Industry Solutions Consultant

MongoDB, as a database software and consistently voted the #1 most wanted database preferred by developers, is continuing to attract the most demanding, innovative companies and development teams in enterprise software. 

To meet this demand, we are looking for passionate technologists to join our growing Industry Solutions Team (IST), a remote/flexible, globally-dispersed team. Our objective is to align MongoDB as an industry solution and ensure we understand enterprise clients and their needs to modernize software legacies, transition to modernized solutions, and guide them through continuous data-driven modernization.

MongoDB Industry Solutions Consultants communicate the direction of MongoDB’s platform to customers and industry partner communities (i.e. webinars, client presentations, blog content, video content, live/virtual events, demos, account support, etc.), while keeping up with continuous data trends. We’re looking for someone who is willing/able to deeply understand the technology we work with while being able to communicate it in a language our clients understand, taking into consideration their industries. This will require a technical background, foundational DBMS/DBaaS understanding, programming knowledge, an interest in customer-facing interactions, and a keen interest to continue learning and digging into how this applies to specific industries.

The team responsibilities range from early research into current/up-and-coming industry solutions, collaboration with external partners, collaboration with internal team, from marketing to product and how they ingest and pivot to industry trends, to generating and delivering content of MongoDB as an industry solution internally and externally.  You'll work closely with multiple teams, such as marketing, product, pre-sales, sales enablement and sales teams, as well as play a key role in winning deals and driving the business forward, as subject matter experts. Our team is an exciting, diverse group, made up of ambitious, innovative thinkers that range from software thought leaders and entrepreneurs to young professionals.
