We're seeking a Software Engineer to join our AI Interfaces team within AI Builder Experience (ABX), where you'll provide technical direction, shape architecture, and build the core products that make it seamless for developers and AI agents to work with MongoDB. Our team owns the surfaces through which humans and agents connect to MongoDB - including the MongoDB MCP Server, Agent Skills, our Intelligent Assistant Platform, and purpose-built agents. In short: if it's how an agent talks to MongoDB, we're building it. This is a new team charting new territory, and as a Software Engineer here, you'll be right at the frontier - building the technologies that let AI applications and agentic workflows work seamlessly with MongoDB at scale. You'll integrate with fast-moving, often unproven technologies, make pragmatic calls in the face of ambiguity, and own high-visibility projects end to end with minimal guidance. We're looking for product-minded engineers who thrive on autonomy and take pride in shipping. MongoDB engineering teams pride themselves on building high-quality software and living our cultural values every day - we value intellectual curiosity and honesty, and building together in an environment that prioritizes collaboration over competition. This position requires participation in a 24/7 on-call rotation to ensure business continuity and incident response capabilities. We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Gurugram for our hybrid working model. Position Expectations - Work closely with research, product management, product engineering, product design, peers, as well as other teams within the company to define the first version and future evolution of our AI interfaces - Design, build, and deliver well-tested core pieces of the platform - including the MongoDB MCP Server, Agent Skills, the Intelligent Assistant Platform, and purpose-built agents - in collaboration with other vested parties - Take ownership of ambiguous problems and drive them to completion independently, making sound decisions as requirements evolve - Contribute to shaping architecture, code reviews, and development practices, as well as developer experience, as the teams and product grow - Mentor fellow engineers and assume ownership and accountability of projects ## Qualifications - Strong background in building core components for scalable, high-availability web applications and services - 3+ years of experience building backend systems, primarily in Node.js and TypeScript, with an interest in working across a polyglot codebase - Track record of identifying problems, implementing solutions, and working on complex projects - A product-minded approach to engineering, with the judgment to make pragmatic tradeoffs and the comfort to operate amid ambiguity and rapidly evolving technologies - Enjoys collaboration and being part of a team; is approachable, curious, and intellectually honest - Excellent verbal and written technical communication skills, and a desire to collaborate with colleagues - Eager to learn, with a strong technical background Nice to Haves - Experience building MCP servers, agent skills, or plugins for agentic applications - Familiarity with the agentic AI tooling ecosystem (AI IDEs, CLIs, and assistants) and how developers integrate with it - Working knowledge of Java and/or Python - Experience with OAuth and authentication infrastructure for developer-facing services - Experience working with databases and knowledge of database internals - Bonus points for experience with containerization and orchestration platforms (e.g. Kubernetes) and AI frameworks and tools ## About MongoDB MongoDB is built for change, empowering our customers and our people to innovate at the speed of the market.
