About the role

Senior Fullstack Software Engineer, DXEngineering | San Francisco, United States | Remote, RemoteAbout the RoleWe're looking for a senior full-stack engineer to support our DX team at Atlassian. Someone who's as comfortable diving into a Ruby on Rails codebase and raw SQL as they are crafting thoughtful, accessible UI in React and TailwindCSS. You'll work end-to-end on features: from shaping vague problem statements with product and design, to shipping high-quality code, to measuring impact and iterating quickly.
What You'll Do:
  • Build and ship features and capabilities daily in a highly scalable, cross-geo distributed environment.
  • Focus on backend-heavy fullstack development, building robust REST APIs while contributing to customer-facing React components.
  • Review code with best practices of readability, testing patterns, documentation, reliability, security, and performance considerations in mind.
  • Collaborate with other engineers, designers, and product managers to understand user pain points and iterate on great solutions.
  • Ensure full visibility, error reporting, and monitoring of high-performing backend services.
  • Participate in Agile software development including daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and team retrospectives.
  • Write performant raw SQL to power complex queries, reports, and data workflows.
  • Collaborate closely with product and design to shape problem statements, refine requirements, and propose pragmatic technical solutions when specs are incomplete or ambiguous.
  • Own projects end-to-end: architecture, implementation, self-QA, rollout, monitoring, and iteration based on customer and stakeholder feedback.
  • Hold a high bar for quality: write clear, maintainable code, comprehensive tests, and robust monitoring/alerting where appropriate.
  • Contribute to improving our engineering practices, tooling, and standards, especially around data correctness, reporting, and reliability.
  • At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. We follow consistent hiring practices and account for each candidate's skills, knowledge, and experience when setting base pay within the range.
  • This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity.
  • 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: $180,000 - $235,000 Zone B: $162,000 - $211,500 Zone C: $149,400 - $195,050
Your Background: 5+ years of industry experience building and developing backend applications with a lean towards fullstack capabilities. Bachelor's or Master's degree (preferably a Computer Science degree or equivalent experience).Proficiency in any modern object-oriented programming language (e.g., Java, Kotlin, Go, Scala, Python).Experience with JavaScript/TypeScript and supporting libraries (e.g., React, Node).Experience crafting and implementing highly scalable and performant RESTful micro-services. Fluency in at least one database technology (e.g., RDBMS like Postgres and/or NoSQL like DynamoDB).Familiarity with cloud architecture patterns and hands-on experience with public cloud offerings (AWS preferred).A passion for collaboration and strong interpersonal and communication skills.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
