Exhibit 99.1
MongoDB, Inc. Announces Mike Berry as Chief Financial Officer

Berry joins MongoDB with more than three decades of expertise in software and cloud businesses

New York City, New York – April 28, 2025 – MongoDB, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDB) today announced the appointment of Mike Berry as Chief Financial Officer, effective May 27, 2025. Berry will lead MongoDB’s accounting, FP&A, treasury and investor relations efforts and partner with other senior leaders to set and deliver on the company’s long-term strategic and financial objectives.

Berry joins MongoDB from NetApp, where he served as CFO for the past five years. A seven-time CFO, Berry previously held that role at McAfee, FireEye, Informatica, IO, Solarwinds, and i2 Technologies. Berry brings to MongoDB over 30 years of experience, a wealth of experience in the technology and software industry, and a proven track record of driving profitable growth.

“Mike’s unique combination of strategic, operational, and financial expertise makes him a key addition to the MongoDB leadership team,” said Dev Ittycheria, President and CEO of MongoDB. “His industry expertise and proven ability to drive efficient growth aligns perfectly with our vision for the future. 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.”

“I’m thrilled to join MongoDB at such an exciting moment in its growth journey,” said Berry. “The company’s incredible track record of product innovation and established leadership position in one of the largest, most strategic markets in software provides significant growth drivers that we expect to benefit our business for years to come. While it was not my intention to pursue another CFO role when we announced my retirement from NetApp, the opportunity to join a company the caliber of MongoDB was incredibly compelling. I can’t wait to get started in late May and I look forward to working with the team to create long-term value for our customers, shareholders, and employees.”

The Company will report its first quarter fiscal year 2026 financial results for the three months ended April 30, 2025, after the U.S. financial markets close on June 4, 2025.
