MongoDB
About this role
MongoDB is building a new platform to make it easier for customers to deploy AI applications, and this role is on the team building it in Gurugram. That is the appealing part: a new product rather than maintenance of an established one, with room to shape the architecture and the development practices as the team grows. The work is core distributed systems, building the pieces that carry performance, scalability and reliability for the new service, in Python, Go and Java. MongoDB asks for 5+ years building distributed systems or foundational cloud services at scale, plus a track record of debugging and performance tuning in large, long lived codebases. Kubernetes and AI framework experience count as bonuses. It is hybrid in Gurugram.
Who this is for
What the posting asks for:
- 5+ years of experience building distributed systems or foundational cloud services at scale, with an interest in working with Python, Go and Java.
- A strong background building core components for high scale compute and data distributed systems.
- Proven success designing, writing, testing, debugging and performance tuning, with a strong grip on computer science fundamentals, in large and long lived codebases.
- A track record of identifying problems, implementing solutions and delivering complex projects in distributed systems or databases.
- Good verbal and written technical communication and a desire to collaborate.
- Eagerness to learn.
Counts as a bonus:
- Containerisation and orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes.
- AI frameworks and tools.
The day to day: working with research, product management, product engineering, product design and other teams to define the first version and future evolution of the service; designing, building and delivering well tested core pieces of the platform; contributing to architecture, code reviews, development practices and developer experience as the team and product grow; and mentoring other engineers while owning projects outright.
Experience: the posting states 5+ years.
Location: Gurugram, hybrid. MongoDB states it is looking to speak to candidates based in Gurugram for this working model.
Company context: MongoDB has over 60,000 customers including 75 percent of the Fortune 100, and MongoDB Atlas runs across AWS, Google Cloud and Azure.
Who should apply: a backend or distributed systems engineer with five or more years who wants greenfield work on a real product inside a large company, which is a rarer combination than it sounds. If you want the operational side of the same platform instead, MongoDB's Senior Site Reliability Engineer role is in today's list and sits on the same team.
