Our take
The Adaptavist Group is a leading player in the Atlassian ecosystem, which provides software for software developers. Adaptavist helps companies develop modern, adaptive approaches to development, deployment, and application lifecycle management to augment the Atlassian experience.
Back in the mid-noughties, The Adaptavist Group firmly established itself as a key player in helping companies utilise Atlassian's industry-leading tools. Adaptavist has subsequently developed similar optimisation products and tools for Amazon Web Services, GitHub and Monday, as well as consultancy services for companies wanting to maximise their use of these platforms. Adaptavist’s reach is global, and it was named Atlassian's Partner of the Year 2024. It services over 75% of the Fortune 500.
The Adaptavist Group is leveraging the global boom in software development. Its strategic expansion into the growing DevSecOps market, for example, through partnering with Sonatype, sees it unlock involvement in an industry that reached a $6.5 billion valuation by 2025. With this expansionist approach, The Adaptavist Group has aligned many leading brands under its umbrella and has been consistent in its launch of tools. Its reputation as a leading industry player propels a dynamic and hugely lucrative upward trajectory.

- We know that, historically, the tech sector has felt out of reach or even unwelcoming to many people. At The Adaptavist Group, we're committed to changing that. It's our people who make our success, and we believe that a diverse community—one where everyone feels respected, included, and valued—makes us stronger, more innovative, and more creative as a whole.
- We have created an environment that accommodates and supports people from all backgrounds, offering flexible ways of working and workplace benefits that are genuinely helpful, as well as keeping an open dialogue and welcoming feedback on these topics.
- Whether you've worked in tech for your whole career or this is a brand new direction for you, your experience and skills are valuable to us. We need fresh perspectives, forward thinkers, and problem solvers. We see the whole person, and we hire people who we believe will make a positive contribution to our community.
- We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, and particularly those who are often underrepresented in our industry, such as women and people of colour.
- We want to level the playing field for all those that interview with us. That's why we have created guidance on our careers page on what to expect as part of our interview process, typical questions we may ask you, and when and where to use AI as part of your application.
