Come join and lead the Server Ingress Security team, where we are rearchitecting MongoDB Server’s ingress networking to make
MongoDB clusters even more secure. This new team is building the Atlas Network Protection layer, a set of performant,
security-critical services that harden MongoDB's pre-authentication attack surface and provides the ability to respond rapidly to
emergent threats. We are looking for a talented Lead Engineer to join the team and be founding members, where you will play a
crucial role in our multi-year roadmap.
Our team champions a strong culture of inclusivity, diversity, and collaboration, and lives MongoDB cultural values every day – we
value intellectual curiosity and honesty, and building together in an environment that prioritizes collaboration over competition.
If you want to lead a fast-growing team that applies security and systems engineering fundamentals to protect a popular database
at scale, join us!
We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Dublin or Cork for our hybrid working model.
