Software Engineer 3, Networking & Observability

Join the MongoDB Networking & Observability team and help build the core of a distributed database! Our team focuses on creating and enhancing components which facilitate communication between distributed processes and make these processes, and their communication, easily observable. Networking Observability’s responsibilities include improving MongoDB networking, improving the efficiency of resource utilization, and building low-overhead observability features. Our team includes engineers located in New York City and fully remote engineers. We operate close to the bottom of the stack, and have a lot of influence over the availability, performance, and robustness of our open source database. Recently, we’ve improved connection handling, explored new networking architectures, and integrated OpenTelemetry to make issues easier to diagnose and connect MongoDB to modern observability tools. We are planning to further improve our networking’s stack performance, availability and scalability as well as further enhance our observability stack using open observability frameworks. Are you excited to help the MongoDB engineering team build a better database? We are! Join us today, and we can build a faster, more reliable, exceptionally observable, database system together. This role can be based out of our New York City office or remotely within the United States and Canada.
