About Atlassian
What is Atlassian?
Atlassian Corporation (NASDAQ: TEAM) is an Australian software company founded in 2002 by Mike Cannon-Brookes and Scott Farquhar in Sydney. Atlassian makes collaboration, productivity, and developer-tool software — Jira (work tracking), Confluence (wiki + docs), Trello (kanban), Bitbucket (source control), Atlassian Intelligence (AI features across the suite), and recently Loom (async video, acquired 2023). The company serves over 280,000 customers globally.
Where will I work?
Atlassian operates a "Team Anywhere" distributed-by-design model — most roles can be performed from anywhere in countries where Atlassian has a legal entity. Major hubs in Sydney (HQ), Mountain View CA, Austin TX, San Francisco, Amsterdam, Bengaluru, Gdansk, Tokyo and Yokohama. Office attendance is voluntary for most roles; the company emphasises asynchronous collaboration over location.
What is the team like?
Around 13,000 employees globally across product, engineering, design, marketing, sales, customer success, finance, legal and operations. Atlassian was recognised by WORK180 as an Endorsed Employer for its inclusive parental-leave and family-friendly policies.
Work-Life Balance — Global Parental Leave (the headline benefit)
Atlassian provides 26 weeks of fully paid leave for birthing parents and 20 weeks of fully paid leave for non-birthing parents — applied consistently globally, including in markets where local statutory leave is far below this level (the US in particular). The policy applies to all paths to parenthood (birth, adoption, surrogacy, foster care) regardless of gender. New parents can use flexible onboarding when returning from leave, and all employees are eligible to work remotely or reduce hours to accommodate family priorities.
