Position description

Sonar is looking for a customer-centric Platform Product Manager to drive the foundational capabilities that make our products enterprise-ready, trusted by the world’s largest organizations and truly loved by developers around the world. You will be part of the Product Management team that drives the vision and roadmaps for our core platform infrastructure. We are currently looking for Product Managers with a deep technical background in enterprise SaaS capabilities.

This role sits at the intersection of core infrastructure and customer needs. As a Product Manager, you will shape our platform's core pillars to deliver an enterprise-grade, seamless experience our customers can trust. To achieve this perfect match, we need a passionate Product Manager who will research, clarify, prioritize the needs of external IT administrators, DevOps, and security teams, and translate those needs across our product line. You will become an expert user of our core platform, from very high-level user settings down to the technical aspects of our infrastructure.

You will join the Product Management team, which is composed of other passionate Product Managers eager to collaborate with you. You will also work closely with engaged Engineering teams to ensure that the proposed solutions meet the expected outcome and that we collectively deliver the best products to help teams adopt our software at scale to write better and more secure code.

By joining us, you will bring your deep knowledge of enterprise-grade platforms (such as data sovereignty, encryption, or global performance scaling) and your experience as a Product Manager to help us reach the next level and provide an awesome user experience to millions of developers.

What you will do

• Contribute to the different areas of the Platform vision and communicate about them, internally and externally.

• Research, clarify, and prioritize opportunities to build and maintain an effective roadmap, focused on customer trust and platform readiness.

• Interact directly with our users and customers on our product forum to support them, integrate their feedback, and identify opportunities.

• Develop a deep understanding of customer-facing platform needs (e.g., data residency, advanced access controls, and application performance) and how we can enable organizations to scale seamlessly..

• Work closely with other product managers to design cross-product foundational features.

• Align with the engineering and UX teams on the foundational system and usability problems to solve and support them during the end-to-end development stage of the solutions.

• Sync with the engineering teams to ensure that there is a good balance between innovation, consolidation, and stability.

• Attend conferences and give talks about platform scale if you like.

• Help the Product Management team grow in its organization, tools, and processes.

Experience and qualifications

• Passionate about enterprise software operability and the practices that lead to secure and highly available applications.

• Deep understanding of core platform pillars (e.g., data isolation, customer-managed encryption, design systems, API best-practices, or global performance optimization).

• Technical comprehension of self-hosted deployment, cloud-native environments, multi-region deployments, and data residency frameworks.

• Experience with the latest developments in AI assisted coding and how they impact platform scale.

• Experience in software product management, preferably managing platform products in an agile context.

• Highly autonomous and pragmatic, with an obsession for solving external customer problems.

• Open-minded and very positive can-do attitude.

• Comfortable in dealing with change, complexity, and uncertainty.

• Self-confident enough to challenge the status quo as well as to receive feedback.

• Leadership: you take initiative and demonstrate your ability to lead a subject from beginning to end.
