We work on cutting-edge features that power our time-series database extend analytical language capabilities and scale our high-growth Atlas Search and Vector Search products.

- Hands-on experience building industrial-strength software
- Solid computer science fundamentals with strong competencies in data structures algorithms and software design/architecture
- Experience with large code bases preferably in C++
- B.Sc. in Computer Science or similar field or equivalent practical experience
- Interest in the theory and practice of database query engines. Hands-on experience or M.Sc./Ph.D in the domain is a plus
- In three months you’ll have contributed to the development of a project slated for the next major version as well as fixed a few bugs in a minor version of our latest stable release series
- In six months you’ll have taken on code review responsibilities and are independently delivering complex functionality and squashing bugs independently
- In twelve months you’re contributing to the design of major new features and are helping to mentor new engineers on the team
