We are 400+ employees from a diverse group of backgrounds that hail from more than 50 countries and speak 15 languages. But, we all share one thing in common: we’re passionate about accelerating software innovation. Our vision is to put Nexus products at the center of every open-source decision modern engineering organizations make.
We support our remote employee experience. While we have great office spaces in the Fulton, MD, Tyson’s Corner VA, London UK, and Sydney AUS, we’re very distributed and remote first (and always have been). We use several communication tools to connect across the company—and all remote employees have the opportunity to visit our offices and meet their teams face-to-face at team meetups. We also have an annual company meetup to get quality in-person time with the entire company at least once a year.

In 2021, Sonatype launched its Developer Relations function, which has helped us differentiate with hands-on keyboards across the globe. In line with rocketing growth, we’re looking to add a Graphic Designer to help our team share the amazing stuff available with a broader developer audience. You’ll have a chance to directly craft the design of our most important developer-facing assets. Your work will help developers engage with the power of open source to build secure applications faster and do so in style.
You will help further enhance and communicate our brand values and messages, and build developer excitement about our products through forward-thinking, and effective designs. Your design range must have the elasticity to stretch across web properties, digital ads, trade show presence, executive presentation design, video, and social — with the understanding of how these channels work together to support marketing campaigns. This role will report to Sonatype’s Head of Design.
