How We Build
Pull request intervention for infrastructure-as-code risks with Bitbucket custom merge checks
Establishing progressive deployments to control blast radius for the most active types of changes in an architecture is often well worth the investment. But what about those less frequent, or sometimes obscure changes? Learn how Atlassian used the rich integration ecosystem available in Bitbucket and Forge to surface identified risks in our infrastructure-as-code.
Building a Multi Region Compliant Customer Data Lake at Scale
Atlassian built a unified customer data lake to overcome limitations in analytics, data export, and operational database strain as their cloud customer base grew. By adopting a logical replication and data mesh approach, they enabled real-time analytics, secure data exports, and scalable dashboards for millions of users across regions.
Mobbing with AI
Mobbing with AI is a tight loop where the mob designs the work, sets standards, and reviews everything, while AI accelerates execution with fast drafts, tests, and options. Together they iterate in small cycles, capture learnings, and update specs so the AI keeps improving at “how this team works,” boosting speed without sacrificing shared understanding or maintainability.
From pixels to beats: Designing the Race Mode Soundscape
At Atlassian, play is often where the real ideas begin. Earlier this year, during our ShipIt hackathon (where Atlassians drop everything to build bold new ideas), a simple sketch I received sparked something unexpected: Whiteboard’s very first easter egg. What began as a tiny racing experiment quickly evolved into a fully functional arcade-style racing game […]
Taming Test Flakiness: How We Built a Scalable Tool to Detect and Manage Flaky Tests
Flaky tests erode trust in CI and waste thousands of engineering hours. This article explains how Atlassian built Flakinator, a scalable, stack‑agnostic platform that automatically detects, quarantines, and manages flaky tests across millions of daily executions.
Rovo Dev CLI and Mutation Testing to Write Better Tests
Rovo Dev CLI combines powerful AI with mutation testing tools like Pitest to automatically write high‑quality tests, improve mutation coverage, and raise PRs for you.
Under the Hood of Confluence Race Mode
Discover how we built Race Mode, a mini-game in Confluence whiteboards, combining play, performance, and fun for teams.
Turning Handoffs into Handshakes: Integrating Design Systems for AI Prototyping at Scale
Design is changing, and so are our tools. At Atlassian, we’re bringing AI into design and engineering with purpose. Early on, we doubted it could meet our design‑system standards; we’ve since learned it can when grounded in collaboration, efficiency, and craft. AI reduces inefficiencies and augments people. It takes first passes on ideation, UI comps, […]
