INTRODUCTION
MongoDB's Storage Layer Services (SLS) team is re-architecting the MongoDB cloud storage layer and sits at the heart of our next-generation cloud storage architecture. This relatively new team is building performant, multi-tenant distributed storage services that both enhance today's Atlas storage stack and enable more customer workloads to run more efficiently.
As the Lead Site Reliability Engineer for SLS, you will partner with the teams building these storage services to define SLOs, shape capacity plans, and ensure the reliability, durability, and operational safety of the storage layer that underpins Atlas. You'll help grow and lead a small, senior team of SREs as founding members of this organization, playing a crucial role in executing on a multi-year roadmap for MongoDB's cloud storage architecture.
We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in New York City for our hybrid working model.
Responsibilities
- Build and lead a team of 6-8 engineers, fostering a positive culture, handling career growth and performance conversations, and proactively removing blockers
- Define and drive a clear technical vision and comprehensive roadmap for our multi-tenant distributed storage systems, balancing long-term strategic infrastructure goals with immediate engineering needs
- Contribute through hands-on technical work, such as leading architectural design reviews, reviewing PRs, and stepping in to guide the team through complex operational challenges
- Act as the primary liaison for the Storage Layer Services SRE team, collaborating closely with other engineering leaders to ensure platform alignment and manage stakeholder expectations
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
You may be a good fit if you:
- Have 10+ years of experience working on software and operating distributed systems, with 2+ years managing engineering teams
- Possess a customer-focused mindset, treating internal developers as your primary users
- Value efficiency in processes and operations, and have a track record of optimizing team workflows
- Prefer automation over manual processes, fostering a culture of building software solutions to eliminate toil
- Have deep technical familiarity with Kubernetes ecosystems, containerization technologies, and modern IaC tooling (e.g., Terraform, Crossplane, or Operators) so you can effectively guide the team's technical decisions
- Have operated or supported stateful storage or database systems at scale and are comfortable with durability, consistency and recovery trade-offs
- Excel at translating complex business and engineering requirements into actionable, phased technical roadmaps
- Have a high level of empathy, responsibility, ownership, and accountability
- Excellent verbal and written technical communication skills
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Strong candidates may also have experience with:
- Leading major architectural shifts, such as moving from legacy storage stacks to new multi-tenant storage architectures, including planning and executing large-scale data and workload migrations with tight availability and durability requirements
- Managing and scaling infrastructure across multi-cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
- Designing secure, multi-tenant runtime environments at scale

Align Your Skills With MongoDB's Stack
MongoDB runs heavily on Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS, and Atlas infrastructure. Tailor your resume and portfolio to show hands-on experience with these tools before applying, since DevOps interviews there test infrastructure-as-code depth, not just familiarity.
Target Roles Across Multiple Office Locations
MongoDB posts DevOps and platform engineering roles across New York, Austin, and remote-eligible positions. Applying to multiple locations increases your chances, since H-1B and E-3 petitions are tied to a specific worksite listed on the Labor Condition Application filed with DOL.
Clarify Sponsorship Eligibility Before Final Rounds
Bring up your visa type directly with the recruiter after an initial screen, not in the final loop. MongoDB's recruiting team handles sponsorship decisions early, and confirming fit before technical rounds saves both sides time on cases like F-1 OPT or TN.
Time Your Application Around H-1B Cap Deadlines
If you need H-1B cap sponsorship, USCIS opens registration in March for an October 1 start. MongoDB typically files petitions for confirmed offers ahead of that window, so aim to have an offer in hand by late February to meet internal deadlines.
Use Migrate Mate to Find Active DevOps Openings
MongoDB's DevOps listings change frequently and not all roles appear on their careers page simultaneously. Use Migrate Mate to filter for MongoDB DevOps jobs that confirm visa sponsorship, so you're applying to active roles where sponsorship is already confirmed.
Prepare Your Credentials for PERM Early
If MongoDB sponsors you toward an EB-2 or EB-3 Green Card, PERM labor certification requires DOL to verify your employer met recruitment requirements. Gather your original degree certificates, transcripts, and employment records well before the process starts, since delays in documentation can stall your priority date.

Find DevOps at MongoDB JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does MongoDB sponsor H-1B visas for DevOps roles?
Yes, MongoDB sponsors H-1B visas for DevOps engineers. The company participates in the annual USCIS H-1B cap registration process and files petitions for qualifying roles. If you need cap-subject H-1B sponsorship, your offer timeline needs to align with the March registration window to secure an October 1 start date.
How do I apply for DevOps jobs at MongoDB?
Apply directly through MongoDB's careers portal, or browse verified openings on Migrate Mate, which filters for roles with confirmed visa sponsorship. DevOps roles at MongoDB typically go through a recruiter screen, a technical phone interview, and a multi-stage loop covering infrastructure design, systems troubleshooting, and platform tooling. Mentioning your visa status early in the recruiter screen keeps the process efficient.
Which visa types does MongoDB commonly use for DevOps hires?
MongoDB sponsors H-1B, E-3, TN, and F-1 OPT and CPT for DevOps roles, and supports EB-2 and EB-3 Green Card pathways for longer-term employees. E-3 is available exclusively to Australian citizens. TN applies to Canadian and Mexican nationals in qualifying engineering occupations. The right visa depends on your citizenship and current status.
What qualifications does MongoDB expect for sponsored DevOps roles?
Most DevOps roles at MongoDB require a bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field, which also satisfies the specialty occupation standard required for H-1B and E-3 petitions. Practical experience with cloud platforms, container orchestration tools like Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines carries significant weight in hiring decisions alongside academic credentials.
How long does the visa sponsorship process take at MongoDB?
Timelines vary by visa type. H-1B standard processing runs three to five months after USCIS receipt, with premium processing available for a faster decision. E-3 consular appointments in Australia currently range from two to eight weeks depending on location. TN can be obtained at the border for Canadian citizens. PERM-based Green Card sponsorship is a multi-year process depending on your country of birth and priority date.
