), including experience designing or consuming complex APIs is a strong plus
• Strong understanding of (and passion for!) agentic software development, including MCP and CLI integration methods and plugin models for leading agentic code providers (e.g., Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot, Cursor and Cognition)
• Practitioner proficiency with DevOps and CI/CD tools (e.g., GitHub, GitLab, Atlassian, Azure DevOps, Jenkins) and IDE platforms (e.g., VS Code, JetBrains), particularly with respect to their integration and plugin frameworks
• 5+ years of experience working in a partner-facing or sales-facing technical role, such as Partner Engineering, Solutions Engineering, Sales Engineering, or Developer Advocacy.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to create compelling technical content and explain complex integration architectures to both business and technical stakeholders. Demonstrable track record of thought leadership through published content and speaking engagements
• Strong business acumen, and adept at discussing go-to-market strategy with business leaders
• Familiarity with AI/ML platforms (e.g., Databricks, AWS Bedrock, AWS SageMaker, Google Cloud Vertex AI, and Azure AI Foundry) including experience with marketplace listings, partner directories, and positioning developer tools within cloud-native AI workflows is a plus
