MongoDB is built for change, empowering our customers and our people to innovate at the speed of the market. We have redefined the data platform for the AI era, enabling builders to create, transform, and disrupt industries with software. MongoDB’s unified data platform, the most widely available, globally distributed data platform on the market, helps organizations modernize legacy workloads, embrace innovation, and unleash AI. Our cloud-native platform, MongoDB Atlas, is the only globally distributed, multi-cloud data platform and is available across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.

With offices worldwide and over 67,000 customers, including 75% of the Fortune 100 and AI-native startups, relying on MongoDB for their most important applications, we’re powering the next era of software.

• Partner with Server Query, Atlas Clusters, Release Quality and other engineers to embed algorithmic rigor and optimization into resource scaling, release-safety and monitoring systems across the fleet and inside query engine
• Deliver production-ready, thoroughly tested statistical and ML algorithms with well-identified limitations that deliver measurable business impact, not just an impressive-sounding methodology
• Own the full feedback loop: instrument model architecture with the metrics needed to track performance and create dashboards in collaboration with our stellar analytics team, collect feedback from users and metrics to diagnose issues or opportunities, and iterate accordingly
• Deliver thoughtful, kind code reviews to your peers and act as a core contributor to internal packages, tooling, and team processes that increase developer productivity

• 5+ years of hands-on machine learning model development, working directly with technical stakeholders
• Expertise and track of record working autonomously across the entire machine learning development lifecycle, including prototyping, simulation, tuning and iterating on products in deployment environments with and without dedicated engineering help
• Embraces an object-oriented approach to designing scalable and readable Python codebase, and has experience working with engineers on architecture design of machine learning systems
• Our codebase is primarily in Python and we use AI for developer productivity - but we expect all ICs to review, understand, and be able to redesign any code that ships regardless of whether a human or an AI wrote the first draft
• Takes ownership of team culture: models psychological safety, and - in whatever way suits their style, whether that's a quiet word or a vocal challenge - encourages others to speak up and calls out when the environment isn't living up to it
• Effective at communicating technical ML concepts to non-ML-experts audiences; e.g. able to translate efficacy measurements of ML models and products into tangible business impact metrics
• Master's degree or equivalent experience in a quantitative/computational discipline (computer science, applied mathematics, statistics, physics, operations research, etc.)

• Hybrid working model based in Dublin or Cork
• MongoDB is committed to providing any necessary accommodations for individuals with disabilities within our application and interview process.
• MongoDB is an equal opportunities employer.
