MongoDB | Staff Software Engineer - Query Optimization | Full-time | Remote USA, NYC, SF, Seattle, etc.
I'm looking for a technical leader with significant expertise in query optimization to help define the future of query processing at MongoDB, the world's most popular non-relational database. Our code is open-source, in modern C++. This is an individual contributor position and your time will be split between coding, architecture, and technical mentorship.
This person must understand both the theory of query optimization and the practical challenges of safely shipping a new query optimizer on a mission-critical DBMS.
MongoDB | Software Engineer, Query | Full-time | $180-300k+ (total comp, negotiable) | NYC or Remote (North America only) | https://mongodb.com
MongoDB started as a NoSQL document database, but we are growing into a data platform with sophisticated support for transactional, analytics, full-text search, and time-series queries at huge scale.
This opening is specifically for my Database Query Optimization team, where you'll make core contributions to our flagship open source codebase (https://github.com/mongodb/mongo).
If you have relational or NoSQL Database expertise, that's great, but what's most important is that you have a track record of delivering robust implementations of complex algorithms in data-intensive production applications. The "SE3" level of this job requires 2+ years of experience and senior level requires 5+.

I'd recommend looking at a cheap TI-36X Pro. It's solar powered and responsive. It's not a graphing calculator, but it has the nice graphing-calculator features most people really need (movable cursor and multi-line display with scrollable history).

We're building a petabyte-scale distributed database for analytics (OLAP) workloads, with an emphasis on low-level performance optimizations. Our approach is to build nearly everything from scratch in C++, including custom distributed storage systems, filesystems, task schedulers, consensus protocols, and an advanced SQL stats engine and query planner/optimizer. As an engineer here, you'll tackle really challenging problems and work with huge systems but also get the pride of ownership and autonomy that comes with a startup. We currently have about 50 engineers on the team, and our technical standards are very high.

The decision to retire early is not binding. You can always change your mind later, so I wouldn't look for 99% certainty of "success."
The bigger question is whether you'll be happy with a life of leisure. I say count your blessings and try it out and see if you're happy without work! If so, then you can surely tweak your spending rate to match your quite significant savings.
