Working at Atlassian

Atlassians can choose where they work whether in an office, from home, or a combination of the two.

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

This is primarily a remote position. With a sufficient timezone overlap with the team, we're able to hire eligible candidates for this role from any location on the east coast of Australia. Our office is in Sydney, but we offer flexibility to work remotely. Whatever your preference - working from home, an office, or in between - you can choose the place that's best for your work and your lifestyle.
