- The Deployments team designs and maintains our continuous delivery infrastructure, ensuring reliable code deployment from development through production for all engineering teams
- This infrastructure is primarily composed of Argo Workflows and ArgoCD
- The team also provides tooling that enables clear system ownership and facilitates self-service onboarding for development teams
- Contribute to developing a world-class continuous deployment experience, enabling the rapid and reliable shipment of MongoDB products
- This includes, but is not limited to, contributing to open-source projects, or engineering software-based approaches like Kubernetes operators to streamline processes
- Own the onboarding flow other engineering teams follow when launching a new product or service

- Provide internal support for our deployment systems, including answering questions and addressing issues
- Participate in a 24/7 on-call rotation to resolve issues involving the deployment infrastructure
Our take
MongoDB is an open-source, cross-platform, document-oriented database system. It stores data as JSON-like documents and is written in C++, Go, JavaScript and Python.
Essentially, the company develops tools and blueprints to help businesses and organisations modernise their legacy applications, migrating them to the MongoDB database and the MongoDB Atlas cloud database. With this initiative, MongoDB is particularly taking aim at Oracle customers with ageing applications running on the Oracle relational database system.
Since its release, MongoDB has become one of the most popularly used NoSQL database systems due to its ease of use and efficiency. It is also the fastest-growing database ecosystem, and boasts hundreds of millions of downloads. Recently, the company announced a partnership with Patronus AI, an automated evaluation and security platform, through which it will bring automated LLM evaluation and testing capabilities to enterprise customers.
