We enable organizations of all sizes to easily build, scale, and run modern applications by helping them modernize legacy workloads, embrace innovation, and unleash AI. Our industry-leading developer data platform, MongoDB Atlas, is the only globally distributed, multi-cloud database and is available in more than 115 regions across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Atlas allows customers to build and run applications anywhere—on premises, or across cloud providers.

As a Sr. Staff Technical Program Manager, you will partner with key Engineering, Product, Product Design, Marketing, and Analytics stakeholders to conduct data-driven experiments and deliver features for MongoDB. As a seasoned program leader, you will be responsible for one of our most mission-critical programs this fiscal year, and own executive-level communication related to the program.

• Able to leverage their experience in program delivery to influence improvements to our tools, operations, and architecture
• Trained in working with project tracking software (e.g. Jira, Rally, MS Project)
• Familiar with MongoDB or a comparable technology

• Recognize patterns in a sea of information and take action accordingly
• Design, maintain, and improve the processes and tools that power program delivery
• Build strategic partnerships with Product and Engineering stakeholders
