Atlassian

Atlassian Corporation is an Australian enterprise software company that builds collaboration and productivity tools used by over 300,000 organisations worldwide — from two-person startups to 86% of Fortune 500 companies. Founded in 2002 by Mike Cannon-Brookes and Scott Farquhar with a $10,000 credit card loan in Sydney, Atlassian disrupted enterprise software by selling directly online with no sales force — a model that generated $4.4 billion in annual revenue (FY2024) while keeping customer acquisition costs a fraction of competitors. The Atlassian suite includes: Jira (issue and project tracking used by 65,000+ companies), Confluence (team wiki and knowledge base), Trello (visual kanban boards with 50 million users), Bitbucket (Git code hosting), Jira Service Management (ITSM), and Atlassian Intelligence (AI-powered features across the suite). Atlassian went public on NASDAQ in 2015 and is valued at approximately $45 billion. In India, Atlassian employs 4,000+ people across Bengaluru and Chennai offices — its second-largest engineering hub globally — building core Jira and Confluence features.
