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. To help our teams work together effectively, this role requires you to be located in India.

We build and run mission-critical, high-throughput, and highly reliable services (powering alerting, on-call scheduling, incident orchestration, and mobile experiences) that thousands of global organizations depend on 24/7.
You’ll be part of a distributed, highly collaborative triad (Engineering, Product, and Design). We value technical excellence, operational rigor, and continuous innovation—including modern agentic workflows and automated testing—to ship world-class experiences at high velocity.
