Senior Systems Engineer — AI Code Metrics Daemon

Working at Atlassian

Atlassians can choose where they work whether in an office from home or a combination of the two. That way Atlassians have more control over supporting their family personal goals and other priorities. We can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity.

Were building the observability layer for AI-assisted software development measuring how much of an engineering orgs code is actually written by AI coding agents and attributing every line back to the work that produced it. Youll own major parts of a cross-platform endpoint agent end-to-end: architecture implementation and real-world deployment onto developer machines.

What Youll Do

• Build the core systems that detect and attribute AI-generated code at the line level across real Git workflows (rebases cherry-picks resets and all)

• Design reliable pipelines for capturing classifying storing and shipping developer agent activity from the endpoint

• Work directly with Git internals (reflog commit identity across history rewrites blob-level attribution) to collect data without interrupting developers

• Build and maintain integrations with coding agents (Cursor Claude Code Copilot Codex Gemini CLI and more) via editor/CLI hooks

• Own cross-platform behavior across macOS Linux and Windows

What Were Looking For

• Strong systems engineer backend OS internals endpoint/agent software or developer infrastructure

• We use Go but its fine if thats not your background (what matters is comfort with concurrent long-running low-level software)

• Experience building production systems that must be fast reliable and invisible to the user

• High-agency high-responsibility individuals with strong product intuition (you care how developers experience what you build)

• Excited about developer tools and using data to understand how engineers actually work with AI coding agents

• Bonus: Git internals developer tools / dev infra endpoint or monitoring agents (EDR sync clients telemetry agents) SQLite or embedded storage or cross-platform native development
