This is an incredibly exciting time for MongoDB as customers are in the very early stages of harnessing GenAI to build new applications and modernize their vast installed base of legacy workloads.  Mike's experience with consumption models and history of successfully scaling businesses to $5 billion in revenue and beyond make him the ideal choice to serve as MongoDB's next CFO."
