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, every Atlassian will have the choice to work from an office or from home.

As an experienced Program Manager on the Confluence team, you are someone who thrives in making order out of chaos. You can take new strategic plans and work towards executing on them. You will drive completion of cross-organization, top company priority projects, and communicate effectively with R&D teams internal to Confluence and external throughout the rest of the company. To be successful in this role you will be able to dive deep into the technical details across every aspect of the relevant Confluence programs in order to anticipate blockers before they happen. You will need to deeply understand Confluence's priorities, relate them to company level business goals. You are a center of team spirit, and you craft and implement pathways to up-level the team. Your team’s success is instrumental for Atlassian to hit its business goals and OKRs. Does this sound exciting to you? Then you might be the person we're looking for.

In this role, you'll get to:

• Work across R&D teams for a smooth execution of our strategy
• Lead our teams to plan, set goals, execute, and learn
• Run complex, strategic projects (ranging from technical delivery and analytical deep dives to operational efficiencies)
• Design and take charge of meaningful dashboards and readouts for key executives
• Champion and cultivate cross-team relationships to organize and manage dependencies
• Coordinate work “on the team” such as team health exercises, decision-making plays, and org size/shape assessment. Lead strategic off-sites and associated planning rituals{Insert Job Description bullets here}

About you:

• You are an excellent collaborator and communicator that can expertly inspire change across teams
• You thrive in ambiguous, complex, challenging and/or changing environments
• You can vigilantly prioritize
• You are a self-starter who can run on your own while keeping others in the know
• You are attentive to detail and meticulously organized

On your first day, we'll expect you to have:

• 7+ years of relevant professional experience working with product, engineering, design and related functions
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Business, Computer Science or related field (or equivalent experience)
• Value a smooth operation and have experience in diagnosing pain points for teams, moving them to 'good', and committing to ensuring they get to 'great'

It's great, but not required if you have:

• Experience working on programs with web and mobile applications, microservices and relational and non-relational databases
• Experience working with remote, global, and cross-functional teams and matrix organizations, and an understanding of SaaS business models and enterprise sales
