PD, Platform Engineering Team Lead
Working at Atlassian
Atlassian can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity. Assuming you have eligible working rights and a sufficient time zone overlap with your team, you can choose to work remotely or return to an office as they reopen (unless it's necessary for your role to be performed in the office). Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.
Is leadership in your DNA? Make your mark as a manager for our Site Reliability Engineers who craft and maintain services for Atlassians everywhere. This diverse position will provide technical leadership and mentorship through pairing, daily stand-ups, project management and ongoing support. You'll ensure that commitments stay on track, remove any roadblocks, and facilitate timely decision-making. You'll also collaborate with other teams across Atlassian to exchange expertise and ensure project and operational support is coordination and handled smoothly.
More about you
- The best person for this role is someone that has a collaborative spirit - in our world, it's not about being a hero and having all the answers, it's about sometimes saying "I don't know" and working on finding solutions rather than starting with an assumption.

- On your first day, we will expect you to have:
- 5+ years of experience managing a team of site reliability engineers responsible for mission critical services
- A real passion for problem solving and an ability to find technical solutions to business problems

- Understanding of Linux systems (Bash and Python experience is a desirable)
- Experience with managing and supporting core Atlassian products, such as Jira and Confluence
- Building, automating, and maintaining infrastructure in Amazon Web Services
- It is great, but not required, if you have:
- Experience with development frameworks and languages
- Exposure to and maintenance of configuration management and orchestration tools such as Ansible and Puppet
- Understanding of ITIL frameworks for incident and problem management
