The role
Our Database Experience (DBX) Team
A great MongoDB experience starts with great tools.
The Database Experience team builds the libraries and tools that developers use day-to-day working with MongoDB. Our mission is to increase developer adoption, satisfaction and retention by providing a reliable, enjoyable interface for developers and other end-users.
Our senior engineers are typically specialists in a particular programming language, but are capable of contributing to projects in other languages as well.
For this role, we're looking for someone who will enjoy designing, writing, and supporting open source libraries for the Python ecosystem developers that use MongoDB. This is an opportunity to make a major impact at MongoDB as Python is one of the most popular runtimes for MongoDB users, and our driver has over 3 million daily pypi downloads.
You might be right for this role if you...
• Have substantial experience writing high-quality software in Python
• Have extensive knowledge in Python tools and frameworks, scientific python and web development frameworks
• Have practical experience with AI/ML frameworks and technologies in Python, including large language models and agentic tools are a plus
• Have an interest in learning and staying up-to-date with Python ecosystem trends and best practices and incorporating them into your work
• Can make pragmatic design decisions, balancing tradeoffs such as usability, maintainability and delivery time
• Want to, or already do, participate in open source software development and communities, both online via e.g. GitHub and optionally through conferences and speaking engagements
• Communicate well, internally and externally, both verbally and in writing
• Enjoy collaborating with teammates, and mentoring junior engineers and interns
• Are self-motivated, organized, and have strong time management skills
