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. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.

This is a remote position. To help our teams work together effectively, this role requires you to be located in the west coast of the United States.

Your Future Team

We’re looking for a senior machine learning engineering manager to join our Central AI team and lead a group of talented engineers who are responsible for creating and deploying state-of-the-art machine learning models and algorithms. You will report directly to the head of engineering and work closely with the Central AI leadership team to define and execute the vision and strategy for AI modeling training and evaluation, as well as the cutting edge machine learning algorithms development.
