Job description

MongoDB is bolstering its hiring, focusing on creating tools that guide customers in transitioning their applications from relational databases to MongoDB. As businesses evolve their application development frameworks, they're increasingly drawn to the versatility of the document model.

  • Provide thought leadership to the engineering team on using emerging technologies, frameworks and approaches to solve different problems
  • Collaborate closely with product managers and other engineers to understand business priorities and propose new solutions
  • Contribute and maintain the high quality of the codebase with tests that provide a high level of functional coverage and non-functional aspects with load testing, unit testing, integration testing, etc
  • Share your knowledge by giving brown bags, tech talks, and evangelising appropriate tech and engineering best practices
  • Define and improve business & product metrics to optimise the quality and cost of AI usage
Success Measures

Within the first three months, you will have:
