[Hiring] Senior Fullstack Software Engineer @Atlassian

Role Description

We’re looking for a senior full‑stack engineer to support our DX team at Atlassian. Someone who’s as comfortable diving into a Ruby on Rails codebase and raw SQL as they are crafting thoughtful, accessible UI in React and TailwindCSS. You’ll work end‑to‑end on features: from shaping vague problem statements with product and design, to shipping high‑quality code, to measuring impact and iterating quickly.

Responsibilities

• Build and ship features and capabilities daily in a highly scalable, cross-geo distributed environment.
• Focus on backend-heavy fullstack development, building robust REST APIs while contributing to customer-facing React components.
• Review code with best practices of readability, testing patterns, documentation, reliability, security, and performance considerations in mind.
• Collaborate with other engineers, designers, and product managers to understand user pain points and iterate on great solutions.
• Ensure full visibility, error reporting, and monitoring of high-performing backend services.
• Participate in Agile software development including daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and team retrospectives.
• Write performant raw SQL to power complex queries, reports, and data workflows.
• Collaborate closely with product and design to shape problem statements, refine requirements, and propose pragmatic technical solutions when specs are incomplete or ambiguous.
• Own projects end‑to‑end: architecture, implementation, self‑QA, rollout, monitoring, and iteration based on customer and stakeholder feedback.
• Hold a high bar for quality: write clear, maintainable code, comprehensive tests, and robust monitoring/alerting where appropriate.
• Contribute to improving our engineering practices, tooling, and standards, especially around data correctness, reporting, and reliability.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of industry experience building and developing backend applications with a lean towards fullstack capabilities.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree (preferably a Computer Science degree or equivalent experience).
• Proficiency in any modern object-oriented programming language (e.g., Java, Kotlin, Go, Scala, Python).
• Experience with JavaScript/TypeScript and supporting libraries (e.g., React, Node).
• Experience crafting and implementing highly scalable and performant RESTful micro-services.
• Fluency in at least one database technology (e.g., RDBMS like Postgres and/or NoSQL like DynamoDB).
• Familiarity with cloud architecture patterns and hands-on experience with public cloud offerings (AWS preferred).
• A passion for collaboration and strong interpersonal and communication skills.

Benefits

• Atlassian offers a wide range of perks and benefits designed to support you, your family and to help you engage with your local community.
• Our offerings include health and wellbeing resources, paid volunteer days, and so much more.
