That way, Atlassians have more control over supporting their family, personal goals, and other priorities. This is a remote position.

We're looking for an Information Security Incident Commander to join our team, passionately focused on coordinating and leading response efforts to the incidents that most impact Atlassian and our customers.

  • You'll be part of the Incident Response Team and report to the Head of Incident Response.

This position is responsible for coordinating with all stakeholders, both technical and non-technical during an incident response effort, including but not limited to, various legal teams, product engineering, Crisis Communications, Support, Customers, and Risk & Compliance.
  • If you are passionate about improving security, trust & safety, have strong verbal and written communication skills, and can organize effectively under pressure, this may be a role for you!
