Join team XALT as…

Country Lead Austria – Atlassian & AI (m/f/x)

You know Austria’s technology and business landscape and want to build a location from the ground up. As Country Lead Austria, you will grow XALT from Vienna: winning customers, taking responsibility in Atlassian and AI engagements, building the local team, and representing XALT across Austria’s professional community.

The role combines consulting, business development, community work and location building. You will work closely with the Managing Director and our consulting, sales and delivery teams. AI will be part of your daily work, with results that remain open to verification.

What we are working towards

We want to help companies use AI to improve the work people rely on every day. We combine consulting, software development and our own products to make that happen. What excites us is seeing a technical idea become something people can count on.

  • Immediately

What you will do

  • Develop XALT’s Austrian market and build a qualified pipeline with companies, partners and professional communities.
  • Lead customer conversations from the first idea to a credible initiative, while contributing hands-on to workshops, solution design and quality assurance in key Atlassian and AI engagements.
  • Build the Vienna team, hire and develop people, and shape with the Managing Director how the location launches and grows.
  • Make XALT visible across Austria’s Atlassian, AI, DevOps and product communities: map relevant user groups, develop three reusable talk formats, and deliver at least twelve substantial talks in your first year.
  • Turn project experience into useful, non-promotional talks in German and English, building lasting relationships with organisers and participants.
  • Travel regularly to customers and events in Graz, Linz, Salzburg, Innsbruck and other regions of Austria.
  • Keep pipeline, hiring, talks, decisions and next steps transparent in Jira and Confluence, using AI agents to accelerate research, preparation and follow-up.
  • We will assess your work through qualified customer opportunities, satisfied customers, a growing local team and credible visibility in Austria’s professional community.

What you bring

  • Several years of experience in Atlassian consulting, enterprise software, platform programmes or a comparable technology-led transformation field
  • The ability to win customers and then support their initiatives through to delivery
  • Experience building a team, business unit, location or active professional community
  • Strong roots in Austria’s technology and business landscape, with a base in or around Vienna
  • A proven track record as a speaker and the ability to explain complex subjects clearly in German and English without turning a talk into a sales pitch
  • Entrepreneurial judgement, a strong sense of ownership and the willingness to work hands-on during an early build-up phase
  • Willingness to travel throughout Austria
  • At least one business, consulting or community process you have improved or automated yourself with AI and can demonstrate live during the application process

Your AI example

Bring a process you have improved or automated yourself with AI and show it to us live. Explain your own contribution, whether the workflow performs consistently, and what has measurably improved. We are also interested in its limitations and how you review the results. One example is enough; you may recreate it with test data. Please do not share confidential information or protected code.

What we offer

  • A genuine mandate to build XALT in Austria, with direct access to the Managing Director and short decision paths
  • €110,000–140,000 gross per year, depending on experience; we are open to going beyond this range for exceptional candidates
  • Unlimited tokens for Claude, OpenAI and the latest, most advanced AI tools
  • Support for talks, travel, community work and professional development across the Atlassian and AI ecosystems
  • The scope to shape the team, working practices and development of our Vienna location
  • Professional exchange within an international company with teams in Munich, Leipzig, Manila and New York

Your working arrangements

This is a full-time role anchored in Vienna. During the build-up phase, you will work flexibly and closely with our existing teams. You will help shape how the Vienna location launches and grows. What matters is that you build relationships locally while regularly visiting customers and communities throughout Austria.

Your application

Send your CV to careers@xalt.de. Links to talks, podcasts, articles or community contributions will help us get to know you; if no recording exists, a short description is enough. Please also tell us in a few sentences what you would build for XALT Austria during your first 90 days. You can send any questions to careers@xalt.de as well.
