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. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.

Atlassian is looking for a passionate data and analytics expert who will power-up our teams to derive even more meaningful financial insights from data. Is that you?

You love working a job that can drive real changes with data. You are not fazed by the complexity and volume of data nor the dynamic sources and platforms where these datasets may reside, and understand the value this data provides when we make critical business decisions. You thrive in an environment where you are charting your own course and working on problems for which there is no clear solution; where creativity is as crucial as your ability to write code. You are someone who thrives in a high-performing team and enjoys working in a dynamic environment with plenty of opportunities to learn and develop. With strong partner engagement skills, you are able to juggle competing priorities and deliver on deadlines.


Our team is looking for someone who is passionate about data, a self-starter, highly organized, analytical and has a good eye for detail.

You will become the Principal Data Analyst on the team who not only understands the financial data at Atlassian but also knows how to use it to make that data actionable. You will be supporting the Forecasting team, as well as partnering with the Financial Modelling (Anaplan) and Data Engineering teams to enhance FP&A’s forecast models.

You love thinking about how the business can benefit from this data, and you will have access to an analytics platform (built on Amazon Web Services) to create new data assets, automate analyses and reporting, and create insightful visualisations.


On your first day, we’ll expect you to have:

  • 8+ years of experience in complex data analytics or relevant experience using data to drive insights at industry-leading or fast-growing companies

  • Expertise in SQL, Tableau, Excel, and other analytics tools

  • Ability to adapt quickly and effectively to changing environments and initiatives

  • An excellent communicator and passionate to collaborate with global, multi-functional teams

  • A willingness to accept failure, learn and try again

It’s preferred, but not required that you have:

  • A degree in Business, Statistics, Finance, Engineering, or a related analytical field

  • Technology or Software / SaaS industry experience

  • Experience using Databricks, Python, and dbt

  • Experience with ETL, Data Warehousing

  • Familiarity with Statistics and different forecasting methodologies

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: $149,000 - $198,700

Zone B: $134,100 - $178,800

Zone C: $123,700 - $164,900

This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity.
