Site Reliability Engineer

MongoDB is seeking a Site Reliability Engineer to join the Infrastructure Security (InfraSec) team within Site Reliability Engineering in the CTO organization. The team builds security infrastructure, primitives, and reusable controls to protect MongoDB Atlas across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud (GCP). InfraSec operates on a preventative, enabling model, developing automated guardrails and platform capabilities that integrate security into the platform runtime, CI/CD, and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) workflows.

• Harden hosts and containerized workloads using Linux security mechanisms (AppArmor, SELinux, seccomp, cgroups) and eBPF-based tooling (Cilium, Tetragon).
• Secure containerized infrastructure across multi-cloud environments via RBAC, network policies, admission controls (Gatekeeper), and runtime threat detection.
• Build and manage automated services for Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), workload identity, vulnerability management, and access controls across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
• Write production-quality code and leverage Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) to version, test, and deploy security controls as code.
• Build real-time security monitoring, logging, and alerting systems to detect anomalies and track security posture at Atlas scale.
• Lead initiatives across their full lifecycle, from threat modeling and architectural design to implementation, rollout, and long-term production reliability.

• Staff: 10+ years in SRE, Infrastructure Engineering, or Cloud Security Engineering.
• Strong coding skills in Go (Golang), Python, C, C++, or Rust.
• Proven track record of building and operating large-scale distributed systems or cloud platform infrastructure.
• Hands-on experience using Terraform, CloudFormation, or Ansible for automated infrastructure provisioning.
• Demonstrated experience owning infrastructure in Linux, Kubernetes, and at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure).

• Practical experience with eBPF-based security tooling (Cilium, Falco, Tetragon).
• Direct ownership of Cloud Security and Workload Identity platforms.
• Multi-cloud expertise spanning AWS, Azure, and GCP.
• Production exposure to low-level Linux security mechanisms (seccomp, AppArmor, SELinux, cgroups).
