That way, Atlassians have more control over supporting their family, personal goals, and other priorities. We can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.
About the team
The Jira Design teams is responsible for transforming Jira into a modern work management solution for every team. Jira is the foundation for Atlassian's holistic view of modern, collaborative work.
What you'll need to bring
As a Lead Product Designer, your mission will be to deliver top-notch experiences. You'll do this by mentoring our awesome Jira design team, leading strategic design initiatives, and connecting multiple projects to a cohesive vision that makes Jira feel like it was designed by a single hand.
As a product designer at Atlassian, you'll:

  • Make a substantial impact at scale. We have more than 10M users worldwide-and teams (massive and small) depend on our software to do their work. As a designer involved in everything from ground-floor product strategy to UI implementation, your work will have an incredible customer impact.
  • You will have a great deal of ownership and autonomy across the entire design process; rather than designing individual features, you will define the end-to-end product experience.
  • Collaborate with some of the industry's smartest (and nicest) people. Daily, you'll work on a multidisciplinary product team, collaborating with Engineers, Product Managers, Content Designers, Researchers, Marketing Experts, and Analysts to advocate for the user experience in our products and ship high-quality work.
  • Be a true champion for our users. We take design seriously and are on a mission to become a world-class design organization. We want to make our customers love how easily our products help them.


You will bring:

  • 9+ years of professional product design experience, working at visual, UX and conceptual design altitudes
  • Experience designing complex or enterprise-level software,
  • The ability to drive a user-centered design process
  • Facilitation and cross-functional collaboration skills: you can demonstrate the ability to work with multiple teams, solicit and synthesize feedback, and facilitate design discussions
  • Openness to the iterative design process - constantly sketching, showing work in progress, validating with customers and data, iterating, shipping, learning, and growing
  • Experience conducting and applying customer research (together with our research team), including design thinking, prototyping, and conceptual modelling
  • A collaborative approach to building capabilities in tight partnership with customers - our customers are very engaged, and our designers speak with customers multiple times per week demoing prototypes, getting feedback on ideas, and gathering ideas for improvement during early access programs
  • The ability to define projects and measures of success, test your assumptions and outcomes, and incorporate feedback
  • Experience improving process and methodology to increase product quality, team velocity and customer empathy
