Senior Engineering Manager, Storage Execution

MongoDB is hiring a Senior Engineering Manager to manage the largely New York-based Storage Execution team — a hands-on leadership role for someone obsessed with customer success and the responsibility of durably storing customer data. The team sits at the heart of MongoDB's Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) team, owning the core transactional read/write path on each node across both today's storage engine and a next-generation cloud-native storage architecture. Remote US (East Coast hours preferred). Salary: $151,000–$297,000 USD. Posted 2026-09-10.

• 8+ years building, debugging, and tuning distributed and/or highly concurrent systems software (databases, storage engines, filesystems, or similar). • 2+ years managing engineers directly, including hiring, performance management, and coaching across a range of levels. • Willing to work East Coast hours. • Strong proficiency in at least one compiled, statically-typed language such as C++, Rust, or Go; prior C++ and systems programming experience is a plus. • Deep understanding of durability, availability, and performance tradeoffs in distributed systems; experience with replication, consensus, storage engines, or transactional systems is highly desirable. • Demonstrated customer obsession: direct experience working with demanding customers on complex incidents and turning them into clear, outcome-oriented recommendations. • Proven ability to develop people: mentoring and promoting engineers, managing underperformance directly, and building high-engagement teams.
