Role
Who you are
- Master and above degree in a quantitative subject (Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Operations Research, or relevant work experience)
- 5+ years of related industry experience in the machine learning domain
- Expertise in Python with and the ability to write performant production-quality code, familiarity with SQL, knowledge of Spark and cloud data environments (e.g. AWS, Databricks)
- Experience building and scaling machine learning models in business applications using large amounts of data
- Experience building NLP related applications

- Agile development mindset, appreciating the benefit of constant iteration and improvement
What the job involves
- As a Principal Machine Learning Scientist, you will lead the development of advanced machine learning algorithms, collaborating with business partners, engineering, and analytics teams to personalize the customer buyer journey across several touch points which include paid ads, SEO content, web pages and in-product experiences
- You will lead Generative AI projects aimed at improving customer conversion funnels, streamlining content and creative creation processes, and developing self-serve tooling to empower Atlassian with valuable data insights
- Explain data science concepts to non-technical, diverse audiences and create a compelling story
- Be a tech lead for more junior Machine Learning Scientists, providing technical guidance
Our take
Atlassian creates software products for developers and project managers to help teams work together more efficiently. Since its founding in 2002, the global company has built up a strong suite of high-performing products including Jira, Trello, and Confluence.
Whilst their focus has predominantly been on software team management, products like Trello mark a shift in strategy for Atlassian, who intend to expand their coverage to other sectors. It is a smart move: with companies increasingly operating globally, the ability to coordinate projects from a common hub is more useful than ever. This is further compounded by the shift to remote workforces over the early 2020s.
Atlassian plans to further enhance the user experience of its products by minimizing friction in its connecting apps, meaning that product integration will be easier for its customers. Atlassian continues to perform strongly financially, and with its products playing a key role in two major fields - Agile and DevOps - they look set to remain an integral and successful market leader as the industry develops.
