About the job

The worldwide data management software market is massive (According to IDC, the worldwide database software market, which it refers to as the database management systems software market, was forecasted to be approximately $82 billion in 2023 growing to approximately $137 billion in 2027. This represents a 14% compound annual growth rate). At MongoDB we are transforming industries and empowering developers to build amazing apps that people use every day. We are the leading developer data platform and the first database provider to IPO in over 20 years. Join our team and be at the forefront of innovation and creativity.

MongoDB Professional Services (PS) works with customers of all shapes and sizes, in all verticals, from tier-1 banks to small web startups, on a variety of exciting use cases. This role solves technically sophisticated problems, gains incredible cross-stack experience, works with top-notch people in the business, networks with industry leaders, and sees new places - all in a day’s work!

MongoDB PS exists to support the development of our customers’ vision, accelerate customers’ time to value, and drive a multitude of customer adoption scenarios – from building new solutions to modernizing legacy applications or migrating to cloud. Our consulting solutions ensure that organizations get the best out of MongoDB.

As the Senior Technical Project Manager, you will work in conjunction with the team’s Technical Lead to lead a small Agile team responsible for migrating a customer’s legacy Java application to a modern cloud-based architecture running on MongoDB. The team will use the latest genAI tools and approaches to accelerate the migration process. You will also be responsible for liaising with customers and internal stakeholders, managing concerns and potential resolutions, and guiding the team towards success. The Agile team will be required to be innovative in deriving solutions to unseen challenges, and you will foster a culture of innovation and collaboration within the team.

We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Gurugram for our hybrid working model.
