Product Security Engineer

Atlassian can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity, assuming candidates have eligible working rights and a sufficient timezone overlap with their team. As our offices re-open, Atlassians can choose to work remotely or return to an office, unless it’s necessary for the role to be performed in the office. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.
The Product Security team is responsible for making sure Atlassian products and services are safe and secure. We are looking for an Application Security Engineer who thrives working with engineering teams to secure their products across the entire software development lifecycle.
Your responsibilities will include source code auditing, performing threat models, reviewing new features and architectural designs, and finding ways to empower engineering teams to build secure software by default. You must have a strong ability to work with colleagues to understand our products and then come up with ways to improve existing security infrastructure.
Since we work closely with our product engineering teams, the ability to read and understand code is very important. Our products are built using a number of different languages but Java, Go, and Python are the most common. As part of the focus on learning at Atlassian, you'll be able to spend up to 20% of your time on independent research.

ON YOUR FIRST DAY, WE'LL EXPECT YOU TO HAVE:

• 4+ years working in security
• Solid understanding of web application security
• Experience in cloud security architecture and infrastructure
• Experience coding in Java, Python, or Go, and at least one scripting language
• Able to reason about security decisions
• An ability to communicate ideas clearly and effectively to engineers who know way more than you about their code

IT'S GREAT, BUT NOT REQUIRED, IF YOU HAVE:

• Published contributions to the security community
• Presentation experience at industry events
• Experience working with compliance, privacy, IT, networking or related functions

More about our team :
We are a small focused group that is committed to protecting the security of our customers and of Atlassian itself. We work both independently and in collaboration with development teams as we assess and respond to security issues that might occur with new products and features.
