Distributed Systems Engineer

mLab is the leading database-as-a-service platform for MongoDB, with over 700,000 databases in our fleet and customers ranging from startups to Lyft, Whole Foods, and Verizon.

Our engineers work on a range of interesting technical problems related to building, operating, and orchestrating cloud infrastructure at scale.

The Opportunity

We are looking for an experienced distributed systems engineer. You'll play a lead role in building kubernetes-based container orchestration tools for managing and deploying our infrastructure. The goal is to simplify and accelerate how our software is built, deployed, and operated on public clouds.

Our team believes strongly in open source, and we will ultimately provide many of these tools back to the community.

In addition to having the opportunity to grow quickly within our business, you'll have the the chance to evangelize our tech online and at events, contribute to open source projects, and anything else that can add to our community.

About You

You enjoy building complex software systems, love coding, and value a highly collaborative environment. You are passionate about cloud infrastructure and building platforms/tools for fellow developers.

We value software engineering generalists with sound fundamentals and broad interests. Golang and k8s expertise is a plus, as is exposure to container management on AWS, Azure, and/or GCP.
