About Atlassian
Atlassian's mission, "to unleash the potential of every team," is the guiding light behind our work. We have developed well-known products such as Jira, Confluence, and Trello that fit into the fabric of teamwork across different types of teams and the processes to help every team succeed.
Atlassians can choose where they work - whether in an office, from home, or a combination. 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 as part of being a distributed-first company.
About this role
Data is a big deal at Atlassian. We ingest billions of events each month into our analytical platforms and have dozens of teams across the company that depend on data platforms to drive their decisions.
