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.
At Atlassian, we're on a mission to unleash the potential of every team. As part of that mission, we're investing deeply in Generative AI - pioneering advanced modeling and rapid innovations that accelerate how teams work, discover, and create.
We're seeking a Senior Machine Learning Engineer (P50) to join our new GenAI Modeling & Innovation Forge in Singapore. You'll be part of a small, high-impact tiger team focused on advanced GenAI modeling, rapid prototyping, and applied research-building the next generation of AI-driven innovations across Atlassian.
What You'll Do
Build and Apply Advanced GenAI Models
  • Develop and fine-tune LLMs and embeddings for Atlassian's unique knowledge and enterprise data.
  • Implement retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), hybrid retrieval, and knowledge-grounded modeling approaches.
  • Work hands-on with modern frameworks, contributing directly to high-value prototypes and experiments.

Prototype and Experiment Quickly
  • Build proof-of-concept systems for GenAI-powered assistants, agentic workflows, and innovative user experiences.
  • Run experiments, collect feedback, and iterate fast to validate impact.
  • Design and implement evaluation methods for quality, groundedness, and user value.

Collaborate and Contribute
  • Work closely with peers across ML, engineering, and product teams to bring new ideas to life.
  • Share learnings, contribute to team best practices, and help establish the Forge as a hub of innovation.
  • Support transitioning successful prototypes into scalable, production-ready solutions.

What We're Looking For
Experience
  • Extensive experience (generally 5+ years) in ML systems engineering, backend engineering, or infrastructure roles.
  • Strong background in one or more of: LLMs, NLP, search/retrieval, embeddings, or applied ML.
  • Hands-on experience with at least one GenAI area: RAG pipelines, fine-tuning, hybrid retrieval, or orchestration frameworks.

Skills
  • Proficiency with modern ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face, LangChain, LlamaIndex).
  • Familiarity with vector databases (Weaviate, Pinecone, FAISS, etc.) and large-scale serving infra.
  • Strong coding skills (Python, backend engineering) and ability to move fast from idea to prototype.
  • Comfort working in fast-paced, experimental environments with evolving direction.

Education
  • Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or related field-or equivalent experience.

Nice to Have
  • Experience in multimodal models, knowledge graphs, or semantic embeddings.
  • Familiarity with evaluation metrics for search/GenAI (e.g., NDCG, groundedness, hallucination detection).
  • Contributions to open-source GenAI/ML projects.
  • Interest in growing into technical leadership (mentorship, setting direction, cross-team influence).

Why Join Us?
  • Be part of the founding team of Atlassian's Singapore-based GenAI Modeling & Innovation Forge.
  • Work on cutting-edge applied research with direct product impact.
  • Collaborate with world-class teams, rich data, and strong infrastructure to build what's next.
  • Join a mission-driven, remote-first company where innovation and growth are celebrated.
