Sonatype is the software supply chain security company. Sonatype is accelerating the future of agentic software development. As developers and AI agents build faster than ever, enterprises need a new level of control, visibility, and confidence at the moment software is assembled. Our Nexus One platform helps development, security, and platform teams govern the components, dependencies, models, and artifacts that power modern applications without slowing innovation down.

We are uniquely positioned to lead this next era. Sonatype operates both Maven Central, one of the world’s largest public open source registries, and Nexus Repository, a top-ranked enterprise repository used by thousands of organizations and over 70% of the Fortune 100. With over 1 trillion downloads annually across our ecosystem, we have unmatched visibility into how software is published, consumed, and propagated. That insight helps our customers make smarter decisions earlier, reduce rework, avoid security surprises, and ship AI-powered software with greater speed and confidence.

We are looking for people who want to build. People who are scrappy, entrepreneurial, hands-on, and hungry to make an impact. Sonatype is at an exciting inflection point, and we need teammates who can see the opportunity ahead, move with urgency, and help us shape the way the world builds secure software in the AI era.

We are seeking a Principal Sales Engineer with a deep Cloud Architect background to serve as our premier technical specialist for complex enterprise architectures. This is not a broad, generic sales engineering position; it is a highly specialized role designed to fill the critical gap left by Paul’s departure.

In this role, you will act as the ultimate authority on modern cloud infrastructure, advanced orchestration, and the intersection of Cloud AI with software supply chain security. You will partner with our largest, most sophisticated enterprise prospects to architect secure, scalable supply chains within modern AWS, IaC, and Kubernetes ecosystems, positioning Sonatype as an indispensable layer of their cloud-native strategy.
