You will be leading and growing a team of TPMs.

As a member of the TPM team, you will also shape the TPM craft, which is still in a formation stage. We envision TPMs to have strong technical depth, ability to shape product strategy and drive its execution in close collaboration with stakeholders across numerous crafts and product areas.

  • Streamline the execution of the articulated roadmap. This will require scoping and execution of numerous programs, and assign the appropriate leaders for each of them.
  • Drive adoption/usage of your platform across Atlassian products.
  • While this list highlights the most common responsibilities, I want to emphasize the importance of the sense of ownership that you will have for your platform and products, programs, customer scenarios. This means that you will need to proactively identify any inhibitors, issues or opportunities, and proactively address them yourself or find the right owners to do so. The bottom line is that you are a true owner of your area and the buck stops with you.
