Working at Atlassian

Atlassian can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity. Assuming you have eligible working rights and a time zone overlap with your team, you can choose to work remotely or from an office (unless it's necessary for your role to be performed in the office). Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.

With enough timezone overlap with the team, we're able to hire eligible candidates for this role from any location in Australia or New Zealand.

Your future team

Every digital company needs a “System of Work” to provide a unifying backbone that codifies what is important to focus on and how the company works as these trends grow. A system of work must enable diverse set of tools to be used together to create any unique workflow needed by a team or organization so they’re empowered to work in the tools they want. Building cross-product at Atlassian is difficult, and we don’t do it very often. Teamwork Graph aims to making building cross-product at Atlassian easy, including third-party products.

This team, part of Teamwork Graph, empowers Atlassian to build experiences on top of third-party data through building platform capabilities all products can leverage.
