Atlassian is continuing to hire for all open roles with all interviewing and on-boarding done virtually due to COVID-19. Everyone new to the team, along with our current staff, will temporarily work from home until it is safe to return to our offices.

You’re someone who loves to hire engineering talent but you’ve seen enough Senior Technical Recruiter jobs to know you want to know a lot more about this role than the title.

That’s wonderful news. Your inquisitive mind is exactly what we're looking for in a new team member, and we’re very happy to share what life as a technical recruiter means at Atlassian in our collaborative team.

Our specialty engineering recruiting team has our values at is heart. Starting with “Play As A Team” you’ll find yourself with recruiting partners surrounding you. You’ll have established and new colleagues as peers who can share ideas and best practices, many of whom will have experience hiring for the roles you're now recruiting. You’ll also find partners in the business, from hiring managers, to leaders, to interviewers and engineers with stories to share. You’ll quickly find colleagues have a default position to help you deliver on your recruiting goals.

You are liking asking what is specialty engineering? At Atlassian our specialty engineering recruiting team focuses on hiring for a breadth of roles which require different experiences and skills to our typical back and front end roles. You'll be hiring for Network Engineers, Systems Engineers, Technical Program Managers, SREs, Architects, our Security Teams and other unique roles.

Our Specialty Engineering Recruiters work closely with our specialty teams to understand their work and build and engage candidates in the story of how they will influence Atlassian's future. We've found to deliver the best service for these teams our recruiters work 360 on the roles from engagement with stakeholders to sourcing and bringing candidates through the hiring process. You'll still work closely with other recruiting team members and will often have candidates shared with you from our core streams by recruiters and sourcers, but you'll be comfortable being accountable for your requisitions.


You’ll flex your influencing skills to run all the post-interview debriefs and negotiate offers with developers. You’re going to be busy! That’s awesome, though, because you thrive when you’re working at capacity across multiple streams and we’ll ensure you’re always supported and on that right side of busy. As a recruiting team, we want to make sure you have the time and room to grow as a professional.

We can’t wait to meet you.

On day one you'll

  • Be encouraged to learn. There's a lot of information coming your way that will help you develop a deep understanding of Atlassian and how to position that in the engineering community
  • Bring your experience of hiring a range of software engineering roles. As a Senior team member we’re looking for you to bring previous in-house experience of full life cycle technical recruiting. That will likely have been gained in a high growth software product company where change is a constant theme

  • Be keen to make an impact, get your first screens and interviews booked, and calibrate as quickly as possible to make hires for our engaged engineering community

  • Want you to use our tools; we work with Lever as an ATS and LinkedIn Recruiter. Naturally, you'll spend plenty of time in Trello and Confluence
  • More about our benefits
