Lead/Senior Software Engineer - infancy stage! (polyglot) at mongoDB (New York, NY)

MongoDB Stitch, is a new backend as a service that lets you directly access MongoDB anywhere and interact with other services such as AWS S3, SES, GitHub, and Twilio. Stitch is backed by declarative rules and functions, that create your code that we run for you.

This team will own the integration of Stitch with MongoDB Mobile as well as all of the SDKs for Stitch (Stitch currently supports SDKs for IOS, Android and Web/Node).
