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.
This is a remote role and with a sufficient timezone overlap with the team, we're able to hire eligible candidates for this role from any location in Australia and New Zealand providing you have eligible working rights.
