Atlassian Platform Engineer

Who you are

• A track record of owning and improving platforms at scale - you've taken end-to-end responsibility for a collaboration or business systems platform in a complex environment, not just administered it
• Strong integration and automation experience - you've built integrations between systems using REST APIs, webhooks, or similar, and you've designed automation that actually got adopted
• Experience with Atlassian Cloud (Jira, Confluence, JSM) - hands-on administration and configuration at an enterprise scale. This is our current core platform and you'll need to go deep on it
• Comfort working across multiple tools - whether that's Google Workspace, Slack, ServiceNow, Salesforce, or something else, you've managed more than one platform and know how to make them work together
• Engineering mindset - you think in systems, write scripts, and reach for code when configuration isn't enough. Experience with JavaScript/TypeScript or Python is useful; Atlassian Forge is a bonus, not a requirement
• Experience with AI-assisted automation - you've built or supported automated workflows using AI tooling (Rovo Agents or equivalent) and know how to govern and measure their impact
• Strong stakeholder skills - you can translate ambiguous business problems into well-scoped tooling solutions and influence without formal authority

What the job involves

• As a Atlassian Platform Engineer in our People, Workplace and IT department, you'll own how Personio's teams collaborate at scale
• That means taking responsibility for the tools, workflows, and integrations that keep thousands of people aligned and moving fast — and continuously improving them as the company grows
• Our current core platform is Atlassian Cloud (Jira, Confluence, JSM Assets), and you'll go deep on it
• But this role is about more than one tool
• We're looking for an engineer who thinks in systems — someone who can see across our collaboration stack, build integrations that connect the right things, and use automation and AI to reduce friction at every layer
• You'll work closely with Engineering, IT, and People teams, and you'll have a real say in how we evolve our tooling over time
• Own how Personio's teams collaborate at scale - taking end-to-end responsibility for the tools, workflows, and integrations that keep the business running, with Atlassian Cloud as the core platform
• Build and maintain integrations between our collaboration tools and internal/external systems, using REST APIs, webhooks, and modern authentication patterns
• Design and implement automation across the stack - from Jira Automation and Forge triggers to native automation in other collaboration tools - to reduce manual work and improve how teams get things done
• Manage and evolve our broader collaboration tooling (e.g. Slack, Google Workspace, or similar), ensuring tools are well-integrated, reliable, and adopted effectively across the business
• Own JSM Assets (CMDB) - schema design, data quality, automation, and sync with external sources
• Create and support AI-assisted workflows, including Rovo Agents, that help teams access information and automate repetitive processes
• Evaluate and onboard new tooling as business needs evolve, driving governance, adoption, and integration with the wider stack
• Collaborate across departments to understand what's slowing teams down, navigate trade-offs, and ship practical solutions quickly

Benefits

• Receive a competitive reward package – reevaluated each year – that includes salary, benefits, and pre-IPO equity
• Enjoy 28 days of paid vacation, plus an additional day after 2 and 4 years (because we love what we do, but we also love vacation!)
• Make an impact on the environment and society with Impact Days
• Receive generous family leave, child support, mental health support, and sabbatical opportunities with PersonioCares
• Connect with your fellow Personios at regular company and team events like All Company Culture Week and local year-end celebrations
• Engage in a high-impact working environment with flat hierarchies and short decision-making processes
• Find your best way to work with our office-led, and remote-friendly PersonioFlex!
