The Kubernetes teams make running MongoDB in and from Kubernetes so frictionless that it is the default database choice for cloud-native applications. Our operators let developers and platform teams provision, scale and operate MongoDB through Kubernetes-native APIs, in their own clusters or in MongoDB Atlas.
You will join the Kubernetes Capabilities squad. Our sister squad builds the shared platform layer of the MongoDB Controllers for Kubernetes; we build the capabilities on top of it that users actually adopt. That means bringing MongoDB features such as Search and Vector Search to Kubernetes, extending what our users can deploy and manage declaratively, and owning the Atlas Kubernetes Operator. Our work starts with a user problem and ends with a Kubernetes API that solves it.
In practice, we build a platform for other engineers. Our users are developers and platform teams who expect self-service, sensible defaults and APIs that behave predictably. If you have built an internal developer platform, a Kubernetes controller, or any system whose customers are other engineers, you will recognise the problems we work on.
No prior experience with MongoDB is required. You will meet most of the team during interviews, and we pride ourselves on being an inclusive, collaborative group that Builds Together. Our core engineering values are Context, Predictability, Transparency, Focus and Craftsmanship.
This role can be based in our Dublin office, Cork office or remotely within Ireland.
We are looking for a Software Engineer to join the Kubernetes Capabilities squad and help decide which MongoDB capabilities our users get on Kubernetes and how they work. You will own significant capabilities from design to production, make sound technical decisions under ambiguity, and raise the engineering bar of the team through design, review and mentorship.
What matters most is that you have built platforms, not only operated them. We value experience from any of these backgrounds:
MongoDB is built for change, empowering our customers and our people to innovate at the speed of the market.
