  • Collaborate with stakeholders to gather requirements and define migration strategies.
  • Develop runbooks, communication plans, and test scripts for migration readiness.
  • Execute pilot migrations, validate integrations, and manage production cutover.
  • Provide training and enablement sessions for Jira administrators and JSM agents post-migration.
  • Ensure compliance with Atlassian best practices, security standards, and organizational policies.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience as an Atlassian Administrator/Engineer with Jira Software and Jira Service Management.
  • Strong experience in Atlassian Server Data Center upgrades and Jira Cloud migrations.
  • Solid understanding of Atlassian plugin management, including SVN connector or equivalent integrations.
  • Expertise in configuring JSM projects, request types, SLAs, automations, and workflows.
  • Experience with Atlassian Access (SSO/SCIM, identity management) is highly desirable.
  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills across Atlassian ecosystems.
  • Familiarity with Atlassian licensing, pricing tiers, and deployment models (Cloud Standard vs Premium, Data Center tiers).

Preferred Skills

  • Atlassian certifications (ACP-120, ACP-610, ACP-620, or equivalent).
  • Experience supporting large user bases (500+ Jira users) in enterprise environments.
  • Knowledge of Confluence Cloud administration is a plus.
