Principal Data Scientist, Events

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.

Your future team

You will be part of a world-class Data Science team that leverages data to drive insights about our products and customers. The Data Science team partners closely with Product Managers/Engineers/Researchers/Data Engineers/Marketers/Privacy and Executive teams across Atlassian to drive and influence. The team is responsible for using a variety of analysis and data-science techniques to understand how Atlassian’s customers engage with our products and communications and, in doing so, identify, design, and measure the success of product investments.

Atlassian is hiring an experienced data science leader for our Enterprise go-to-market team focussed on Events. The Enterprise GTM team is a group that informs go-to-market programs and strategies to help Atlassian products unleash the potential of every Enterprise team. Our team focuses on the important moments within the Enterprise team's discovery of and journey with Atlassian products. We uncover and guide data-informed strategies across Atlassian's go-to-market organization.

Compensation

At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. To support this goal, the baseline of our range is higher than that of the typical market range, but in turn we expect to hire most candidates near this baseline.

For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are:
