- Perform backup/restore, disaster recovery planning, and failover testing.
- Ensure high availability, replication health, and cluster stability.
- Implement and maintain monitoring (Atlas, Ops Manager, Prometheus, PagerDuty, Grafana, ELK, PMM etc.).
- Security & Compliance
- Configure and enforce authentication, authorization, and role-based access control.
- Implement encryption at rest and in transit, auditing, and compliance controls.
- Enable secure deployment patterns and vulnerability remediation.
Troubleshooting & Support
- Diagnose and resolve issues related to:
- Replication lag
- Locking and contention
- Memory/CPU bottlenecks
- Storage performance
Who you are:

- Familiarity with programming languages commonly used with MongoDB (Node.js, Python, Java).
- Knowledge of networking, storage, and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).
- Experience supporting high-volume, business-critical production systems.
Soft Skills
- Strong communication and collaboration with developers and cross-functional teams.
- Analytical mindset with a focus on performance and reliability.
- Ability to work in fast-paced, distributed environments.

- Background in SQL databases and migration from relational to NoSQL.
- Experience in monitoring 24/7 highly available production environments.
- Experience in gaming, betting, fintech, payments, e-commerce, or other transaction-intensive industries.
