Backend Software Engineer

Gdańsk, Poland / Remote

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. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.

To help our teams work together effectively, this role is fully remote but requires you to be located in Poland.

We're looking for a Backend Software Engineer to join our team who is passionately focused on delivering creative improvements for our engineering teams.

Your future team

To become a 100-year company, we need a world-class engineering organization of empowered teams with the tools and infrastructure to do the best work of their careers. As part of a unified R&D team, Engineering is prioritizing key initiatives that support our customers in moving to cloud while simultaneously continuing to bring the most value to our customers through investments across our core product suite including Jira, Confluence, Trello, and Bitbucket. We're looking for people who want to write the future and believe we can accomplish much more together.
