The Backup Team delivers essential infrastructure to help our customers in their hour of need - providing the ability to quickly restore a massive, distributed database to any point in time at the click of a button. The Backup Team’s mission is to make MongoDB backup more reliable, faster, and also cheaper.  This team is responsible for the Backup Agent (Go), the extensive server-side infrastructure (Java) which manages 100s of TB of data and processes billions of operations per day, and the user interface (Javascript)  that customers use to manage their backups.  Common project themes are performance, scaling, and ease of use.

  • Skilled at writing large-scale, distributed backend systems in a compiled language (Java, C#, Go, etc.)
  • Fond of chasing down tough problems in a distributed systems environment
  • Cool under pressure - has wrangled production crises, and secretly finds this a little fun
  • Experienced with Linux, and able to correlate application performance problems with underlying hardware limits
  • Comfortable working across the stack of a modern web application
  • Always striving to expand their knowledge
  • Curious, collaborative and intellectually honest 
Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with team members over best practices and core concepts
  • Hold yourself accountable to your actions, maintaining the balance between accomplishing goals with research & development
  • Own our core values and adhere to them in your work, and
  • Stay up to date with best practices in web engineering

  • Develop confidence in finding their way across the platform
  • Can take responsibility for the planning and execution of a major feature, representing Engineering when working with Product and Design
