• Monitor Jira license utilization, user growth, and application usage to ensure efficient use of subscriptions.
• Collaborate with procurement teams to support renewal, optimization, and budget decisions.
• Recommend and integrate plugins from Atlassian Marketplace, as needed.
System Integration & Development:
• Design, implement, and maintain seamless integrations between Jira with other enterprise systems, such as GitLab (source control & CI/CD), and ServiceNow (ITSM), using Okta, REST APIs, webhooks, middleware, and scripting.
• Automate data synchronization across platforms to support traceability from planning to release.
• Troubleshoot and optimize integration pipelines to ensure performance, security, and scalability.
• Partner with infrastructure and cybersecurity teams to align integrations with enterprise security and compliance standards.
• Develop and maintain technical documentation, standards, and best practices.
• Agile Enablement
• Partner with the Agile Transformation Office to translate Agile practices into effective Jira configurations and usage patterns.
• Provide technical guidance and mentoring to Scrum Masters, Product Owners, and teams on best-practice tool utilization.
• Support reporting and analytics initiatives, ensuring reliable Agile metrics (velocity, burndown, cycle time, etc.).
• Support and enable teams transition from Azure DevOps Boards, Gitlab, Jira (hosted) to JIRA SaaS.
Knowledge/Skill Requirements:
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 3+ years of hands-on experience administering and/or engineering Jira (Self-hosting or SaaS).
• Proven, hands-on experience developing custom integrations with enterprise platforms, especially GitLab and ServiceNow.
• Proficiency in scripting (Python, PowerShell, or JavaScript) and REST API integration.
• Strong understanding of Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban, SAFe) and DevSecOps principles.
• Experience in enterprise migrations from Azure DevOps or similar tools to Jira.
Preferred:
• Familiarity with Atlassian ecosystem (Confluence, Bitbucket, Atlassian Government Cloud) and marketplace apps.
• Experience working in a DevSecOps or Platform Engineering environment.
• Experience with information security, privacy, and risk assessment standards including FISMA, SOX, FedRAMP, etc. is preferred.
• Federal government experience is preferred.
• Atlassian Certified Professional (ACP-620, ACP-120, or equivalent) preferred.
The Contractor shall deliver, but not limited to, the following:
• Administering, configuring, and integrating the Jira Atlassian SaaS for government cloud within our enterprise technology ecosystem.
• Consolidating our collaborative planning tools—transitioning from Azure DevOps (onprem) and GitLab (on-prem) to Jira Atlassian Government Cloud (AGC) SaaS for government.
• Building robust, automated, and secure integrations between Jira SaaS for government and core enterprise systems (e.g. ServiceNow, GitLab), enabling end-to-end visibility across planning, development and operations
