Overview

Working at Atlassian

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.

We’re looking for a senior technical leader who can shape systems and technical direction across multiple quarters while remaining close to architecture, experimentation, quality, and production systems.

You’ll have the opportunity to work across a number of areas including model post training, personalization/recommendation, proactive and other agentic experiences.
