Become a speaker >> Video: Toyota Material Handling and Industry 4.0 – Creating a Smart Factory By Moving from Monolith to Microservices, Microsoft Azure and MongoDB Atlas Get started with MongoDB Atlas for Free Mat Keep March 19, 2020 | Updated: March 24, 2020 #Customer Stories Huge wheels of cheese trundle across a factory floor riding automated forklifts that know exactly where, when and how to move their cargo. Humans and their traditional forklifts support the work for some of the more tricky jobs but the real magic at the heart of this operation is how billions of data points get generated, managed, stored and analysed. Industry 4.0 has arrived and Toyota Material Handling Europe is building both the machines and the data platforms, that will make this historic shift in manufacturing a success. Toyota is famous for the quality of its vehicles. Now that same standard is being applied to how its development teams create Internet of Things software that will enable the move to smart, autonomous and safer factories of the future. "At Toyota, we aim to be number one in industry 4.0,” explained Filip Dadgar, Principal System Architect and IT-Manager at Toyota Material Handling Europe. Filip Dadgar, Principal Solutions Architect and IT-Manager at Toyota Material Handling Europe In a recent presentation in Stockholm, Filip described how Toyota Material Handling Europe have already connected over 100000 warehouse trucks with integrated telematics. The trucks are put to use in virtually every business from manufacturing and warehousing to transport. Filips covers a number of interesting topics in his talk, which you can see in full below. He gives the background on Industry 4.0, the developer manifesto his team sign, and the core principles that guide their work. He also discusses the shift from a monolithic codebase towards a microservices approach, which was undertaken so the development teams could be more productive and the platform more user-friendly. Underpinning this change is MongoDB Atlas, MongoDB’s fully-managed, global cloud database service, which Toyota Material Handling runs on Microsoft Azure. Filip explained what it was he liked about MongoDB: "The most beautiful part is the data model. Everything is a natural JSON document. So for the developers, it is easy, really easy for them to work with quickly. Spending time on building business value, rather than data modeling." For the developers, it is easy, really easy for them to work with quickly. Spending time on building business value, rather than data modeling. Filip Dadgar, Principal Solutions Architect and IT-Manager, Toyota Material Handling Europe But it wasn’t just the data model. Toyota Material Handling had eight evaluation criteria that were used to decide on which database platform they would use to make the switch: Performance – latency, scalable reads and writes to meet customer SLAs and accommodate significant growth in the future Automatic scalability, operations, and maintenance that enable developers to focus on applications, rather than backend database administration Security and compliance to safeguard highly sensitive business and personal data Data locality – able to host in Northwest Europe or West Europe in Microsoft Azure, therefore, ensuring close geographic proximity to factories for latency-sensitive operations Automatic backups and restore to provide fully-managed data protection and disaster recovery Cloud agnostic, giving customers the freedom to run anywhere, on any platform Developer friendly database with a flexible data model so that developers can continuously integrate new application functionality and stay ahead of market demands Ecosystem for developer productivity, using proven best practices and widely available skills Watch the full video for more insight into why MongoDB’s technology was the best fit for Toyota Material Handling across those key criteria. Filip also covers two other important elements of the decision: access to MongoDB University for fast and easy web-based developer training and quality relationships with the MongoDB team. Filip said: “Have you met these people? They are always happy to help us. They always smile and they always give us the best support. The team could plan MongoDB University into their sprint and ensure everyone gained a high level of knowledge on the technology very quickly.” Check out the Full Talk Here Learn how MongoDB Atlas can help you move faster.

No matter how many positions you’ve applied for in the past, it’s always a good idea to refresh your resume for each application. If you’re interested in applying to our Marketing team, take a look at my tips for writing an impactful resume. Length and formatting There are some resume formatting tips that you may already know, but I think it’s great to start with the basics. I recommend keeping your resume to two pages or less and breaking it into sub-sections. The top of your resume should have your name, contact details (phone number and email address), and a link to your LinkedIn profile. Next, I recommend including a short summary of you and your experience. For marketing roles, it’s always great to get some insight into the companies and teams you have worked with, projects you have taken part in or led, and some of the main skills you feel you could bring to MongoDB. Next should be your experience. I always advise candidates to break their experience section into three different parts: Company and role: Provide a brief description of the company you previously worked at and a high-level overview of your role there. Responsibilities: Utilize bullet points to provide more detail about the main responsibilities you held while working there. Highlights and achievements: I recommend showcasing some of the main achievements you have had while working in each role. This helps provide a clear picture of your skills and capabilities. At the bottom of your resume, list your highest level of education achieved and any degrees you hold. You may also consider including additional information such as charity or volunteer work you’ve done, other activities you participate in, or hobbies and interests. While we are interested in your professional experience, we’re also interested in learning about you as a person! Highlights and achievements During the recruiting process at MongoDB, we want to learn as much as we can about you. Your resume is your chance to highlight all the great things you’ve done in your career. To reiterate the above, I recommend adding a section under each role you’ve held to list some of your top achievements. This will help show us where your strengths are and how you could impact the Marketing organization at MongoDB. Achievements could be marketing events you held and the impact they had on the organization or campaigns you ran that had a great return on investment. Any internal awards or recognitions you received would be great to add here, too. Numbers, stats, tools, and links As you are listing your highlights and achievements, I’d like to mention that adding numbers and statistics can really go a long way in making your resume stand out. For example, maybe you ran a campaign that led to an uptick in sales leads and conversions. Consider providing the data to showcase this. Visual aids like charts and graphs are also a great addition. If you have some examples of campaigns, webpages, or events you’ve managed, consider adding links to them within your resume. Resumes that are both qualitative and quantitative have the greatest impact and are quickly noticed. Listing some of the marketing tools you have used is also helpful for the recruiter and hiring manager to understand your experience with marketing technology. Under each role, I’d recommend adding a list of the tools you used and your proficiency with them. At MongoDB we use tools such as Salesforce, Tableau, Eliqua, and Splash, so if you’ve had experience with any of those, be sure to highlight it! People management If you are applying for a people management role, I recommend highlighting the mentoring and coaching experience you gained through your management experience. It is also helpful for potential hiring managers to understand how many direct reports you had in previous roles and the seniority level of these direct reports. Attention to detail As a recruiter, I've seen spelling and grammar mistakes on resumes at all levels and from all sectors. We are only human at the end of the day, but when applying for roles in areas such as marketing where attention to detail is key to success, it’s best to give your resume a second (or even third) look. Ensuring that your resume is well-written, grammatically correct, and formatted in an easily readable way will really make it stand out. I hope to see your resume in our applicant tracking system soon! Interested in pursuing a career in marketing at MongoDB?
