Job Description

Atlassian is looking for an Associate Machine Learning Scientist to join our Core Machine Learning team based in Mountain View, CA. The Core Machine Learning team builds production machine learning infrastructure and modeling solutions through the end-to-end ML development cycle to produce revenue and MAU improvements across several departments. We offer a unique opportunity to work in a collaborative environment, implementing the latest machine learning techniques, including NLP modeling, to solve tough, yet unique problems in the marketing space.

Your future team

You'll be a member of the Core Machine Learning team, partnering with the Search Engine Optimization and Content teams to build and ship production machine learning and data science solutions using natural language processing to boost the search engine ranking of Atlassian's websites, boost web traffic, and guide creation and enhancement of marketing content. Your work will help millions of web visitors across a broad range of Atlassian web properties find the content they're looking for.

What you'll do

• Work with our large volume of analytics data to understand insightful trends and behaviors
• Craft machine learning and predictive models to automatically identify web content enhancement opportunities that boost SEO standing of pages and increase web traffic
• Apply and refine NLP techniques to power content creation and automatic content cross-linking using textual data
• Partner with our SEO and Content team to hone in on top business opportunities, and communicate machine learning work.
• Challenge and enrich yourself in an environment of like-minded ML scientists and engineers, and most importantly have fun!

Your background

• On your first day, we'll expect you to have:
• Bachelor or higher degree (or equivalent) in a quantitative subject (statistics, mathematics, computer science, engineering, or physics)
• Industry or academic experience in the data science or machine learning domain
• Experience in Python, familiarity with SQL, knowledge of Spark and cloud data environments (e.g. AWS, Databricks)
• Explain data science and machine learning concepts to diverse audiences and create a compelling story
• Focus on business practicality and the 80/20 rule; very high bar for output quality but recognize the business benefit of having something now vs perfection sometime in the future
• Agile development approach, appreciating the benefit of review, constant iteration, and improvement within a collaborative team environment
• It's great, but not required if you have:
• Experience developing, building, and scaling machine learning models in business applications using large amounts of data.
• Experience working in a consumer or B2C space for a SaaS product provider, or the enterprise/B2B space
• Experience designing and executing user experiments to test hypotheses
• Experience with SEO
