Senior Software Engineer

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.

We’re seeking a Senior Software Engineer for the Atlas Stream Processing team to develop and expand the new stream processing architecture that GA’d in the summer of 2024.

Atlas Stream Processing enables developers to continuously process streaming data alongside critical application data stored in their database. It builds upon MongoDB’s integrated developer data platform; enabling developers to stand up a stream processor and database with just a few API calls and lines of code, all fully managed on Atlas.

Our product is quickly gaining traction with customers and we are adding core features that you will contribute to and own. You will tackle complex distributed system problems with the goal of making our platform more scalable, reliable, and secure.

The position is open to our “in office”, “flexible”, or fully remote working models in North America.
