Your role

MongoDB seeks motivated and talented students to help build the next-generation database platform. As an intern, you will work directly with MongoDB's product managers, user experience designers, and software engineers. You will be fully integrated into the team, helping to understand and analyze users' needs and pain points, and advocating on their behalf. You will mine various data sources, discuss technical constraints with engineers and designers to create new product requirements and experiences, and refine and communicate the product strategy to relevant stakeholders.

The Field Engineering organization is a fast-paced, entrepreneurial team whose focus is bridging the gap between MongoDB official database products and the reality of the services organizations which are “boots on the ground” and often rely upon quickly created tools to assist customers with modernizing their application code and architectures. The sort of projects they work on are varied but include a combination of research, proof of concept, and product development. Since they focus on GenAI, this includes working with LLMs, parsing tools, agentic frameworks, etc. The tools are immediately usable, experimented on, and then refined by a broad engineering team worldwide.

As an intern, you will work on one or more of these GenAI projects with dedicated mentors who will help you learn the nuances of product software development. During your internship, you will have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on a production codebase with a team committed to you having a positive experience.

The code that the storage engines team manages has cutting-edge algorithms. We have a few select people who read research papers to make sure that we are always the most efficient. I found that so cool!
