Job Description
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.
Your future team

We’re looking for an attorney ready to guide the business on issues at the intersection of customer needs, legal risk, and business objectives.

Your background
8 + years of experience in Product Counsel at a software company, ideally in the B2B SaaS space.
Passion for building programs from scratch – as a new team we’re looking for builders.
