Working at Atlassian

Atlassian can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity. Assuming you have eligible working rights and a sufficient time zone overlap with your team, you can choose to work remotely or return to an office as they reopen (unless it’s necessary for your role to be performed in the office). Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.

Are you a strategic design thinker who can simplify complex customer problems and get stuff done with an eye for quality? Do you have a passion for designing elegant solutions that are the right balance of innovative and familiar? We are looking for a senior product designer to drive the content creation experience for Confluence. This individual will work closely with our platform team to design and build experiences necessary to empower customers to create beautiful and engaging content.

You’re a born collaborator who listens carefully and communicates clearly.
You have a passion for driving solutions that balance customer needs.
You have a record of shipping quality experiences that will impress us and are quantifiable.
You are a consistent advocate for customers.
You can easily point to clear and meaningful customer pain acquired through user research.

In this role you'll get to:

Drive product design thinking and lead design work across a critical area of the Confluence experience.
Collaborate with the platform team, establish principles and champion the next phase of content creation.
With your cross-functional team, you will develop a keen understanding of our users and their needs–whether through user research, experimentation, workshopping, or sketching/visualization.
With this acquired knowledge, you'll craft experiences that will balance the existing customer needs with new innovative solutions that aim to simplify and delight.
Partner with product design, product management, engineering and marketing teams to define a user-centred approach to compliment the goals we are looking to achieve for Confluence.
Use your storytelling skills to facilitate cross-team collaboration, working with product teams and stakeholders across Atlassian.
Influence and shape the way our Confluence design team works and how we balance shipping with high-quality experiences.
Engage with Atlassian's close-knit design community.

On your first day we expect you to have:

10+ years of hands-on professional experience as a UX or Product Designer.
A track record of delivering outcomes where you've driven product direction.
Ability to lead and inspire others and build consensus with cross functional peers, key partners and executives across a business to influence a result.
Ability to inspire and mentor your more junior colleagues, sharing processes, skills and experience with others to help up-skill the entire team.
A mastery of your craft, validated through Conceptual Thinking & Modeling, User-centeredness and analysis, and Technical & Product Knowledge.
Strong facilitation and collaboration abilities, a flexible and friendly approach to working with teams, and the attitude to always strive for the best outcomes.
Strong executional skills and familiarity with tools such as Figma.

It's an added bonus if you have:

Experience with SaaS, or complex enterprise applications.
Used Confluence Cloud, Notion, Quip, Wordpress, or Coda with any kind of regularity.

Confluence is a team workspace where knowledge and collaboration meet. We’re building a team workspace where anyone can easily find the latest company information, create and share a project plan, and communicate across teams. We believe that offering tools and practices to support open teamwork is a critical component of fueling digital transformation and ultimately strengthening business agility.

You will be part of the larger Experience Group who’s charter is to empower teams to engage in meaningful collaboration across web and mobile devices in order to move work forward. We are looking for someone who deeply understands design processes and can craft detailed plans that are proportionate to the size and scale of problems to be solved.
