About the role

MongoDB is hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer in Gurugram (hybrid) to build MongoDB capabilities directly inside independent software vendors' product codebases.

MongoDB is a widely used database platform, and its Industry Solutions Team helps customers and partners modernise applications and data platforms. This Forward Deployed Engineer role sits in the team's ISV practice, working with independent software vendors.

It is a hands-on application engineering role: you work inside a partner's own codebase and release process to deliver integrations, migrations and new product capabilities, often for products originally built on relational databases. The posting calls for regular travel and on-site time with partners, and is open to candidates based in Gurugram under a hybrid model.

This listing was verified on the employer's own careers page on 6 October 2026. Please read the full posting and apply directly on the employer's site; Cloud Soft Solutions does not handle applications for this role.

Responsibilities

Embed with ISV engineering teams and adapt to their codebase, practices, release cycle and product architecture
Design and build MongoDB-backed features, including data models, indexes, queries, persistence layers and migration tooling
Implement coexistence and migration approaches such as synchronization, change data capture, dual writes, validation and controlled cutover
Validate solutions for performance, resilience, security and operational readiness across Atlas, Enterprise Advanced, Kubernetes private clouds and on-prem setups
Support partner engineers through pairing, code reviews and documentation
Record reusable patterns, tooling and product gaps to speed up later engagements

5+ years of hands‑on backend engineering on production applications
Strong application-side MongoDB knowledge: data modeling, aggregation, indexing, transactions and change streams
Solid application-level experience with a major relational database
Experience introducing a new database into a large codebase and migrating production workloads using dual‑write or CDC patterns
Strong coding skills in two or more of Java, C#/.NET, Node.js/TypeScript, Python and Go
SaaS product engineering experience, including multi-tenancy, versioned schemas and backward compatibility
Willingness to spend significant time on‑site with partners and travel within the region

Why this role in 2026

This FDE role is about real production code in other companies' products, especially relational-to-MongoDB migrations and coexistence. It builds deep database and migration engineering skills that apply well beyond a single vendor.

Application tips

Feature a production database migration you worked on, including how you handled synchronization and cutover
Be specific about MongoDB internals you have used, such as change streams, transactions or aggregation pipelines
Show that you can work in two or more of the listed languages
Mention SaaS experience with multi-tenancy or schema versioning
Confirm you are based in Gurugram and comfortable with partner travel

Prepare to design a migration from a relational database to MongoDB for a live SaaS product, covering dual writes or CDC, consistency, validation and rollback. Revise MongoDB data modeling and indexing for specific access patterns, and be ready to explain trade‑offs to partner engineers. General FDE preparation: the FDE engineer skills guide .

The posting notes you will gain experience modernising partner products across industries and building reusable patterns. That path leads naturally towards the Forward Deployed Architect role in the same team, as well as senior backend and data architecture positions.

Company & benefits

Employee affinity groups, fertility assistance and a parental leave policy, as mentioned in MongoDB's posting.
