Information is a powerful and essential element of the user experience. If that statement makes your eyes light up, you might be who we're looking for.

 

At Atlassian, we look at the way we communicate technical information to our customers as an end-to-end journey. This journey begins with our customers and their needs, continues through the discovery and purchasing process to learning our products and ends with just enough content to guide our customers or solve their problems. We know that good writing and software are not always considered synonymous, and we're on a mission to change that.

 

This isn't a traditional technical writing role. As part of the Design Team, you'll be empowered to experiment with a variety of approaches to information in the website, UI, documentation, supporting materials, and anywhere else our customers experience information. We are also constantly working to find better ways to measure what makes an information experience successful. You'll be using these methods (perhaps suggesting new methods we've not thought of) to constantly challenge ourselves and improve our craft.

 

This particular role is for an embedded Content Designer on a newly created team who have been given mandate that will impact all customers in the way they use our products. If you are looking for a role that can have a big impact, this is it.

This job is for someone who thinks bigger than traditional software documentation. You can explain complex features within tiny amounts of product real estate and communicate value in a compelling, clear, and effective way.

We're looking for candidates who love to work with teams to ensure they're providing a great information experience. Someone who's ready to not only own the information experience for their customer journey, but also contribute to and help drive projects that benefit the larger documentation community here at Atlassian.

We believe information is critical to any user experience. When you join Atlassian as a Content Designer, you become part of the Atlassian Design organisation. Content design includes everything needed to understand, support, market, and use that product. You won't own all the content, but you'll help make sure the stories we tell are consistent and create a great experience for our customers.

 

Along with your resume, send or point us to an example of great instructional or learning content that you've created.

Whether you work in an office or a distributed team, Atlassian is highly collaborative and yes, fun! To support you at work (and play) we offer some fantastic perks: ample time off to relax and recharge, flexible working options, five paid volunteer days a year for your favourite cause, an annual allowance to support your learning & growth, unique ShipIt days, a company paid trip after five years and lots more.

Creating software that empowers everyone from small startups to the who’s who of tech is why we’re here. We build tools like Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, and Trello to help teams across the world become more nimble, creative, and aligned—collaboration is the heart of every product we dream of at Atlassian. From Amsterdam and Austin, to Sydney and San Francisco, we’re looking for people who want to write the future and who believe that we can accomplish so much more together than apart. At Atlassian, we’re committed to an environment where everyone has the autonomy and freedom to thrive, as well as the support of like-minded colleagues who are motivated by a common goal to: Unleash the potential of every team.

We believe that the unique contributions of all Atlassians is the driver of our success. To make sure that our products and culture continue to incorporate everyone's perspectives and experience we never discriminate on the basis of race, religion, national origin, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, or marital, veteran, or disability status.
