Job details

Staff Software Engineer, Atlas Clusters

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.

MongoDB is seeking a Staff Software Engineer to join the Atlas Clusters Team. The team is responsible for building MongoDB Atlas, our database as a service offering and fastest growing product. Atlas allows users to deploy fault-tolerant, secure, globally distributed MongoDB clusters in just minutes. 

The Atlas Clusters team builds the software that manages the Atlas cluster infrastructure hosted on the three major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP) and the software that manages the MongoDB database hosted on that infrastructure. We are constantly challenged to design features that ensure Atlas clusters are secure, available, durable, and performant while running large scale, critical workloads. 

What you’ll do

  • Build and design new features for MongoDB Atlas
  • Contribute to and lead complex technical projects
  • Work closely with product, design, and other engineering teams to design and build technical solutions that improve our product
  • Work with customers and support engineers to fix issues
  • Collaborate with team members to develop our codebase, best practices, and design principles
  • Learn from and mentor other team members

We’re looking for someone who

  • Has at least 10+ years of professional software development experience
  • Is skilled at writing large-scale, distributed backend systems in a compiled language (Java, C#, Go, etc.)
  • Is comfortable working across the stack of a modern web application (e.g. React, TypeScript, Enzyme)
  • Has experience with at least one major cloud provider technology (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Has led the launch of a new module and maintained it in production
  • Is eager to solve tough problems
  • Has excellent communication skills
  • Is curious, collaborative, and motivated

Success Measures

  • In 3 months, you'll have shipped code into production and collaborated with the team to solve tough problems
  • In 6 months, you'll have contributed to a large project
  • In 12 months, you'll have designed new features, led development work, and become a go-to expert on parts of the system
