Atlassian

Site Reliability Engineer (Jira Cloud)

Sydney, Australia
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.

We are looking for a reliability engineer who is passionate about scaling Cloud services to join our growing Sydney office. An ideal candidate is someone who is eager to learn new things, keeps on top of industry trends (particularly those related to reliability) and loves to share their knowledge with others. Someone who thrives on working with a diverse set of partners, who can articulate the business impact of a problem and can also dive deep into the technical solution.
