Sonar is the independent AI code verification platform trusted by 7M+ developers & organizations to help build secure, reliable software with confidence. Backed by General Catalyst and Insight.
About the role
Define and evangelize: Own the positioning and messaging hierarchy for the Sonar platform, grounded in customer outcomes rather than feature lists, and carry that narrative across every stage of the customer journey. Shape the AI narrative: Build Sonar's point of view on the AC/DC (agentic SDLC), including AI coding tools, coding agents, and LLM-generated code, based on hands-on use of tools like Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and Windsurf.
What they're looking for
- Proven leadership: 10+ years in Product Marketing within DevOps, AppSec, or Enterprise Software, including 2+ years at Principal level or higher. Experience working closely with developers is a strong plus
- Technical depth: Engineering degree or equivalent technical background preferred, with real understanding of the SDLC, CI/CD pipelines, and modern AI-native development
- Public and customer-facing presence: A track record of delivering strong presentations directly to customers and speaking at AI coding or developer conferences. You are comfortable being the face of the product in front of a room
- Sales enablement that lands: Experience building enablement programs that get sales teams excited to sell, not just trained on talking points
- Strategic storytelling: Ability to connect technical detail to business value for both developers and executive buyers
- Analyst relations: Experience engaging industry analysts and participating in major research evaluations (Gartner Magic Quadrant, Forrester Wave)
More about this role
Sonar is driving the future of agent-centric software development. As the leader in AI code verification and governance, 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.
