About The Position

MongoDB is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join the Atlas Clusters Organization. This organization is responsible for building MongoDB Atlas, our database as a service offering and fastest growing product. Atlas allows users to deploy fault-tolerant, secure, globally distributed MongoDB clusters in just minutes. This includes developing software to interface with the three major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, and GCP) in order to bring security, durability, availability, and performance to all deployments of MongoDB. Atlas Clusters Security builds the security experience that Atlas customers depend on for mission-critical applications. Across the organization we own cluster networking, data encryption, database authentication, and related controls. This role sits on the Encryption & Compliance team. We own Encryption at Rest with customer-managed keys (Bring Your Own Key) across AWS, Azure, and GCP, including private networking to customer key management systems. We also own the security and compliance work that lets Atlas serve highly regulated markets, including government offerings and internal credential management. You will design and operate these systems in production, lead fleet-wide rollouts, and partner with customers when encryption or key-management issues hit their clusters. We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in San Francisco and would like a hybrid or in-office working model.
