The Principal Implementation Architect will design specifications for implementation services, mentor consultants, engage in pre-sales, and evaluate KPIs while leveraging extensive experience in enterprise professional services.
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. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.
Implementation Services
The Atlassian Implementation Services team is a regionally-distributed team that delivers hands-on solution and product implementation services for our most complex strategic customers. Implementation Consultants execute configurations, partner with Advisory Services and ecosystem partners, and bring tangible solutions to customers, directly in their environment. This role is a hands-on-keyboard and requires strong consultative skills.
Required Background
Preferred Service-Specific Experience (Cloud Migration, JSM, etc.)
Compensation
At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. To support this goal, the baseline of our range is higher than that of the typical market range, but in turn we expect to hire most candidates near this baseline. Base pay within the range is ultimately determined by a candidate's skills, expertise, or experience. In the United States, we have three geographic pay zones. For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are:
Zone A: $180,000 - $235,000
Zone B: $162,000 - $211,500
Zone C: $149,400 - $195,050
This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity.

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
