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 TEAM
Platform Engineering is the department within SRE that is responsible for a
range of critical infrastructure and operational functions that support the
broader engineering organization. Among these are our multi-cloud-provider
Kubernetes infrastructure, deployment machinery, and observability and alerting
systems.
The Fabric team manages the infrastructure that enables secure communication
between systems and from the public internet. Their responsibilities encompass
network architecture, service mesh, and edge load balancing, ensuring customer
data remains safe in transit. The team plays a crucial role in developing and
maintaining the reliable and globally connected multi-cloud network that
supports MongoDB products.
We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Montreal, Toronto, or
Vancouver for our hybrid working model.
ROLE OVERVIEW
We are seeking a talented Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) with a strong
networking background to join the Fabric team. This role is pivotal in building
and maintaining the robust infrastructure necessary for secure and efficient
communication between our services. As an SRE on the Fabric team, you will
leverage your expertise in networking, distributed systems, and automation to
ensure our systems are resilient, scalable, and reliable.
THE IDEAL CANDIDATE SHOULD
- Have 10+ years of experience working on software and operating distributed
systems, with deep expertise in networking fundamentals and a good
understanding of how the internet works, e.g. TCP/IP (including IPv6), DNS,
TLS/mTLS, BGP, tunnels, overlays, and SDN principles
- Possess a customer-focused mindset, driving improvements that benefit
end-users
- Value efficiency in processes and operations, and display a strong preference
for automation over manual processes (“allergic to ops work”)
- Be intimately familiar with modern cloud-based infrastructure and the network
design primitives of at least one of AWS, Azure, or GCP, e.g. VPCs,
subnetting, routing, VPNs, peering, private link / private service connect,
and CDNs
- Have a strong knowledge of service mesh and load-balancing concepts, and be
eager to implement these in a multi-cloud environment
EXPECTATIONS
- Participate in the development of a reliable and resilient multi-cloud
globally-connected network that is crucial for MongoDB’s services
- Collaborate with service-owning teams to provide internal support, addressing
technical issues and offering guidance on best practices for
service-to-service connectivity
- Participate in a 24/7 on-call rotation to swiftly resolve issues related to
network architecture and service-to-service connectivity, ensuring minimal
disruption and high availability
