Let's take a close look at what you can expect in the Grad++ program.


The initial onboarding stage: setting you up for success

Newlassian Orientation: Upon joining Atlassian, all new employees, including new grads, will be welcomed by the Newlassian program in their first week. This program serves as a guiding compass to help you acclimate and settle down in the Atlassian workplace.

Atlassian Grad++: The ultimate grad program!

Picking up from where TEAM camp onboarding leaves off, Grad++ spans for the rest of your first year at Atlassian. Immerse yourself in our connected culture, engage in supported learning experiences, and build connections at grad-exclusive events. Our Grad++ program offers the following experiences that shape your first year:

  • Grad++ Learning
  • Grad++ Mentoring
  • Grad++ Socials

Grad++ Learning

Developed and delivered by Atlassian experts, this thoughtfully curated learning series covers both technical and professional skills. The technical skills sessions delve deeper into engineering-specific tools and topics you use in your professional journey at Atlassian. The professional development sessions focus on teaching fundamental career skills such as collaboration, project management, and stakeholder engagement. They also cover Atlassian’s performance review processes to help you set goals and identify areas for improvement.

To ensure an engaging and exciting learning experience, our delivery method includes both in-person and online sessions conducted in formal and informal environments. The program features a range of interactive formats, including facilitated sessions led by senior engineers and Ask Me Anything (AMA) sessions with a variety of presenters from the business.

Grad++ Mentoring

Mentorship plays a crucial role in the program, giving you a valuable opportunity to connect and gain in-depth knowledge from seasoned colleagues. Every new Engineering Grad will be matched with an Engineering Mentor within their team, project, or a related team. Your mentor will provide personalized 1:1 guidance to aid in your professional development. In collaboration with your manager, the mentor serves as an extra support system to assist you in onboarding and advancing your career at Atlassian.

Grad++ Socials

The Grad++ program not only prioritizes learning but also networking for career success. To help you build meaningful connections, we organize in-office and remote social events where you can meet with your fellow grads, gain new perspectives and ideas, and foster lifelong relationships.


Our Grad++ program will equip you with the skills you need to succeed here at Atlassian and beyond. You’ll also get the chance to flex those skills and make an impact at ShipIt, our bi-annual hackathon.

At Atlassian, everyone is an innovator. Our bi-annual ShipIts gives everyone 24 hours to work on completely new passion projects to “scratch that itch,” whatever it may be! We strongly encourage all grads to take part in ShipIt to experience how a team comes together to bring an idea to life.


Our Grad++ program is designed to help you develop your career, network with your peers, and accelerate your evolution into an exceptional engineer.
