Atlassian is continuing to hire with all interviewing and on-boarding done virtually due to COVID-19. All new and existing Atlassians will continue to work from home until it’s safe to return to our offices. When our offices re-open, every Atlassian will have the choice to work from an office or from home.

Join Atlassian as an intern and spend your summer with us having a direct impact on how millions of users collaborate and use software. The most amazing thinkers—like NASA rocket scientists and Tesla engineers—are coming to us for solutions. We’re in the business of developing software to help teams everywhere get amazing ideas on the ground and into the world. Sound like an exciting place to start your career? Here you'll be encouraged to use your imagination and try new things. You'll be guided (as we are) by our core values, and you'll be supported by some of the best minds in tech. We want you to have everything you need to do amazing work from the get-go.

You love to innovate and to build your dreams. Ambitious and driven, you are excited about the opportunity to work with smart people on complex challenges. You’re a natural teammate, inquisitive and enjoy dissecting and tackling hard problems (the more challenging the better). You have a great foundation in computer science and awesome skills in writing software with minimal bugs. Whilst passionate about your work and delivering amazing quality, you’re still able to go fast, which means killer instincts when it comes to the workload and using your time wisely.

You’ll learn a lot, but you’ll also need to be able to stand up for your own ideas when the time comes.

Apply for our Summer 2021 Intern Program and start an awesome career!

More about our team
You’ll be joining a team that is smart and very direct. We challenge each other constantly to improve our work, learn, and ask hard questions. We're dedicated to agile methodology and are big believers in ‘lean’ (which means we don’t do documentation for documentation's sake). We know the importance of validating assumptions about users and use various types of testing to figure out whether we're right (or wrong). Our bottom line is improving our user’s experience—no matter what.

On your first day, we'll expect you to:

  • Be currently enrolled in a full-time degree program and returning to the program after the completion of the internship, graduating by June 2022
  • Have experience with Java, Python, C, C++, or other related object-oriented programming language
  • Be able to commit to a full-time (40hrs / week)
  • It’s great, but not required, if you:

  • Have a real passion for software engineering, as demonstrated by previous internships, work experience, projects, or publications

  • Are familiar with the application of common design patterns
