Site Reliability Engineering, Fabric (Mid, Senior, or Staff)

MongoDB is a unified, globally distributed data platform that helps organizations modernize workloads, embrace innovation, and build AI-enabled applications. The Site Reliability Engineer will join the Fabric team to build and maintain resilient infrastructure for secure service communication, applying expertise in networking, distributed systems, automation, service mesh, and multi-cloud environments.

Responsibilities:

• Participate in the development of a reliable and resilient multi-cloud globally-connected network that is crucial for MongoDB’s services
• Collaborate with service-owning teams to provide internal support, addressing technical issues and offering guidance on best practices for service-to-service connectivity
• Participate in a 24/7 on-call rotation to swiftly resolve issues related to network architecture and service-to-service connectivity, ensuring minimal disruption and high availability

Requirements:

• Have 10+ years of experience working on software and operating distributed systems, with deep expertise in networking fundamentals and a good understanding of how the internet works, e.g. TCP/IP (including IPv6), DNS, TLS/mTLS, BGP, tunnels, overlays, and SDN principles
• Possess a customer-focused mindset, driving improvements that benefit end-users
• Value efficiency in processes and operations, and display a strong preference for automation over manual processes (“allergic to ops work”)
• Be intimately familiar with modern cloud-based infrastructure and the network design primitives of at least one of AWS, Azure, or GCP, e.g. VPCs, subnetting, routing, VPNs, peering, private link / private service connect, and CDNs
• Have a strong knowledge of service mesh and load-balancing concepts, and be eager to implement these in a multi-cloud environment
