The Senior Principal Product Designer will lead design initiatives across teams, delivering high-quality solutions and influencing product direction, while mentoring other designers.
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.
Role Overview:
We are looking for a Senior Principal Designer designer to sit amongst our leadership team to help shape strategic solutions and deliver high-quality design solutions for our Atlassian's Teamwork Collection - Jira, Confluence, Loom and Rovo Agents. AI is at the forefront of a new cross-product AI experience. This person will think about how will the future of teamwork evolve, and how can we bring teams together more effectively?
This role operates with high autonomy, determining not only solutions but also the approaches to achieve them. The Senior Principal Designer's primary ownership extends across multiple departments and business areas, driving significant business impact and influencing senior design management and executive leadership.
Key Responsibilities
