Intern Spotlight: Jonathan Mason

This year, MongoDB welcomed 33 university students to our intern program in Engineering, Marketing, and Education. In this series, we'll introduce you to the talented students who are helping us transform development and operations for how we run applications today. I had the chance to sit down with Jonathan Mason who spent this past summer working with our Community Marketing team! Where do you go to school, what is your major, and what year are you in? I’m going into my final year at McGill University. I have a major in History and a minor in Political Science and Economics. What is your role at MongoDB? I work for the Community Marketing team, essentially that means I help produce content and organize events that further MongoDB usage worldwide. How did you find out about the internship program at MongoDB? Why did you choose to come to MongoDB? I found out through a friend who said she loved the company. I chose to come here out of curiosity: I wanted to learn what it meant to work in the tech industry and to see if a Liberal Arts major like myself could handle it. What’s your hometown? I was born in NYC but my family moved upstate to Woodstock, NY after 9/11. In 2011 I moved to Montreal to study at McGill University. Did you have previous experience using MongoDB before you arrived? If so, how are things different now that you work at MongoDB? If not, how did you learn MongoDB and how was the education process? I don’t code, which has made my education process both confusing and enlightening. Ever since I arrived here I have been reading as much as possible about the company and how their product works. I think in the 21st century it is increasingly important to understand the technology that runs our economy and influences our lives. Ever since coming here I find myself asking more questions about the devices we all use on a daily basis but many of us do not understand. Bike or public transportation to work? MTA What’s a typical day (or week) for you? I wake up at 9:00am, put on some pants and stumble into the West village in search of coffee. Then I enjoy a very short commute to Times Square sand begin work. I get off work around 5:30-6:00pm and then usually Skype my girlfriend who is working in Belgium this summer or go run along the West Side Highway. What do you love most about MongoDB? I love the feeling of possibility and growth. Ever since being here I’m starting to view the economy in a different way. Not as something static and closed off, but as an environment full of opportunities for those willing to engage, think, and innovate. What’s the most challenging aspect of your job? Learning how the tech industry works in a conceptual sense. It’s a very important industry to understand. What do you hope to accomplish while you’re here? I hope to contribute as much as I can to the vision and image of this company, which I think will accomplish great things. What’s your favorite Seamless lunch order? Anything with Sushi. Name one secret skill you have, unrelated to work. I’m really into memorizing when presidents were in office. I also love maps and geography in general. Don’t know if that counts as a skill or if I’m just weird. Kindle or book? I prefer books but I think we should save the trees. Describe your perfect weekend. Sleep late, wake up somewhere new, spend the day with people I love and talk late into the night. Want to help build the next revolution in database technology? MongoDB offers summer internships and new graduate opportunities to foster computer science talent across the country.

MongoDB Releases “Focus Mode” in Compass GUI

We’re excited to announce an improvement to the aggregation-building experience in MongoDB Compass. Compass already makes it easy to view and manage your MongoDB databases, and with the addition of Focus Mode you now have the option to dial in on specific stages within your aggregation pipeline. Overview MongoDB's Query API and Aggregation Pipelines enable easy retrieval and processing of data from collections. They also facilitate complex operations such as filtering, grouping, and transforming, making computation and analysis effortless. MongoDB Compass' intuitive interface simplifies the process of building aggregations by enabling developers to easily create, test, and refine aggregation pipelines, and the introduction of Focus Mode takes this a step further. When constructing pipelines, having to simultaneously view and consider multiple stages can make it challenging to analyze the impact of a specific stage, leading to increased cognitive load. Now, developers can toggle Focus Mode on stages, opening a view that focuses exclusively on the contents of the specific stage they are working on. This view can also be used to view sample input (before the aggregation stage is applied) and output (after the stage is applied) documents, aiding in the understanding, troubleshooting, and optimizing of the data pipeline. Developers can also switch between different stages by accessing a drop-down menu at the top of their screen. This makes identifying inefficiencies and optimizing performance easier, as well as providing deeper insights from the output documents for data-driven decision making. Focus Mode offers a streamlined and distraction-free environment for working with stages, improving the efficiency and precision of testing, debugging, and analyzing the impact of each stage on the data, ultimately simplifying the creation and management of pipelines. Conclusion The addition of Focus Mode is part of our continued refresh of the query and aggregation experience in Compass. These improvements are made possible thanks to the feedback of our developer community, so we encourage you to try out this new feature and let us know what you think!
