Description
Job Summary The Atlassian User Interface (AUI) library is a cornerstone of Atlassian's success. It implements a design language, layouts and components that are followed by everyone in the company, and used everywhere. We are looking for a talented individual to continue this journey and lead the AUI team to the next level of design and engineering excellence. This diverse position will provide technical leadership and mentorship through pairing, daily stand-ups, code reviews and ongoing support. You'll work closely with developers, product managers and designers to shape our products. You’ll ensure that commitments stay on track, remove any roadblocks, and facilitate timely decision-making. You’ll also help the team evaluate the size and shape of features and the impact of trade offs - to reach the perfect balance between attention to detail and getting stuff shipped. This role meets with team members one-on-one to foster growth and help developers reach their goals. A critical feature of this role is the ability to collaborate with other teams from all products and services across Atlassian. You'll be exchange expertise and discussing requirements from multiple locations, time zones and partners.   More about you You’re a pro at delivering the polish our customers expect. You probably have a deep understanding of existing front end architecture, a background in creating dynamic user experiences, and are familiar with working with designers and data driven development to evolve optimised front end architecture from those metrics. We’d love if you have knowledge and specialization in Javascript, HTML5, CSS, Agile development, and a strong interest in Open Source technology. A Team Lead is a natural born leader who has an innate desire to mentor developers and provide hands-on technical leadership to small (4-6 person) teams. You also probably have the project management chops to slice and dice problems that can be worked on by several people, track work status across teams with ease, and creatively solve problems when it’s needed most. In this role, staying on top of new technology is a must. You'll need to work with other front end teams as we adopt new technology - be it web components, es6, or whatever may come next.   More about this team   In one of our team off-sites, we attended 'Circus Training' where we learned to juggle and fly on a trapeze. It was intimidating for some of us, but we wanted to push ourselves outside of our comfort zone and not be afraid to fail. We are constantly growing, learning, adapting and trying new things. You’ll be joining a team that is crazy smart and very direct. We challenge each other constantly to improve our work and ask hard questions. We're dedicated to agile methodology and big believers in 'lean', which means we don’t do documentation for documentation's sake. We also know all too well the importance of validating assumptions about users and use various types of testing to prove ourselves right (or wrong). It’s all about improving our user’s experience—no matter who or where it is.   More about the perks Our offices are open, highly collaborative and yes, fun! To support you at work (and play) we offer some killer perks: ample time off to relax and recharge, five paid volunteer days a year for your favorite cause, plenty of free food and drinks, ergonomic workstations with Aeron chairs, 20% work time for your passion projects, unique ShipIt days, a company paid trip after five years, and more.   More about Atlassian Software is changing the world, and we’re at the center of it all. With more than 35,000 global customers (including 85 of the Fortune 100) and a highly disruptive business model, we’re advancing the art of team collaboration with products like JIRA, Confluence and HipChat–and we’re just getting started. Driven by honest values, an amazing culture, and consistent revenue growth, we’re out to unleash the potential of every team. From Amsterdam and Austin to Sydney and San Francisco, we’re looking for people who are powered by passion and eager to do the best work of their lives in a highly autonomous yet collaborative, no B.S. environment. Atlassian. Powered by You.   But wait, there’s more See what it'll be like to work in our Engineering teams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lP3QbqY8Pyc
