Provide advanced technical support for large MongoDB customers across the full MongoDB ecosystem (server, drivers, Atlas, Cloud Manager). Troubleshoot performance, architecture, recovery, security and storage issues end-to-end, develop support tools, mentor new hires, and liaise with product and engineering teams. Work EST shifts with a weekend shift expectation after ramp and participate in occasional off-hours coverage or regional events.

Lead and grow a team of autonomy engineers to stand up autonomy on novel platforms (space, maritime, rotorcraft), own delivery from design through fielding, write and integrate latency-sensitive autonomy code, coordinate with platform and cross-functional teams, support live tests and deployments, and evolve R&D efforts into longer-term programs.

Lead and grow a small autonomy engineering team to design, integrate, validate, and field autonomy software for launched effects. Own delivery, hiring, mentoring, technical direction, ICDs, pre-deployment validation, live test support, hardware/software debugging, and cross-team collaboration for multi-agent and air-gapped fleet deployments.

Lead and grow a 5–10 engineer autonomy integration team for V-BAT/X-BAT, owning delivery, hiring, mentoring, and technical health. Drive integration of autonomy software (mission behaviors, VTOL transitions, multi-agent coordination), collaborate tightly with aircraft, perception, and capability teams, run ICDs and field tests, and support live exercises and deployments (20–30% travel).

Own and maintain native C++ build systems for autonomous aircraft. Improve developer velocity by reducing build/test cycle time, integrate CI with HIL and simulation, implement monitoring and alerts, troubleshoot build/test failures, and collaborate with engineers to design and deploy DevEx/DevOps solutions.

Design, develop, and field high-performance Ground Control Station and C2 software using C++/Qt/QML and QGroundControl. Lead architecture and technical direction, mentor engineers, define APIs/ICDs, debug integration/latency issues, support field tests, implement post-mission debrief tools, and ensure interoperability with C2 standards.

Design, implement, and deploy safety-critical navigation and state estimation systems for aerospace platforms. Develop EKF and GNSS/INS integration, multi-sensor fusion for GPS-denied environments, FDIR and integrity monitoring, and V&V test plans. Support certification, requirements allocation, performance analysis, flight test evaluation, and provide technical leadership and mentoring.

Lead design and prototyping of generative AI experiences for autonomy development; drive UX for Hivemind products; perform user research, collaborate with CTO and product leads, and deliver reference implementations and integrations across full-stack web and edge systems.

Lead systems engineering for Hivemind-based autonomy products: define and manage requirements, develop system architectures and trade studies, coordinate hardware/software interfaces, support integration/verification/validation and testing, and identify and mitigate technical risks across the system lifecycle.

Develop, integrate, and test high-quality embedded C/C++ avionics software for X-BAT UAVs, interfacing with sensors, firmware, autonomy systems, and GCS; design CI/HIL test systems, produce documentation, and collaborate across cross-functional teams.

Design and implement full‑stack, low‑latency web-based Ground Control Station and C2 systems (map-centric UIs, real-time telemetry, video streaming), lead architecture and APIs, mentor engineers, support field tests and mission deployments, and ensure interoperability with C2 standards.

Design and implement secure, scalable backend services for voice agents, integrate AI models and telephony, improve inference, debug concurrent systems, and collaborate with Product to deliver features end-to-end.

Design and implement secure, scalable backend services for speech inference and audio processing. Optimize networking, transcoding, latency, memory, and distributed compute orchestration. Measure and improve system performance, debug complex networking/scheduling/HPC issues, customize services for customers, and partner with Product to deliver features end-to-end.

Twelve-week virtual fellowship teaching Palantir Foundry and AIP through live sessions and projects. Expect 5–10 hours/week, hands-on training, mentorship, certification opportunity, and potential interviews for employment. Program is unpaid.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll develop and build tools for creative projects while leading feature development and collaborating with teammates.

Develop ML/RL models and infrastructure for AV simulations, optimize training loops, and support project timelines in autonomous vehicle tech.

Lead development of guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) systems from concept to flight-ready software. Design and simulate algorithms, translate requirements into embedded implementations, support HIL and flight test, analyze test data, coordinate across vehicle design, avionics, structures and testing, and document results while mitigating technical risk.

Work on user-facing features built on the MongoDB query engine, implement and test C++ code, improve query performance and robustness, integrate query with other products, and participate in code reviews and design. Deliver new features, fix bugs, and mentor peers over time.

Join the MongoDB Server Query Optimization team to build a distributed open-source query optimizer, focusing on enhancing query performance and robustness. Responsibilities include innovation in flexible schema databases, mentoring team members, and contributing to the technical roadmap based on extensive experience in the database domain.
