Software Engineer 3, AI Framework Integrations
Founding engineer on a new MongoDB team in Gurugram that builds and maintains the connective layer between MongoDB and third-party AI frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, and n8n. Day to day: shipping Python/TypeScript integrations, contributing upstream to open-source repos, and handling tests, releases, and upstream breaking changes.

Skills
Must have
- 3+ years of experience building backend systems, libraries, or developer-facing software
- Solid proficiency in Python and/or TypeScript
- Experience designing, writing, testing, and debugging software in a shared, long-lived codebase, with attention to tests and documentation
- Track record of delivering scoped projects reliably and on time, with growing independence
- Ability to work on several projects at once while keeping quality and commitments as priorities shift
- Clear interest in modern AI builder workflows and developer tooling: AI frameworks, agentic patterns, RAG and retrieval, embedding, vector search
- Solid verbal and written technical communication
- Enjoys collaboration; approachable, curious, and intellectually honest
- Eager to learn, with a strong technical foundation
Nice to have
- Open source contributions, especially work landed in repositories you don't own
- Experience building AI or framework integrations, MCP servers, agent skills, or plugins for agentic applications
- Familiarity with the agentic AI tooling ecosystem (AI IDEs, CLIs, and assistants)
- Experience with CI/CD and automated testing for libraries supporting multiple versions or platforms
- Experience working with databases; familiarity with MongoDB query patterns
- Exposure to vector search, embedding pipelines, or index management
- Working knowledge of Java, Go, C#, or Rust
- Experience with containerization tools (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes) and with AI frameworks and libraries
- Familiarity with Jira and related tools
Full description
AI frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, and n8n are quickly becoming the default way developers build with AI — and MongoDB wants to be the data platform that shows up everywhere they build. As part of the AI Builders Experience (ABX) org, we're standing up a brand new engineering team in Gurugram to make that happen, and we're looking for Software Engineers to be among its founding members.
The team owns the connective layer between MongoDB and third-party AI frameworks, platforms, and tools — the integrations that let developers use MongoDB effectively with the AI stack they've already chosen. That means shipping into some of the fastest-moving open-source ecosystems in tech, working mostly in Python and TypeScript, and partnering with the Database Experience (DBX) org when an integration needs new driver, platform, or product capability underneath it.
This is a strong role for an engineer who wants to grow into the AI space with real ownership. You'll own well-scoped projects from design through release, work with fast-moving and sometimes unproven technologies, and get a clear view of how the ecosystem is evolving. Priorities shift as frameworks change and customer demand moves, so we're looking for engineers who are adaptable, ask good questions, and take pride in shipping. Much of your work will happen in public: sending pull requests to upstream repositories, working through external maintainer review cycles, and participating in developer communities as MongoDB.
You'll work closest with the engineers sitting next to you, pairing on hard problems, reviewing each other's code, and dividing up a broad portfolio, with senior engineers and your manager close at hand as you take on larger pieces of it.
MongoDB engineering teams pride themselves on building high-quality software and living our cultural values every day. We value intellectual curiosity, intellectual honesty, customer empathy, and building together in an environment that prioritizes collaboration over competition.
We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Gurugram for our hybrid working model.
Position expectations
- Build, test, and ship MongoDB integrations across a broad AI framework ecosystem that includes technologies like LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, n8n, and Mastra
- Own well-scoped projects end to end on weekly-to-quarterly timelines, taking responsibility for the scope, schedule, and quality of your own work and communicating progress and trade-offs clearly
- Solve day-to-day technical problems with growing independence, using the team's established patterns and past practice to guide your decisions, and seeking guidance on non-standard problems
- Contribute to exploratory work on new frameworks: help evaluate an integration's feasibility, build a first working version of the piece you own, and share what you learn with the team
