Overview

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.

The Role:

We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer for the Internal Data Platform team, reporting to the team’s Senior Engineering Manager. This role suits candidates with experience building data platforms at scale and a passion for solving complex analytical problems with modern technologies.

You will have the chance to build a petabyte-scale data lake using vendor, open-source and custom-built technologies. You will collaborate with a diverse team of backend engineers to serve stakeholders ranging from data engineers and data scientists to product managers and senior leadership.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop and own the delivery of high-quality data platform and software services to support a petabyte-scale data lake.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, senior engineers and architects across multiple disciplines to discuss, design and ship new features.

• Help maintain high code quality through peer reviews and by defining and establishing coding standards, guidelines and best practices within the team.

• Drive improvements in operational excellence, including security, reliability, availability, performance, procedures and processes.

• Use a data-driven approach to inform decisions and design technical solutions.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in a software engineering role, preferably in the data platform domain.

• A bachelor's or master's degree in computer science or a related discipline.

• Expertise in solving complex distributed systems problems.

• Experience building applications in one or more of the following languages: Kotlin, Scala, Java or Python.

• Strong knowledge of AWS or GCP services.

• Familiarity with cloud architecture patterns and the engineering practices needed to build high-quality, performant, scalable, reliable and highly available software.
