Senior UX Copywriter

The impact you will have  

Ask a friend or colleague developer about Sonar or SonarQube. They have heard from us and will likely use the products. This is how significant our impact on the tech industry is.

The UX craft has been gradually evolving at Sonar, and there is still much to do. In 2023, UX benchmarked a solid stage 3 of the NNG maturity model at Sonar, with a strong appetite to evolve from there in the next few years. We hold ourselves to high standards, and we are looking for invested, resilient, and humble professionals to join us for the journey ahead.

At this level, the expectations are high. You have a lot of autonomy and are expected to deliver with precision and irreprehensible quality. You will be leading on specific topics, adopting standards and proactively raising topics. You are expected to present solutions to problems while clearly managing expectations and setting an example through your actions. Thinking proactively across the team and outside when needed. Flexible over fixed, collaborative over withdrawn, and willing to go the extra mile. Influences the overall agenda and definition of the working framework.

You will work in a tech-heavy environment with engineers and product managers in a cross-functional trio setup. You embrace and navigate the complexity of software development, dealing with terminology and taxonomy likely beyond anything you have ever faced, and be expected to deliver product experiences to one of the most knowledgeable, pragmatic and engaged crafts in the digital space besides your software engineers.

As the first UX copywriter in UX for this level, you should have a good idea of what’s involved as autonomy and responsibility.

You will be part of a small group, alongside Design ops and Design system that supports UX craft at Sonar.
