- Customer Advocacy: Engaging with strategically significant customers at the senior level to surface cross-portfolio opportunities and inform the roadmap
- PM Excellence: Elevating the global standard of product management by mentoring Staff and Senior PMs and pioneering new data-driven playbooks across the organization
- Cross-Functional Alignment and Execution: Partnering with Directors and VPs to shape investment allocation and sequencing across the query, developer experiences, and core database portfolio
- Market and Engagement: Acting as a primary external face for the product line, representing MongoDB to the industry, developers, standards bodies, and at major conferences
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
To be successful in this role, you will need:
- 10+ years of professional experience, including significant leadership in product management for platform, infrastructure, or database domains
- Exceptional ability to communicate complex technical issues simply and convincingly to a wide range of audiences, including executive leadership
- Proven success in delivering complex cross-functional projects and the ability to write, defend, and execute on multi-year business cases
- B.Sc. in a technical discipline, with Computer Science preferred, or equivalent relevant experience
- Deep technical fluency in database query engines, query languages (SQL, MQL, etc.), developer experiences, distributed systems, and potentially AI platform tooling or LLM orchestration
WHY REMOTE
As a remote employee, you will be part of a global team that values flexibility and work-life balance. You will have the opportunity to work with a diverse group of professionals and contribute to the development of a cutting-edge data platform.
