About the Role

Atlassian is looking for an International Tax Senior Manager to join our Global Tax Team, reporting into our Head of US Tax Planning. In this pivotal role, you'll contribute to the global tax strategy that will empower the company as it navigates the ever-evolving global tax environment.

  • Manage the calculations and provide technical guidance on all US international tax matters, including but not limited to NCTI, FDDEI, BEAT, Subpart F, IRC Sections 986/987, and foreign tax credit.
  • Collaborate closely with cross functional teams and external advisors to assess tax implications of business activities, new initiatives and cash tax forecasting.
  • Support M&A projects through tax due diligence, evaluation of transaction structures, post-acquisition integration, and ongoing compliance management.
  • Monitor global tax developments, including OECD Pillar Two, digital services tax trends, and US legislative changes; assess impacts and communicate recommendations to leadership.
  • Drive process improvements, including automation opportunities, technology adoption, and scalable workflows to support a growing global footprint

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

  • CPA and/or JD
  • Master of Taxation or other advanced degree required.
  • Minimum 10 years working experience in a combination of Big 4 and corporate tax department with multinational operations.
  • Strong knowledge of US international tax laws and regulations (Subpart F, NCTI, FDDEI, BEAT, FTCs) and OECD/G20 frameworks.
  • Strong understanding of ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, including provision review, uncertain tax positions, and global tax reporting
  • Advanced Excel and analytical skills including experience developing forecasting models and using tax forecasting tools.
  • Curiosity and a proactive, hands-on approach to exploring new tools, processes, and technologies
  • An ownership mentality, strong communication skills, and the ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, high‑growth environment.
