<p>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.</p> <p>Join and lead MongoDB’s Server Programmability team, helping build the core of a distributed database! Server Programmability’s responsibilities include, but are not limited to, improving local server development experience and velocity, enhancing the programming model, and building low level reusable software components that can be leveraged by other teams working on the database.</p> <p>Our team currently consists of six engineers, located both in New York City and fully remote. We operate close to the bottom of the stack, and have a lot of influence over the performance and robustness of our open source database as well as the development efficiency of the engineering team overall. Recently, we’ve built tooling to help support better modularization of the server codebase, migrated server unit testing to a well supported open-source framework, and are currently evaluating the feasibility of introducing coroutines to the Server codebase.</p> <p>Our team champions a strong culture of inclusivity, diversity, and collaboration. If you want to work on a collaborative team that applies great engineering fundamentals to deliver the foundational components of a popular database, join us! Let’s change what’s possible for application developers, system architects, and database operators everywhere.</p> <p>Note: This role can be based out of our NYC office or remotely from anywhere in the United States.</p> <h3>You’re an ideal candidate if:</h3> <ul> <li>You have 2 or more years of experience managing a team of software engineers</li> <li>You have strong technical judgment that you use to effectively guide engineering decisions</li> <li>You have first-hand experience developing complex systems in C++ (like databases, distributed systems, or high-performance applications) and you use this context to understand the challenges your team faces</li> <li>You enjoy coaching, career development, and creating growth opportunities to help your team reach their full potential</li> <li>You care about building a diverse, inclusive environment where engineers can do their best work</li> <li>You put the customer first and dont hesitate to cross team boundaries in search of the right solution</li> </ul> <h3>As a Lead Engineer, Server Programmability you will:</h3> <ul> <li>Lead a team of 5-8 engineers, managing all aspects of people management including hiring, growth, compensation, and performance management</li> <li>Be directly responsible for the results your team delivers</li> <li>Own the definition and execution of the team’s 12-month roadmap</li> <li>Drive improvements to processes and tools especially those that allow us to confidently make changes to high risk parts of our codebase</li> <li>Use data to inform decisions and measure the impact of work the team ships</li> <li>Guide the team through making complex changes that balance performance against other requirements</li> <li>Handle (or lead the effort to handle) time-sensitive customer escalations</li> <li>Collaborate with stakeholders and engineering teams across the company to jointly work on large initiatives</li> <li>Work with product managers, program managers, and other teams to specify, prioritize and deliver new features that delight our users</li> <li>Ensure high quality and velocity in the design and implementation of new functionality in MongoDB server</li> </ul> <h3>Success Measures</h3> <p>In the first month:</p> <ul> <li>You have understood the high level architecture of the server and the teams responsibilities</li> <li>You are starting to develop relationships with key stakeholders</li> <li>You have gained familiarity with the required day-to-day processes to manage the team</li> </ul> <p>In three months:</p> <ul> <li>You have taken over management of your team, and are starting to build trust with your reports</li> <li>You have assumed responsibility for the day-to-day processes necessary to keep the lights on</li> <li>You are involved in reviewing the design for new features and helping the team navigate technical challenges</li> </ul> <p>In six months:</p> <ul> <li>You have established your role as a leader in the organization such that team members naturally go to you for guidance</li> <li>You are beginning to involve yourself in planning and roadmapping efforts</li> <li>You are leading the planning and execution of a new major feature</li> </ul> <p>In twelve months:</p> <ul> <li>You have performed a full annual cycle of performance and growth conversations with your team members</li> <li>You have contributed to the vision for the future of the Server Programmability team and helped develop a plan to achieve that vision</li> <li>You have increased the capability and velocity of your team in measurable ways</li> </ul> <p>To drive the personal growth and business impact of our employees, we’re committed to developing a supportive and enriching culture for everyone. <a href="https://www.mongodb.com/company/blog/culture/employee-benefits-that-make-a-difference-at-mongodb">From employee affinity groups, to fertility assistance and a generous parental leave policy</a>, we value our employees’ wellbeing and want to support them along every step of their professional and personal journeys.<a href="https://www.mongodb.com/blog/channel/culture"> Learn more about what it’s like to work at MongoDB</a>, and help us make an impact on the world!</p> <p>MongoDB is committed to providing any necessary accommodations for individuals with disabilities within our application and interview process.
