Senior Product Manager, Replication & Storage Engines

MongoDB is seeking an experienced Product Manager to own the strategy and execution for two tightly integrated layers of our core database: Replication and Storage Engines (WiredTiger). Together, these layers underpin MongoDB’s durability, availability, and performance for customers running mission-critical workloads. This role spans two very different levels of customer visibility. Replication is, at its core, about keeping a distributed system in sync. Customer-facing concepts like failover, read concerns, and write concerns are how those guarantees surface. Customers understand and articulate those directly. WiredTiger internals like eviction, checkpointing, and cache management are invisible to customers, but are often blamed when "the system is misbehaving". You’ll need to move comfortably between both worlds: translating ambiguous customer symptoms into precise priorities for the storage engines team deep in the stack, while driving the replication roadmap and partnering with fellow database product managers on cross-cutting concerns. We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in New York City or Seattle for our hybrid working model. Responsibilities Own the product direction, roadmap, and execution plan for MongoDB’s replication and storage engine layers, ensuring we continue to deliver rock-solid durability, availability, and performance for mission-critical workloads Define the long-term roadmap for the storage engine (WiredTiger), balancing architectural investments against near-term escalation pressure Define and track measurable service-level objectives (SLOs) for replication lag, failover time, storage engine health and predictability, and customer data durability Distill ambiguous customer pain (e.g. "the system falls over" or "we see intermittent latency spikes") into actionable, scoped priorities for Storage Engines. Frame work in customer-outcome terms so the team can spot gaps independently Lead high-stakes escalations, coordinating with Support and engineering to resolve issues and reduce churn risk Drive improvements to the replication protocol, including elections, consensus, failover, read/write concern semantics, and distributed transaction consistency Own product direction for oplog, initial sync, elections, rollback, and replica set configuration Maintain clear ownership boundaries with the Storage Execution Product Manager Enable Sales, Support, Customer Success, and Product Marketing as the subject-matter expert for replication and storage engine reliability Partner with engineering leadership on quarterly planning, technical strategy, and project scoping Requirements You can take a messy customer problem and turn it into something an engineering team can act on. When someone reports "intermittent latency spikes," you know how to dig in, ask the right questions, and trace it back to a root cause You are strong technically. You understand how distributed systems work, how databases store and replicate data, and you can hold your own in a room full of highly technical engineers You have a track record of making decisions and shipping in complex technical environments, not just analyzing You collaborate well with highly empowered engineering teams. This role influences through clarity and conviction, not authority You have experience working directly with enterprise customers on technical solutions You communicate complex concepts in a manner that is easily understood by multiple audiences, from deep-stack engineers to field teams to customers Bonus Points Experience with replication protocols, distributed consensus, storage engines, or other core database internals (B-tree engines, write-ahead logging, cache management) Experience managing products where the end user has no direct visibility into the component. You're used to being the bridge between customer experience and deeply internal systems behavior A track record of handling complex customer escalations and turning them into product improvements 5 or more years of experience in product management or a deeply technical customer-facing role Scope of Ownership This role spans two major areas of MongoDB's core server: Replication : the replication protocol (elections, rollback, heartbeats), replica set configuration, oplog, read/write concern, startup recovery, distributed transactions, initial sync, etc Storage Engines : WiredTiger and the encrypted storage engine, durability guarantees, memory management (cache sizing, eviction), checkpointing and journaling, timestamp-based data visibility rules, and data validation, repair, and recovery tools, spanning multiple sub-teams within the Storage Engines organization About MongoDB MongoDB is built for change, empowering our customers and our people to innovate at the speed of the market.
