Role

Everyday here would be a dribble between balancing short term priorities with long term platform capabilities and the team has an army of PEs, Senior PE’s that you would be closely working with. Needless to say, mentoring and growth would follow. You will play a critical role in shaping the roadmap for the team. You’ll be a hands on engineer and go-to-engineer for the team and your stakeholders.

Your greatest responsibility will be to ensure timely delivery of projects with utmost quality spanning multiple teams, identifying and managing dependencies, creating win-win-win situations for all teams involved, in turn creating win for Atlassian.

This is a unique role which requires a combination of engineering excellence, operational excellence and execution excellence while balancing quality and speed. You will have a lot of autonomy and accountability and a team of brilliant engineers to support you in this journey. You will code as a part of your day to day role to win the respect of the team while also looking at the overall project deliverables.
