Atlassian is continuing to hire with all interviewing and on-boarding done virtually due to COVID-19. All new and existing Atlassians will continue to work from home until it’s safe to return to our offices. When our offices re-open, we will provide the choice to work from home or return to work in an office unless a job requirement makes it necessary for a particular role to be performed at an Atlassian office.

Mike Cannon-Brookes and Scott Farquhar founded Atlassian in 2002. The pair met while studying at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia. They bootstrapped the company for several years, financing the startup with $10,000 credit card debt. Atlassian released its flagship product, Jira -- a project and issue tracker, in 2002. In 2004, it released Confluence, a team collaboration platform that allows users to work together on projects, co-create content, and share documents and other media assets. Today, Atlassian is a publicly-traded company, valued at over 25 Billion and serving over 135,000 enterprise customers.
