Description

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.

The Kubernetes teams develop software that makes using MongoDB in or from Kubernetes so frictionless that we are the de facto choice for a database in cloud-native applications. We are enabling database-as-a-service experiences for MongoDB users on Kubernetes. We are responsible for three Operators, Atlas, Enterprise, and Community (OSS), that allow our users to deploy fault-tolerant, globally distributed MongoDB clusters in minutes, in the cloud or on-premise.

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Hosted Operator team that builds tooling to automate the management of MongoDB resources in Kubernetes for Enterprise Advanced and Community users. As part of the team, you will propose, design, build and support product features. We are looking for passionate, intrinsically motivated software engineers who consistently work to grow their skills and want to take their careers to the next level. No prior experience with MongoDB technologies is required! During interviews, you will meet most of our team and have the opportunity to ask questions about working at MongoDB. We pride ourselves on our team's culture and on being an inclusive and collaborative group that Builds Together.

This role can be based out of our Dublin office or remotely in the EMEA region.

Our ideal candidate

  • Loves coding and building reliable software
  • Although this is not a DevOps role, you are an advocate of the DevOps culture who loves automation and diving into system internals
  • Enjoys collaboration and being part of a team. You will extensively collaborate with engineers, product managers, and other stakeholders
  • Be flexible! You'll be joining a small team, so you must be willing to take on a wide variety of responsibilities, learning as you go
  • You resonate well with our team’s core engineering values: Context, Predictability, Transparency, Focus and Craftsmanship

Responsibilities

  • Propose, design, build and support product features for our Kubernetes Operator
  • Work in an agile team environment with a close relationship with the customer
  • Incrementally ship elements of sophisticated projects
  • Apply our core values to your work
  • Assist our Operations & Support Engineers to troubleshoot operational issues with customers

What is in it for you

  • Generous compensation package (top-range salary, equity, comprehensive benefits)
  • You'll be joining a team that is diverse and highly collaborative, we value shipping fast and clean
  • Opportunities to learn on the job (time to upskill in new technologies)
  • High level of independence in your day to day work (not a strict 9-6 role, focus on results, not the appearance of work)

Requirements

  • Experience in a modern programming language. We mostly use Golang but we believe great engineers are much more than the tools they use
  • Experience working with Kubernetes and Docker. Great plus for candidates who are familiar with the CNCF landscape and can easily discuss the value and trade-offs of adopting these tools
  • Able to write technical documents and describe complex concepts in a concise way
  • Have worked with one or more of the major public cloud providers
  • Good understanding of computer networking and protocols
  • Experience working with and testing distributed systems
  • Experience working with systems in production
  • Strong command line experience
  • Experience working with Linux distributions

Nice to have

  • Kubernetes development experience for custom components and knowledge of Kubernetes internals
  • Kubernetes certifications
  • Experience working with Kubernetes Operator OR Kubernetes APIs

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
