Atlassian
Principal Forward Deployed Engineer
Why it's interesting
Jira and Confluence's owner — 300K+ customers — now runs a Principal-tier FDE org for its AI push, with SF, a Seattle Senior Principal req, and a fully-remote AI variant all live at once. $206K–$269K to embed enterprise-scale agent deployments: proof the title has landed at the collaboration-software incumbent, not just the labs.
The role
Principal-level FDE embedding with top enterprise customers to design, build, and deploy AI/ML-powered solutions on Atlassian's platform (Rovo and the agent stack). Architect integrations in Python/JavaScript across APIs, microservices, and enterprise-scale systems; 8–10 years experience. Parallel Senior Principal (Seattle) and Principal FDE, AI (Remote) postings are live alongside. Sourced via the Plank FDE census (CC BY 4.0).
