About MongoDB
MongoDB is built for change, empowering our customers and our people to innovate at the speed of the market. We have redefined the database for the AI era, enabling innovators to create, transform, and disrupt industries with software. MongoDB’s unified database platform, the most widely available, globally distributed database on the market, helps organizations modernize legacy workloads, embrace innovation, and unleash AI. Our cloud-native platform, MongoDB Atlas, is the only globally distributed, multi-cloud database and is available across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.
With offices worldwide and over 60,000 customers, including 75% of the Fortune 100 and AI-native startups, relying on MongoDB for their most important applications, we’re powering the next era of software.
Our compass at MongoDB is our Leadership Commitment, guiding how and why we make decisions, show up for each other, and win. It’s what makes us MongoDB.
MongoDB is committed to providing any necessary accommodations for individuals with disabilities within our application and interview process. To request an accommodation due to a disability, please inform your recruiter.
Key Responsibilities:
Define and drive the technical strategy for Ingress Security, in collaboration with stakeholders across Server, Atlas, SRE, and Product Security
Own the definition, planning, and execution of technical plans to deliver solutions to ambiguous, high-impact security and networking problems
Design, implement, and operate production-ready security services in Rust, with a focus on security, correctness, performance, and operational excellence
Collaborate with Engineering leadership and other Product & Technology teams on roadmaps to improve the security posture of MongoDB's ingress stack
Advise across the team and organization on engineering complexity, risk, and inter-project dependencies
Handle time-sensitive escalations and production incidents that require expert support from Ingress Security
Diagnose test failures, identify bugs, performance regressions, and other defects in existing code, and fix them
Interview candidates for software engineering positions, and work with Engineering leadership to cultivate the team's talent bench for long-term growth and success
Develop and maintain expertise on relevant cutting-edge research in systems security, network security, and memory-safe systems programming from industry and academia
Requirements:
10+ years of experience building production-quality systems software with a large user base, robust design structure, and rigorous code quality
Experience with large backend/compiled codebases and performance-sensitive software, preferably in Rust
Bonus points for experience working hands-on in security-sensitive or networking-adjacent domains
Strong systems fundamentals, including multi-threaded programming and performance profiling. Bonus points for:
Understanding of network protocols, TLS, and connection lifecycle management.
Familiarity with security concepts such as attack surface reduction, input validation, memory safety, and defense-in-depth architectures.
Excellent verbal and written technical communication skills for communicating to a wide variety of audiences ranging from junior engineers to executive stakeholder
Strong mentorship skills, and excitement about leveling up your peers and teammates through coaching, feedback, and enablement
Strong time management skills and the ability to realistically assess project complexity
B.Sc. in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience, with strong competencies in data structures, algorithms, and software design/architecture. Interest in the theory and practice of high-availability, security-critical systems
Passion for learning new things in the domains of computer science and software engineering
Success Measures
In the first month: Understand the high-level architecture of the Atlas Network Protection layer, set up your development environment, and resolve a few bugs
In three months: Contribute substantially to the Rust development of a current project or milestone, take on code review responsibilities, and participate in reviewing designs for new features
In six months: Independently lead the development of major a new feature and help mentor new engineers on the team
In twelve months: Drive the Planning, Design, and Execution of major improvements to our security, availability, performance, or operational capabilities
