Job description
Atlassian is hiring a Software Engineer — a full-time, remote role. Apply directly on Atlassian's careers page below.
Build & operate features and services for ingesting third-party data — owning features from design through production.
Deliver production-quality code in Java/Spring Boot backed, Kafka/streaming event bus, and DynamoDB-style entity stores, with strong automated test coverage.
Participate in the on-call rotation — respond to incidents, execute and improve runbooks, triage ingestion failures, and handle DLQ cleanup and replay.
Contribute to design discussions and reviews — write and review ADRs/RFCs, participate in the weekly architecture sync, and make sound trade-offs on schema changes, and pipeline optimazations.
Ensure permission-awareness and data quality — uphold the invariant that search results and graph entities respect access controls end-to-end.
Monitor and improve operational health — build dashboards and alerting, optimize throughput, and troubleshoot performance/scaling issues in thrid-party data storage.
Collaborate cross-team with upstream and adjacent teams to land features that span domain boundaries.
Document your work — keep runbooks, design docs, and knowledge-share material current so the team scales its knowledge, not just its code.
Required
3+ years of professional software engineering experience building and operating backend services in production.
Strong proficiency in a JVM language (Java preferred) and a modern framework (Spring Boot or equivalent).
Solid grasp of distributed systems fundamentals — data consistency, event-driven/CDC pipelines, message queues, and idempotency.
Comfort with cloud infrastructure (AWS), containerization, and CI/CD pipelines.
Demonstrated ownership: has driven features from design to production with automated testing, monitoring, and on-call support.
Clear written and verbal communication; can author design docs and collaborate across teams.
Nice to have
Experience with streaming platforms (Kafka, Kinesis, or an internal event bus) and stream-processing (Flink).
Exposure to permission/ACL propagation, multi-tenancy, or data-residency/region-routing concerns.
Prior work integrating third-party data sources (GitHub, Slack, Google Drive) or building connector/ingestion frameworks.
Experience operating high-throughput, low-latency systems at scale with strong observability practices.
