Atlassians can choose where they work - whether in an office, from home, or a combination of the two. That way, Atlassians have more control over supporting their family, personal goals, and other priorities. We can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity.

  • Understand the user journey and user funnel

  • Debug inefficiencies on the team and fix them
  • Ship well-tested, secure, reliable, and maintainable code while keeping our customers best interests in mind
  • Contribute to code reviews, documentation, and complex bug fixes with security, performance and reliability in mind
  • Mentor and level up the skills of your teammates by sharing your expertise
  • Improve the growth engineering team through mentoring
  • Identify blockers to ensure software engineering excellence (design principles and patterns, unit testing, performance engineering, best practices for security and privacy)
Qualifications
  • 10+ years of experience designing/building enterprise-grade solutions using microservices
  • Background in Java, Kotlin, Observability tools, and service operations
  • In-depth knowledge of AWS offerings
  • Experience building distributed systems for a SaaS product

  • Success with cross-company collaboration
  • Experience influencing and performance coaching engineers
Compensation

At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. To support this goal, the baseline of our range is higher than that of the typical market range, but in turn we expect to hire most candidates near this baseline. Base pay within the range is ultimately determined by a candidate's skills, expertise, or experience. In the United States, we have three geographic pay zones. For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are:

Zone A: USD 206100 - USD 269075
Zone B: USD 186300 - USD 243225
Zone C: USD 171900 - USD 224425

This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity. Please visit go.atlassian.com/payzones for more information on which locations are included in each of our geographic pay zones. However, please confirm the zone for your specific location with your recruiter.
