Senior Systems Engineer - Kubernetes Infrastructure

Working at Atlassian
Atlassians can choose where they work - whether in an office, from home, or a combination of the two. 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.
To help our teams work together effectively, this role is fully remote, but requires you to be located in (GMT+10) AEST.
Atlassian is looking for a Senior Systems Engineer who is passionate about building scalable cloud platforms. You will be joining a high-impact team tasked with building infrastructure and services that manage and scale our Kubernetes platform.
Your future team
To become a 100-year company, we need a world-class engineering organisation made up of empowered teams who have the tools and infrastructure to do the best work of their careers.
As part of a unified R&D team, Engineering is prioritising key initiatives which support our customers in moving to cloud while simultaneously continuing to bring the most value to our customers through investments across our core product suite - including Jira, Confluence, Trello, and Bitbucket.
We're looking for people who want to write the future and who believe that we can accomplish so much more together.
In this role, you will:

• Design, implement, and maintain Kubernetes clusters for multiple workloads, applications or services.
• Monitor and improve the performance of Kubernetes clusters to ensure high availability and scalability.
• Troubleshoot issues related to Kubernetes deployments, networking, and resource management.
• Implement best practices for security and compliance within Kubernetes environments.
• Automate routine tasks and processes.
• Participate in on-call rotations and provide support for incidents related to Kubernetes infrastructure.
• Mentor junior team members and contribute to knowledge sharing within the team.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of infrastructure-as-code practices and CI/CD pipelines.

Your background:

• 5+ years experience building and developing infrastructure and systems
• Experience with container and orchestration technologies, specifically Kubernetes, Docker or ContainerD. (2+ years)
• Designing and delivering AWS cloud-native infrastructure solutions (3+ years).
• Experience with one or more relevant languages such as GoLang, or Python
• Experience with automation and Infrastructure-as-code projects and tooling (e.g. Ansible, Terraform)
• Experience in observability solution (e.g. SignalFX, Splunk)
• Deep experience managing and troubleshooting Linux servers
• Practical knowledge of agile software development methodologies (e.g., Kanban, scrum)
• Experience with information security systems would be a huge bonus (e.g. vulnerability scanning, OSQuery, etc.)
