Senior Engineer - Enterprise Architecture

<p>We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Gurugram for our hybrid working model.</p> <h3>Team Description</h3> <p>MongoDB seeks an experienced Senior Software Engineer to join Enterprise Architecture on a focused team dedicated to AI experimentation. You'll partner with teams across the organization, including Internal Engineering, to explore, prototype, and validate emerging AI capabilities before they become formal roadmap priorities.</p> <h3>Our ideal candidate:</h3> <p>- Has 6+ years of professional software engineering experience</p> <p>- Deep experience with at least one modern programming language (Python, Typescript, Go, Rust, etc.)</p> <p>- Strong technical judgment and the ability to independently solve complex engineering problems</p> <p>- Excellent communication skills and comfort collaborating across teams and disciplines</p> <p>- Comfortable operating in ambiguity, scoping and running experiments when the right approach isn't known yet</p> <p>- Hands-on experience prototyping with LLMs or agentic systems (evals, fine-tuning, RAG, tool use, orchestration frameworks)</p> <p>- Has the ability to iterate fast, specially in the case where requirements are not clear</p> <p>- Keeps up with emerging AI tooling and models, not just what's already mainstream</p> <p>- Collaborative, detail-oriented, and passionate about building reliable, usable software</p> <h4>Bonus Round:</h4> <p>- Experience building and maintaining full-stack applications, from front-end UIs to backend API to data pipelines</p> <p>- Experience designing systems or services used by other engineers or teams</p> <p>- Knowledge of any of the following technologies: Tanstack Start, Next.js, FastAPI, React</p> <p>- Experience with model evaluation frameworks, vector databases, or agent orchestration tooling (e.g., LangGraph)</p> <p>- Familiarity with transformer architecture and model internals</p> <p>- Familiarity with containerized applications, Kubernetes, and ability to design CI/CD pipelines</p> <h3>Position Expectations:</h3> <p>- Design and run experiments that test emerging AI capabilities against real internal use cases, before they're formally prioritized. Condense the learnings of those experiments and document them so that the knowledge can be used across the org.</p> <p>- Build lightweight prototypes to validate or kill ideas quickly</p> <p>- Stay current on new AI tooling and models, and turn relevant developments into concrete internal proof points</p> <p>- Partner with product, platform, and internal engineering teams to hand off validated capabilities once they're ready to move from experiment to production</p> <p>- Maintain
