MongoDB Announces CEO Transition Chirantan “CJ” Desai to Step Down as President and Chief Executive Officer Dev Ittycheria Appointed Interim President and Chief Executive Officer NEW YORK, Sept. 28, 2026 -- MongoDB, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDB) today announced that Chirantan “CJ” Desai has stepped down as President and CEO of MongoDB, effective immediately. Desai is leaving to pursue a senior role at Meta Platforms, Inc. The Board has appointed Dev Ittycheria as interim President and CEO, also effective immediately. Ittycheria served as President and CEO of MongoDB from 2014 to 2025, an eleven-year tenure. During his leadership, MongoDB grew from an early-stage disruptor into a global technology leader, scaling from approximately $35 million to more than $2.3 billion in annual revenue. "MongoDB’s business is strong, and there is no better person to take on the role of President and CEO in the interim than Dev Ittycheria," said Tom Killalea, Chairman of the Board of Directors. “He knows this company deeply, has remained an involved and active executive board member over the past year, and will step in immediately to ensure a seamless transition.” “I’m honored to step back into the President and CEO role at MongoDB,” said Ittycheria. “I was privileged to lead the company for more than a decade and help build MongoDB into the global business it is today. I know the company, our people and our customers extremely well, and I have enormous confidence in the opportunity ahead. I look forward to working with our leadership team and thousands of talented employees around the world to move quickly, execute with focus, and continue delivering exceptional value to our customers.” The Board has initiated a search process to identify MongoDB’s next permanent CEO and has retained an executive search firm to assist in that process. The company remains confident in the outlook for the business and is reaffirming its guidance for Q3 and the full year fiscal 2027 provided on September 1st, 2026. Investor Day MongoDB will be hosting an Investor Day at Nasdaq MarketSite on Tuesday, September 29th from 11:00 am–3:15 pm ET. The MongoDB leadership team will share an in-depth look at our long-term strategy, market opportunities, and product innovation driving the future of developer data platforms and AI. We welcome you to join the live teleconference here.

Except as required by law, we undertake no duty or obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this release as a result of new information, future events, changes in expectations or otherwise.
