What Mongodb is looking for in applicants

The database market is massive (the IDC estimates it to be $119B+ by 2025!) and MongoDB is at the head of its disruption. The MongoDB community is transforming industries and empowering developers to build amazing apps that people use every day. We are the leading modern data platform and the first database provider to IPO in over 20 years. Join our team and be at the forefront of innovation and creativity.

MongoDB Atlas App Services is a backend-as-a-service that lets you directly and securely access your MongoDB data anywhere, synchronize that data offline/online with Atlas Device Sync, interact with 3rd party services via serverless Functions, react to changes in your database with Triggers, and host your website with Static Hosting.

The Atlas Device Sync team builds and maintains a distributed cloud service that allows mobile apps to synchronize data with other devices as well as MongoDB Atlas, handling hundreds of thousands of operations a second. With Atlas Device Sync, mobile developers can create apps that have low-latency concurrent access to shared data, are available offline, resolve conflicts across clients, and provide a seamless cross-platform user experience across iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter, and more.
