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 anywhere—on the edge, on premises, or across cloud providers. With offices worldwide and over 175,000 developers joining MongoDB every month, it’s no wonder that leading organizations, like Samsung and Toyota, trust MongoDB to build next-generation, AI-powered applications.
Atlas Search is a multi-cloud service that allows users to execute complex full text and vector search queries using the MongoDB Query Language. Our users are free to focus on relevance and data retrieval instead of the machinery needed to search data at scale.
Join the team that is designing software systems to safely release search to hundreds of thousands of developers for both cloud and on-prem use cases. Our organization is responsible for the lifecycle of search including: data ingestion, index building, partitioning, performance, availability, and backup management. Our product is quickly gaining traction with customers and we are making core architectural improvements that you will contribute to.
This role can be based out of the MongoDB San Francisco office or remotely in the US.
You would get to:
- Build and design our integrated search platform, written in Java
- Build and design a system to safely release software to a very large fleet of customer deployments
- Build systems to improve quality and velocity for an org of 50+ software engineers
- Contribute to two leading open source platforms, MongoDB and Lucene
- Participate in product and architecture discussions
- Perform code reviews with peers and make recommendations on how to improve our code and software development processes
- Work with a collaborative team that prioritizes sound technical decision-making and building systems that our customers love and that we are proud of as engineers
- Collaborate with other teams including cloud services, database, enterprise tools, drivers and support to coordinate changes or contribute to their projects
Ideally you will have:
- Proficiency in modern programming languages and techniques
- Experience releasing and operating software at scale
- Experience managing and provisioning infrastructure as code (ideally with technologies such as Kubernetes, Docker, ArgoCD, and Bazel)
- Desire to impact and envision the technological future of a complex system
- Experience in developing distributed systems, cloud services and SaaS products
- Excellent verbal and written technical communication skills and enthusiasm for collaborating closely with colleagues
- A strong sense of ownership over your work, from initial design all the way through maintaining code in production
- Experience in designing and maintaining search platforms or distributed databases (preferred but not required)
- Experience in debugging and profiling multithreaded JVM applications and distributed applications (preferred but not required)
