Hybrid (x2 days on site/ x3 Work from home)

If you are looking for an exciting opportunity to make a difference with great job satisfaction in a fast, dynamic, and thriving team, then join our Integration Platform team at Nationwide. We are at the heart of the society’s tech strategy and the focal point for our current and future Kubernetes platform.

As a MongoDB Database Administrator, you will work in project teams designing, building, and maintaining MongoDB databases and infrastructure to deliver strong business solutions. You will be involved from design and build to supporting both non-production and production environments. We foster a learning culture at NBS, encouraging ongoing development and skill enhancement in relevant technologies. You will also have the opportunity to join our communities to share ideas and collaborate with other professionals.

We are open to flexible working arrangements to support your performance.

At Nationwide, we offer hybrid working where possible. This approach helps build rewarding relationships, bringing colleagues together across the UK, while also supporting generous home working. We value in-office time for problem-solving, learning, and connection.

For this role, you will spend at least two days per week, or 40% of your working time if part-time, based at our London, Swindon, Northampton, or Bournemouth offices. Further details will be provided by your hiring manager. More about our hybrid approach can be found here.

If you are outside Swindon and London, you will need to attend these offices once a month for workshops, collaboration, and meetings.

High application volume may lead to early closing of the advert, so apply promptly.

What you’ll be doing

You will collaborate within delivery teams to build optimal solutions for Nationwide, using your technical leadership and SME knowledge to advise, build systems, and resolve problems within the MongoDB space. You will guide less experienced engineers to create fit-for-purpose designs and solutions.

You may work on-call occasionally.
