Overview
MongoDB is growing and gaining adoption rapidly across the globe with the most demanding and innovative companies and development teams in enterprise software.
MongoDB is building a world-class team in India to create tooling that helps customers verify their application and data modernizations. As companies modernize their application and data ecosystems, ensuring functional equivalence and performance is paramount. The tools developed by the Modernization Testing and Verification team are critical in this journey, helping customers with automated testing, functional equivalence, and performance validation by creating frameworks for contract testing, database state-based testing, and leveraging LLMs for unit test generation.
We are looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer with a strong background in building software testkits/frameworks.
MongoDB is built for change, empowering our customers and our people to innovate at the speed of the market. We have redefined the database for the AI era, enabling innovators to create, transform, and disrupt industries with software. MongoDB's unified database platform—the most widely available, globally distributed database 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 database and is available across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.
With offices worldwide and nearly 60,000 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.
