About the job
Join MongoDB's Observability team as a Senior Lead of Engineering, where you'll take charge of our comprehensive observability systems. This pivotal role involves overseeing operational metrics, visualizations, logs, traces, and alerts that are essential for monitoring the performance and health of our customers' MongoDB deployments. We seek a results-driven leader with high standards and a proven track record of managing large engineering teams in designing, building, and operating complex distributed systems at scale, ensuring strict service level objectives (SLOs) for security, durability, availability, and performance.
The tens of thousands of customers relying on our Observability stack for monitoring their database clusters and generating crucial alerts are counting on your expertise. As MongoDB Atlas and its supporting infrastructure expand rapidly, we must continuously innovate and scale our systems to meet the growing demand for high-cardinality observability data. For instance, our systems must adeptly handle tens of billions of metrics time series, while processing petabytes of logs, traces, and events.
We pride ourselves on a strong culture of inclusivity, diversity, and collaboration. If you aspire to be a deeply technical leader on a collaborative team that leverages low-level systems expertise to build the foundational infrastructure of a widely-used database, we invite you to join us!
We are looking for candidates located in Dublin, as we support a hybrid working model.
