We are seeking a Staff engineer to design, build, and operate the internal and external Observability stack for the MongoDB platform. Tens of thousands of customers depend on our Observability stack to monitor their database clusters and to generate actionable alerts to safeguard critical workloads. The Collections team is a newly formed team within MongoDB's Observability & Adoption Org focused on making telemetry onboarding and collection significantly easier across MongoDB. We own key parts of the observability collection stack, including onboarding experience, telemetry collection agents across the data and control planes, and ingestion services for metrics, logs, and traces that support both internal and customer observability in MongoDB, driving insights, recommendations, and alerting. Our mission is to reduce friction for teams implementing and iterating on Observability while partnering closely with development teams to instrument their services using shared best practices, helping define the conventions our telemetry should follow, and building collection and ingestion systems that are stable, performant, secure, well-documented, and self-service. We also work closely with the Data Pipeline and Storage & Query teams to help ensure MongoDB has a stable and performant observability stack end to end. This is an opportunity to join a team shaping how observability works across MongoDB and to have outsized impact on both the developer experience and the reliability of the platform underneath it. As MongoDB Atlas and its supporting infrastructure continue to experience rapid growth, the demand for high-cardinality observability data for internal and external use cases means we need to continually innovate and scale our systems to the next level. For example, MongoDB Observability systems need to handle 10’s of billions of metrics time series, all whilst processing petabytes of logs, traces, and events. Our stack includes VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, Sp
