Senior Software Engineer at MongoDB building code analysis and schema recommendation tools for application modernisation. Focus on scalable backend systems, APIs, and AI-powered features that help customers transition to MongoDB.
MongoDB is growing its team in Sydney, focusing on building intelligent tools that help customers understand and modernise their application codebases. The Application Modernisation Platform (AMP) guides customers through the entire journey of modernising their applications — from legacy relational platforms to modern, scalable systems built on MongoDB. The App Analysis & Modelling team owns the critical first stage of this journey: building the context that powers everything downstream. The team builds code analysis tools that construct code dependency graphs and generate deep insights for codebases, giving customers a clear understanding of their existing applications before transformation begins. The team also designs schema recommendation engines that analyse signals such as existing relational schemas and query patterns to inform data modelling decisions. Our work sits at the intersection of analysis, data modelling, and AI — helping developers make confident, data-driven decisions as they transition to MongoDB.
We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer who is passionate about building scalable backend systems and applications. As we expand our use of AI to power smarter analysis and recommendations, the ideal candidate will bring strong backend engineering fundamentals with the ability to contribute across the full stack. You will collaborate closely with product management and other engineering teams to design and deliver cutting-edge features that guide customers through complex modernisation journeys.
