Atlassians can choose where they work â 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.

  • Bachelors, Masters, or PhD in Computer science in a related technical field or similar experience



  • 10+ years of experience in software development and architecture



  • Expert-level experience with one or more prominent languages such as Java, C# or C/C++ is crucial.
