Responsibilities

  • Lead and grow a team of software engineers responsible for building and maintaining the large-scale ingestion infrastructure powering Atlassian’s 50+ third-party SaaS connectors.
  • Define and drive the technical vision for scalable, reliable, and secure data ingestion, ensuring the system can handle hundreds of millions of entities daily across heterogeneous apps and tenants.
  • Partner closely with product, platform, and other Central AI teams (e.g., Search, TWG, FDS, Identity) to align on priorities, architecture, and long-term roadmap.
  • Establish and enforce best practices in software development, observability, performance optimization, and operational excellence for ingestion services.
  • Mentor and develop engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence, ownership, and collaboration while ensuring career growth opportunities.
  • Drive execution through clear planning, prioritization, and resource allocation to balance new feature delivery with platform stability and reliability.
  • Anticipate and mitigate risks in large-scale ingestion (e.g., connector failures, tenant heterogeneity, evolving third-party APIs) to ensure robust service delivery.

Qualifications
  • Proven experience leading and managing high-performing engineering teams, preferably in large-scale distributed systems or data-intensive platforms.
  • Strong technical background in backend systems, APIs, data ingestion pipelines, or infrastructure at scale, with the ability to dive into technical discussions and guide architectural decisions.
  • Excellent organizational and project management skills, with a track record of delivering complex projects involving cross-team and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Ability to mentor, coach, and grow engineers of varying levels, fostering a culture of technical excellence, accountability, and collaboration.
  • Strong problem-solving and decision-making skills, with the ability to balance technical trade-offs, manage risks, and align teams toward long-term goals.
  • Effective communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to clearly articulate vision, priorities, and technical context to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Compensation
At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. To support this goal, the baseline of our range is higher than that of the typical market range, but in turn we expect to hire most candidates near this baseline. Base pay within the range is ultimately determined by a candidate's skills, expertise, or experience. In the United States, we have three geographic pay zones. For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are:
Zone A: $206,100 - $269,075
Zone B: $186,300 - $243,225
Zone C: $171,900 - $224,425
This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity.
