Atlassian is looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to join our Search & Intelligence organization. We build AI-native experiences, agentic systems, models, evaluation frameworks, and data platforms that power Atlassian's AI products.
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.
Your role and impact
You will develop and productionize machine learning systems for search, retrieval, ranking, conversational experiences, and AI agents. You will own projects across the ML lifecycle, from problem definition and data development through experimentation, evaluation, deployment, and continuous improvement.
A key part of this role is making evaluation a first-class part of AI development. You will help define quality, build evaluation datasets and benchmarks, analyze model behavior, and use results to guide product and engineering decisions.
You will collaborate with product managers, software engineers, data scientists, research scientists, and platform teams. You will independently solve complex problems, contribute to technical direction, and mentor other engineers.
What you'll do
At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. We follow consistent hiring practices and account for each candidate's skills, knowledge, and experience when setting base pay within the range.
