What You'll Do As the Technical Lead for SDLC platform engineering and automation, you will define the technical direction for an enterprise AI platform that transforms the software development lifecycle through intelligent automation. Working in close partnership with Product Management and engineering leaders, you will design scalable AI capabilities — including integrations across the Atlassian ecosystem (Jira, Confluence, Forge, Atlas, Automation) and modern practices such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP), event-driven architectures, and retrieval-augmented workflows — that improve developer productivity, accelerate software delivery, and strengthen engineering quality across the organization. You will serve as the technical authority for AI architecture, establishing engineering standards, guiding implementation decisions, and mentoring engineers while driving the evolution from event-driven AI capabilities toward increasingly autonomous, multi-agent systems. You will lead architecture reviews, evaluate emerging AI technologies, and ensure platforms are secure, resilient, observable, and aligned with enterprise architecture, governance, and Responsible AI principles — balancing innovation with enterprise-grade reliability and operational excellence
