Working at Atlassian

Atlassians can choose where they work – whether in an office, from home, or a combination of the two. That way, Atlassians have more control over supporting their family, personal goals, and other priorities. We can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity.

To help our teams work together effectively, this role requires you to be located in India. You will work closely with engineering teams in India and Australia and coordinate strategy, priorities, and execution with leadership in the United States.

Atlassian’s Trusted Data Platform (TDP) provides secure, reliable, and scalable data capabilities used by Atlassian product and platform teams. It helps those teams manage persistent customer data while meeting complex enterprise requirements, including data residency, encryption, regulatory compliance, backup and recovery, and operation across multiple cloud environments.

TDP Insights provides the intelligence layer for the Trusted Data Platform. It helps teams understand where data lives, how it moves, what it costs, how reliably it operates, and how customers use TDP services. By transforming high-volume platform telemetry into actionable insights, it supports better decisions about reliability, capacity, cost, compliance, recovery readiness, and developer experience.

Atlassian Data Resiliency (ADR) strengthens end-to-end recovery across TDP. It provides common backup and restore capabilities, recovery assurance, RPO and RTO evidence, validation, restore exercises, and consistent resiliency standards across TDP data platforms.

We are looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to lead the TDP Insights and ADR engineering team. This leader will be accountable for the team’s people, strategy, execution, and operational outcomes. They will partner with senior engineers, product and program leaders, storage and streaming teams, infrastructure teams, security specialists, and Atlassian product organizations to improve how Atlassian understands, protects, and recovers its data.

Success in this role means building a strong engineering organization, delivering trusted platform insights and recovery capabilities, and translating complex customer, reliability, and infrastructure requirements into a clear and executable roadmap.

Lead, coach, and develop engineers and senior technical leaders, establishing clear expectations and accountability.

Build an inclusive, high-performing team through effective hiring, onboarding, talent development, and succession planning.

Develop senior technical and leadership talent by delegating meaningful ownership to senior engineers and emerging leaders.

Establish operating practices that support good decisions, predictable execution, and continuous improvement.

Manage capacity across strategic investments, customer commitments, operational work, and technical debt.

Build an effective distributed-team operating model across India and Australia, with clear alignment and communication with leadership in the United States.

Strategy and execution

Establish clear ownership and decision-making responsibilities across TDP Insights, ADR, TDP data platforms, and partner teams.

Deliver actionable insights into platform health, customer adoption, cost, data movement, compliance, and recovery readiness.

Improve recovery confidence through common capabilities, clear standards, validation, and repeatable restore exercises.

Maintain clear visibility into customer and recovery commitments and intervene when delivery, reliability, or data-integrity risks threaten those outcomes.

Technical and platform leadership

Partner with senior technical leaders to establish architectural direction and make high-quality technical decisions.

Guide the evolution of large-scale telemetry, analytics, backup, restore, and recovery capabilities across multiple cloud providers and specialized operating environments.

Ensure designs account for scalability, data locality, security, compliance, data quality, migration safety, operability, and reversibility.

Establish technical and operational standards for data collection, processing, analytics, recovery validation, and integration with TDP data platforms.

Balance near-term delivery with platform simplification, lifecycle management, cloud portability, and reduction of operational burden.

Establish clear technical and operational contracts with storage, streaming, control-plane, infrastructure, and customer teams.

Cross-functional leadership and economics

Build trusted partnerships across product, engineering, security, compliance, reliability, infrastructure, FinOps, and customer-facing teams.
