What you do at MongoDB

In this role, you will work on complex opportunities where analysis of situations or data requires an in-depth evaluation of various factors. You will:

• Design and Architect: Own the end-to-end technical strategy for complex opportunities, designing scalable and performant applications, systems, and infrastructure leveraging MongoDB. Lead architecture reviews, evaluate trade-offs, and reduce technical risk across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments.
• Customer Advising and Value Articulation: Lead discovery with technical and business stakeholders to understand customer priorities, business drivers, and success measures. Guide customers on architecture, modernization, optimization, and AI patterns while clearly connecting MongoDB’s capabilities to measurable business value.
• Sales Partnership: Partner with Account Executives and Sales Leadership on account planning, opportunity prioritization, qualification, and pipeline-generation strategy. Own the technical aspects of the sales cycle—including discovery, demonstrations, proof of value, proposals, sizing, ROI/TCO analysis, presentations, and documentation—and constructively challenge assumptions when needed.
• Executive and Stakeholder Engagement: Build trusted relationships with architects, developers, operations leaders, and executives across multiple teams and workloads. Develop champions, navigate stakeholder dynamics, and maintain strategic relationships beyond individual sales opportunities.
• Demand Generation: Proactively generate demand within the sales territory through technical workshops, executive briefings, user groups, webinars, industry events, account-based marketing activities, and other self-driven initiatives.
• Customer Success: Define clear technical success criteria and help customers achieve adoption, reduce risk, and accelerate time-to-value. Foster strong customer relationships and support successful modernization, migration, and AI initiatives.
• Innovation, Enablement, and Improvement: Create reusable reference architectures, demos, playbooks, and technical content that scale the impact of the Solutions Architecture organization. Relay structured field feedback to Product and Engineering, mentor other Solutions Architects, and continuously improve MongoDB solutions and engagement practices.
• Personal Training and Development: Engage in ongoing training and professional development to stay at the forefront of MongoDB’s product suite, cloud-native architectures, AI and RAG patterns, data security, observability, and relevant industry trends.

What you will learn

• MongoDB Data Platform: Apply deep knowledge of MongoDB, Atlas, Atlas Search, Atlas Vector Search, Atlas Stream Processing, Atlas Data Lake, Charts, and Relational Migrator to customer use cases.
• Modern Application Architectures: Design cloud-native, distributed, highly available, secure, and observable systems across hyperscaler, on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments.
• AI and Application Modernization: Help customers modernize legacy systems and build AI-powered applications, including retrieval-augmented generation, vector search, real-time data, and event-driven architectures.
• Customer and Commercial Leadership: Develop executive communication, discovery, objection handling, value articulation, ROI/TCO analysis, and multi-threaded account strategy skills.
• Organizational Impact: Build reusable technical assets, share field insights, mentor peers, and contribute to the broader Solutions Architecture community.
