Job description
MongoDB’s mission is to empower innovators to create, transform, and disrupt industries by unleashing the power of software and data. We enable organizations of all sizes to easily build, scale, and run modern applications by helping them modernize legacy workloads, embrace innovation, and unleash AI. Our industry-leading developer data platform, MongoDB Atlas, is the only globally distributed, multi-cloud database and is available in more than 115 regions across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Atlas allows customers to build and run applications anywhere—on premises, or across cloud providers. With offices worldwide and over 175,000 new developers signing up to use MongoDB every month, it’s no wonder that leading organizations, like Samsung and Toyota, trust MongoDB to build next-generation, AI-powered applications.
Within MongoDB, the Replicated Storage Services organization is responsible for the beating heart of the database, ensuring data is replicated quickly and accurately, data is prepped for storage, transactions are planned and executed in isolation, and user requests are efficiently ordered and processed. We have multiple initiatives in flight to better leverage the latest hardware and to build the next-generation architecture. Our areas of concern are a good alignment for engineers interested in scaling and correctness of data storage and data movement.
Our team champions a strong culture of inclusivity, diversity, and collaboration. We are looking for engineers who can succeed in large, matrixed organizations by providing their unique viewpoint, persuading other engineers, and using data-driven approaches to set goals and standards. Leadership and soft skills are critical to the success of our teams.
This role can be based out of our NYC headquarters, office hub locations, or remotely in the United States and Canada.
