MongoDB’s Storage Layer Services (SLS) team is re-architecting the MongoDB cloud storage layer and sits at the heart of our next-generation cloud storage architecture. This relatively new team is building performant, multi-tenant distributed storage services that both enhance today’s Atlas storage stack and enable more customer workloads to run more efficiently.
As the Site Reliability Engineering Manager for SLS, you will partner with the teams building these storage services to define SLOs, shape capacity plans, and ensure the reliability, durability, and operational safety of the storage layer that underpins Atlas. You’ll help grow and lead a small, senior team of SREs as founding members of this organization, playing a crucial role in executing on a multi-year roadmap for MongoDB’s cloud storage architecture.
We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in New York City for our hybrid working model.
Responsibilities
Build and lead a team of 6-8 engineers, fostering a positive culture, handling career growth and performance conversations, and proactively removing blockers
Define and drive a clear technical vision and comprehensive roadmap for our multi-tenant distributed storage systems, balancing long-term strategic infrastructure goals with immediate engineering needs
Contribute through hands-on technical work, such as leading architectural design reviews, reviewing PRs, and stepping in to guide the team through complex operational challenges
Act as the primary liaison for the Storage Layer Services SRE team, collaborating closely with other engineering leaders to ensure platform alignment and manage stakeholder expectations
You may be a good fit if you
Have 10+ years of experience working on software and operating distributed systems, with 2+ years managing engineering teams
Possess a customer-focused mindset, treating internal developers as your primary users
Value efficiency in processes and operations, and have a track record of optimizing team workflows
Prefer automation over manual processes, fostering a culture of building software solutions to eliminate toil
Have deep technical familiarity with Kubernetes ecosystems, containerization technologies, and modern IaC tooling (e.g., Terraform, Crossplane, or Operators) so you can effectively guide the team's technical decisions
Have operated or supported stateful storage or database systems at scale and are comfortable with durability, consistency and recovery trade-offs
