As a Senior Product Security Manager, you will play a key role in driving and managing the security of Atlassian's products within Australia.

The ideal candidate will bring a strong background in product security, leadership, and a proven track record of managing security teams.
What you'll do

• Your responsibilities will include managing a team of security engineers who deliver security projects, undertake source code auditing, write automation, review designs, and identify ways to empower engineering teams to build secure products by default.
• You are interested in collaborating with colleagues to understand our products and enhance our existing security infrastructure.
• We build many of our own tools, so having an understanding of how to develop software is valuable. Most of the code we work with is in Java, Python, or Go.

Your background

• 3+ years working in security or related role
• 2+ years managing a team
• Experience with application security, especially web application security
• Experience in cloud security architecture and infrastructure
• Experience in data protection and privacy
• Experience coding in Java, Python, or Go, and at least one scripting language
• Experience reasoning about security decisions
• Experience leading projects from start to finish and mentoring other security practitioners
• Experience collaborating with 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

Responsibilities

1. Product Security Leadership: Collaborate to execute and drive aspects of the Product Security Strategy, ensuring alignment with global objectives and smooth integration into the product development lifecycle.
