MongoDB 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 worldwide data management software market is massive – IDC forecasts it to be $137.6 billion by 2026! At MongoDB, we are transforming industries and empowering developers to build amazing apps that people use every day. We are the leading modern data platform and were the first database provider to IPO in over 20 years. Join our team and be at the forefront of innovation and creativity.

The Storage Layer Services Team is currently re-architecting the MongoDB Cloud Storage Layer. This is a relatively new team in MongoDB that sits at the heart of the next generation MongoDB Cloud Storage Architecture, and the team is working to build performant multi-tenant distributed storage services both to enhance our existing MongoDB cloud storage architecture and to power more of our customers' use cases more efficiently. We are looking for talented Senior Engineers to join the team and be founding members of the team, where you will play a crucial role in our multi-year roadmap.

Our team champions a strong culture of inclusivity, diversity, and collaboration. If you want to work on a collaborative team that applies distributed systems fundamentals to deliver core storage features of a popular database, join us! Let’s change what’s possible for application developers, system architects, and database operators.

We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Sydney for our hybrid working model.
