You will be an individual contributor reporting to the Senior Director, Transformation and Scale, who in turn reports to Atlassian's Deputy General Counsel, Head of Commercial.
On Transformation and Scale, we believe in putting the customer and our clients first, making smart, risk-based decisions, and collaborating as a team.

Successful teammates bring a desire to understand Atlassian products and a passion for innovation.
What you'll do
  • Draft, negotiate and advise on partner agreements and transactions
  • Support our Partners & Alliances organization in developing programs, policies and offerings, advising on complex legal and business issues
  • Develop and implement strategy for effectively scaling your support of the Partners & Alliances organization
  • Engage with teammates on other key Transformation and Scale and Commercial Legal initiatives, like contract drafting and playbooks, including through use of AI
  • Take a collaboration-first mindset, understanding that the best work product comes from considering multiple viewpoints and improving together
  • Learn and use with Atlassian products, both to understand Atlassian's business and collaborate with peers and stakeholders

Your background
  • 7+ years practicing law
  • Juris Doctor and license to practice law in a US jurisdiction
  • In-house experience at a technology company, B2B SaaS preferred
  • A knack for distilling complex concepts into clear language and pragmatic solutions, both in contracts and in communication
  • Demonstrated success supporting a global partner organization
  • Demonstrated success in a dynamic, fast-paced and matrixed organization
  • Demonstrated growth mindset

Compensation
At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. To support this goal, the baseline of our range is higher than that of the typical market range, but in turn we expect to hire most candidates near this baseline. Base pay within the range is ultimately determined by a candidate's skills, expertise, or experience.

Zone A: $225,000 - $293,750

This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity.
