Your background:

On paper, you have 8+ years of experience interacting with Fortune 100 customers in a pre-sales capacity, with excellent communication, strong presentation skills to multi-level senior audiences, and heavy experience with the C-suite. You’ve got unmatched agility to do what it takes to get the job done and rally the internal teams to do the same. That’s not my job isn’t something you’ll hear on this team - if you’re looking to be a cog in the system, this job isn’t for you.

You’re a creative problem solver who can interpret complex business problems, boil them down into solutions, and collaborate with prospects, partners, and the Atlassian sales team to deliver compelling value-based solutions. You’re equally comfortable in both a business and technical context, interacting with executives or talking shop with strong technical audiences. You love to learn and continuously grow and challenge yourself, are open to giving and receiving feedback, tolerate failure, love to win, hate to lose, and are passionate about making customers and Atlassian successful.
