Who is Sonar? 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,, Goldman Sachs, AstraZeneca, and Ford Motor Company count on us to provide independent, explaina

Plan, write, and maintain high-quality documentation for developer audiences: getting-started guides, how-tos, conceptual explanations, and release notes
Work in a docs-as-code workflow — authoring in Markdown, submitting PRs, reviewing diffs, and running docs through the same CI pipeline as code
Use AI tools to accelerate research, drafting, and content auditing — and take full ownership of the quality and accuracy of the output
Collaborate with engineers to document new features accurately and on time, often working from specs, early builds, and code review comments
Verify, and maintain code samples (in languages relevant to our integrations) to ensure they compile, run, and stay current with product changes
Audit and improve existing documentation for accuracy, completeness, structure, and voice
Help evolve the team's style guide, information architecture, and content standards
Mentor other writers and serve as a technical resource for docs-adjacent questions from engineering

Proven track record of creating technical content for developer audiences (provide portfolio/examples)
Fluency in a docs-as-code workflow: Markdown or similar markup, Git (branching, PRs, rebasing), and working inside a repo as a first-class collaborator
Strong software development or DevOps background with proficiency in some programming languages
Fluency in a docs-as-code workflow: Markdown or similar markup, Git (branching, PRs, rebasing), and working inside a repo as a first-class collaborator
Comfort using AI tools (Claude, Codex, Copilot, etc.) to augment your workflow, with a clear-eyed approach to validating AI-generated content
Experience working cross-functionally with engineering and product teams to ship documentation alongside features
Strong instinct for information architecture: you know the difference between a tutorial, a how-to, a reference, and a concept and when to use them
Solid understanding of DevOps practices including CI/CD pipelines
Experience writing documentation for the agentic SDLC
Experience with code quality, security, and testing concepts including SAST, DAST, code coverage, and vulnerability management
Demonstrated ability to read, write, and debug code — whether through writing verified code samples in technical articles, a background as a developer or software engineer, or equivalent hands-on experience
