Get your ideas to market faster with a flexible, AI-ready database. MongoDB makes working with data easy. Backed by NEA, Sequoia and USV.
About the role
Join Cluster Scalability, one of MongoDB's Online Transaction Processing teams, and help build the core infrastructure that makes MongoDB a world-class distributed database. The team builds the infrastructure and tools that let customers scale their workloads past what a single node can handle. We take pride in building clean abstractions over hard distributed systems problems, so users can focus on their data instead of worrying about where it lives or how it's accessed.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years of experience building distributed systems
- Experience with building production-level code with a large user base, robust design structure and rigorous code quality, written in C++
- Degree in Computer Science or similar field, or equivalent practical experience, with strong competencies in data structures, algorithms, and software design/architecture
- Passion for the theory and practice of system design for large-scale distributed systems, as well as hands-on or academic experience in the domain
- Understands modern computer architecture and internals to the degree that they can reason about how specific design choices plays out in a system like MongoDB
- Has demonstrated industry success or academic research in areas such as:

We take pride in building clean abstractions over hard distributed systems problems, so users can focus on their data instead of worrying about where it lives or how it's accessed. Our work has a big impact: it solves the hardest data challenges faced by MongoDB's largest customers.
As a Senior Software Engineer on Cluster Scalability, you'll work on data partitioning, one of the hardest and most impactful problem areas at MongoDB today. You'll collaboratively design and build the distributed machinery that turns independent query-processing and storage nodes into a single, unified database system. Your team’s work will be to build the data-movement and dynamic-scaling features that run on top of it. Current work includes seamless horizontal scaling with minimal tradeoffs, better cluster elasticity and smarter workload execution. You'll solve complex performance problems and design...
