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 Lead Engineer to join the Atlas Clusters Automation 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 Automation team builds the software that manages the MongoDB database hosted on cloud provider infrastructure. The team focuses on building an agent that runs on and manages the processes running on every virtual machine in our fleet of Atlas clusters. We are constantly challenged to design features that ensure Atlas clusters are secure, available, durable, and performant while running large scale, critical workloads.
We will be forming a new Atlas Clusters Automation team in the Dublin area and the lead who fills this position will be pivotal in growing that team.
We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Dublin for our hybrid working model.
