Job summary

Atlassian is seeking a Senior Manager to lead Government Cloud platform releases, driving end-to-end release components and governance. You will supervise a team of engineers, set strategy, and partner across engineering, product, QA, and security to ensure compliant, auditable releases.

You will own the go/no-go criteria, define readiness standards, and guide blameless post-release reviews while growing teamwork and process maturity across the organization.

Responsibilities

• Own the release process for Government releases: planning, branch and versioning strategy, release readiness, cutover, verification, and rollback.
• Run the release calendar and dependency map across teams; make the tradeoffs when timelines, quality signals, and commitments collide.
• Own go/no-go decisions and the criteria behind them. Define what "ready to ship" means, in writing, and hold the bar.
• Serve as the escalation point for release‑impacting incidents, including out‑of‑hours for major launches.
