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.


Are you an analytics champion with a deep toolset who thrives on helping business partners strategize, implement and measure data-driven initiatives? Do you relish the opportunity to dive headfirst into vast, high-impact projects and make foundational contributions across analytics, strategy and operations? If so, this role is for you!


As a Principal Data Scientist on our Customer Support Services team, you will partner closely with key business leads, focus on some of the most exciting challenges Atlassian faces.

Some examples of what you'll be doing:

  • Develop strong collaborative partnerships with business and operations leaders
  • Use compelling data, deep business acumen and exceptional communication to drive business strategy and execution
  • Identify business challenges, performance bottlenecks and growth opportunities
  • Conduct insightful analyses on major trends, thinking 3 steps ahead to guide emerging strategy
  • Propose rapid experiments to test the effect of new strategies or initiatives, and iterate quickly
  • Confirm the impact of changes, and recommend a course forward using A/B testing methodology
  • Recast the the underlying engine for how work is allocated and addressed by our entire support organization.

Some skills and tools you'll use are

  • Analytics: Statistics, data distributions, summary/aggregation methods, operational metric development, ongoing OKR measurement
  • Tools: SQL, Tableau, R / Python, Excel, etc.

More about you


You've been working with data for 8+ years and have a BS degree in Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, Computer Science or other quantitative field.


You have experience in building transparent prioritization / recommendation engines and experience using data to influence operational teams.


You have strong communication skills (non-technical) and core tech skills


You are someone who actively likes to mentor / grow less experienced analysts.


You have strong business acumen, love driving strategy, making big changes, and influencing others. You have a history of driving measurable impact in close collaboration with operational colleagues.


You combine curiosity with critical thinking and good judgment, and like asking "why" to unravel a seemingly complex problem and get to the root cause.


You know how to gather, document, and interpret business requirements; always knowing how to ask the ‘why’ underpinning all requests.


You’re a senior ‘pillar of the team’, confident in your business acuity, analytics expertise and communication / coordination skills to push through ambiguity and upskill those around you.


When you encounter a problem you come up with multiple solutions, weigh the tradeoffs and efforts, identify the best path forward, and exercise good judgment to drive ahead.


To keep pace with our rapid growth and evolution you learn new things quickly. You can take an ambiguous assignment and move quickly to deliver iterative value. You use multiple tools and methods to find trends and correlations by mining data, and couple that with intuition and quick tests to prioritize how to drive forward on complicated problems.
