Principal Machine Learning Scientist

Principal Machine Learning Scientist

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.

Atlassian is looking for a remote Principal Machine Learning Scientist to join our Core Machine Learning team. The Core Machine Learning team builds and deploys ML modeling solutions to increase revenue generation, expand our active user base and enhance internal productivity and efficiency. This is a unique opportunity to work in a collaborative environment and implement the latest machine learning techniques, including LLM (large language models).

Your future team

The Core Machine Learning team sits within the Data Science group in the Atlassian Corporate Engineering Organization. We work with several business teams in GTM, growth, product, and many other teams providing machine learning infrastructure and modeling applications. Our team consists of ML scientists and engineers, and provides many opportunities for collaboration, knowledge sharing, and individual growth. The team is split geographically between the US and Australia, supporting partners across the regions. You will report to the Core Machine Learning Senior Manager.


Your background:

  • Master and above degree in a quantitative subject (Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Operations Research, or relevant work experience)
  • 5+ years of related industry experience in the machine learning domain
  • Expertise in Python with and the ability to write performant production-quality code, familiarity with SQL, knowledge of Spark and cloud data environments (e.g. AWS, Databricks)
  • Experience building and scaling machine learning models in business applications using large amounts of data
  • Experience building NLP related applications
  • Focus on business practicality and the 80/20 rule; very high bar for output quality, but recognize the business benefit of "having something now" vs "perfection sometime in the future"
  • Agile development mindset, appreciating the benefit of constant iteration and improvement

Compensation

At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable and explainable 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. Base pay within the range is ultimately determined by a candidate's skills, expertise, or experience.

In the United States, we have three geographic pay zones. For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are:

Zone A: $229,300 - $305,700

Zone B: $206,300 - $275,100

Zone C: $190,300 - $253,700

This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity.
