Build and maintain core infrastructure for developing, training, evaluating, deploying, and operating machine learning models and pipelines for Atlassian’s GenAI products. Solve complex software infrastructure and architecture challenges, lead engineers through technical projects from design to launch, and collaborate with internal teams and customers. The role involves large-scale distributed systems, data processing, cloud platforms, CI/CD, and machine learning lifecycle support.
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. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.
As a Senior ML System Engineer in the Rovo GenAI Platform team, you will build and maintain the core infrastructure to allow machine learning engineers and data scientists to develop, train, evaluate, deploy, and operate Machine Learning models and pipelines, and power the GenAI products in Atlassian. You will use your software development expertise to solve difficult problems, tackling complex infrastructure and architecture challenges.
You will have the opportunity to lead other engineers to drive involved projects from technical design to launch. You will also collaborate with other teams and internal customers to set expectations, gather input and communicate results.
Compensation
At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. To support this goal, the baseline of our range is higher than that of the typical market range, but in turn we expect to hire most candidates near this baseline. Base pay within the range is ultimately determined by a candidate's skills, expertise, or experience. In the United States, we have three geographic pay zones. For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are:
