Description
This new team will architect the platform foundation and infrastructure that enables a "build once, run anywhere" model, ensuring our AI-powered modernisation suite operates seamlessly regardless of a client's security or network constraints. We are looking for engineers to join this high-visibility initiative, where you will solve unique distributed systems puzzles and help shape the future of how global enterprises leverage GenAI.
We are looking for an experienced software engineer who thrives on solving infrastructure constraints and building enterprise facing platforms.
The ideal candidate is a hands-on technical leader who can architect complex distributed systems, mentor engineers, and collaborate with product teams to deliver a platform that minimizes deployment friction and meets customers’ compliance requirements.
This role can be based out of our Gurgaon office or Remotely in India.
The ideal candidate for this role will have
- 8+ years of software development and operations experience, with a focus on building platforms and distributable software infrastructure
- 2+ years of experience leading, coaching, and mentoring a team of engineers to achieve high-impact results
- Deep experience designing distributable applications that run in air-gapped or highly restricted network environments
- Strong proficiency in containerization and orchestration, with the ability to design systems where the host executes containerized applications under strict security monitoring
- Experience building Service Host architectures that provide shared routing, proxy layers, and API gateways for multiple underlying services
- Experience managing persistent storage solutions (blob/file storage) within distributed systems
- Understanding of security-first design, specifically regarding the execution of untrusted code, fine-grain access control, and rigorous input validation
- Experience designing auto-update mechanisms for software that cannot directly access the public internet
- Curiosity, a positive attitude, and a drive to continue learning
Position Expectations
- Provide technical leadership and mentorship to a team of engineers, fostering a culture of innovation, quality, and continuous improvement
- Drive the distributed infrastructure for the Application Modernisation Platform, ensuring it supports a self-service SaaS product model while operating within client-controlled environments
- Lead the design and implementation of a sophisticated orchestration layer that manages authentication, telemetry, and the lifecycle of modernization tools
- Architect a client-side application that manages developer workflows and communicates securely with hosted services
- Solve complex "Day 2" operations challenges, such as designing interfaces to solve DevOps challenges to manage users, secrets, and updates
- Collaborate with security and product teams to ensure the platform can execute code generation and LLM-based tasks securely, protecting both client data and MongoDB IP
- Act as a hands-on leader, guiding the team through technical challenges related to container security, local vs. hosted logic distribution, and cross-service data sharing
Success Measures
Within the first three months, you will have:
- Fully ramped up on our architecture, business domain, and the specific constraints of deploying software to large enterprise client environments
- Established yourself as the technical leader within the team, actively driving technical decisions
- Begun mentoring team members and collaborating with product counterparts to define the integrations between the platform and the tools it hosts
Within six months, you will have:
- Successfully led the team to deliver a prototype or initial release of the Deployment Platform that supports the core modernization toolset
- Designed and implemented a streamlined process for platform updates that works within client security constraints
- Established a precise rhythm of execution and served as a role model for a high-performing team
Within 12 months, you will have:
- Become recognized as the go-to technical expert for the deployment and operations domain at MongoDB
- Delivered a stable, production-ready platform that allows our Field Engineering teams to deploy tools without significant delays or approvals
- Played a crucial role in helping recruiting and growing the engineering team
