Senior Product Security Engineer

Seattle, WA / 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. We can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.

The Product Security team is responsible for making sure Atlassian products and services are safe and secure. We are looking for a Senior Product Security Engineer who thrives on working with development teams to secure their products across the entire software development lifecycle.

Your responsibilities will include working to improve our vulnerability management program, reviewing our products' security posture, defining security best practices, and finding ways to empower engineering teams to build secure software by default. You must have a strong ability to work with colleagues to understand our products and then come up with ways to improve existing security infrastructure.

Since we work closely with our product engineering teams, the ability to read and understand code is very important. Our products are built using a number of different languages but Java, Go, and Python are the most common.

On your first day, we'll expect you to have:

  • 5+ years demonstrated expertise and experience working in security-focused roles
  • Experience with application security, especially web applications
  • Experience in cloud security architecture and infrastructure
  • Experience coding in Java, Python, or Go, and at least one scripting language
  • An ability to reason about security decisions
  • Experience leading projects from start to finish and mentoring other security practitioners
  • An ability to communicate ideas clearly and effectively to engineers who know way more than you about their code

It's great, but not required, if you have:

  • Published contributions to the security community
  • Presentation experience at industry events
  • Experience working with compliance, privacy, IT, networking or related functions

Compensation

At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. To support this goal, the baseline of our range is higher than that of the typical market range, but in turn we expect to hire most candidates near this baseline. Base pay within the range is ultimately determined by a candidate's skills, expertise, or experience. In the United States, we have three geographic pay zones. For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are:

Zone A: $190,400 - $253,900

Zone B: $171,400 - $228,500

Zone C: $158,100 - $210,800

This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity.
