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.


We are looking for an engineer who is passionate about scaling Cloud services to join our growing Jira SRE team. The Jira SRE team owns the database infrastructure, tooling and automation that Jira Cloud runs on, and has a deep understanding of how Jira Cloud leverages its infrastructure to meet customer reliability expectations.

We'd love it if you had an understanding of modern Cloud infrastructure, programming expertise, operational experience and a desire to change the status quo. We're looking for an engineer who can analyze and help improve our services and processes to get us to an even higher level of reliability, performance, scalability, and cost efficiency.

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

  • 1+ years experience operating high-availability, fault-tolerant, scalable, distributed software in production: building monitoring into your code, tweaking dashboards, defining alerts, writing runbooks, etc.

  • 1+ years of hands-on experience with public cloud offerings (AWS components like EC2, CloudFormation, RDS / Aurora, Caches, SQS - or equivalents, e.g. in GCP / Azure).

  • Familiarity with Unix / Linux operating systems.

  • Great emphasis to debug, improve code, and automate routine tasks.

  • Backend engineering experience in one or more prominent languages such as Java, Go or Python.

  • Strong communication skills in written and verbal forms, and an ability to communicate complex technical issues to a range of technical and non-technical audiences (management, peers, clients)

It would be great, but not mandatory if you had:

  • Experience in datastores (RDBMS, time-series-database, NoSql, search, analytics).

  • Experience in microservice architecture.

  • Experience building web-services and clients using REST/GraphQL.
