The database market is massive (the IDC estimates it to be $89B+ by 2024!) And MongoDB is at the head of its disruption. The MongoDB community is transforming industries and empowering developers to build outstanding apps that people use every day. We are the top tier modern 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.

This Market Intelligence role blends an understanding of key customer requirements, market trends, and technology innovations to analyze how different data management technologies attempt to satisfy them.

You will be responsible for researching and then crafting competitive and market analysis that demonstrates the value of MongoDB products and services to mobile and IoT developers and to senior decision makers, supporting MongoDB account teams and partners in the sales cycle. This analysis is also crucial in helping us craft our product strategy and roadmap, and to advise product positioning and messaging. We are looking for someone to work closely with the product team to play a key part in crafting how we go to market.

You’ll be a core part of an upbeat and globally distributed team that reports to the Director of Market Intelligence. As a member of the team, you will have ongoing opportunities to help develop thought leadership and driven differentiation that broadens your understanding of app development and data management, and builds your experience in the fastest growing sector of the technology industry. You’ll work in partnership with product management and product marketing teams in all of this work.
