ROLE PURPOSE
Serve as the programmes Jira Cloud subject-matter authority in support of Clients migration execution.

- Support wave criteria definition and per-project complexity assessment; contribute to go/no-go readiness reviews.
- Define the validation and verification approach for migrated data and configuration (staging-first migration, integrity comparison, user mapping consistency) and review verification outcomes with Clients migration engineers.
- Provide escalation-level troubleshooting guidance during migration windows and hypercare; document architectural decisions and standards in Confluence.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE
- 10+ years of Atlassian platform expertise spanning Jira Data Center and Jira Cloud administration/architecture at enterprise scale (5,000+ users).
- Direct experience with Data Center-to-Cloud migration assessment and planning, including familiarity with Atlassians cloud migration tooling and staged (staging-to-production) migration approaches.
- Deep knowledge of the Atlassian Marketplace ecosystem, including cloud app parity analysis and the Connect/Forge platform transition.
- Strong grasp of enterprise identity, security, and goverce in Atlassian Cloud (Atlassian Guard/Access, SSO/SCIM, data residency).
- Ability to communicate architectural trade-offs crisply to both engineers and programme leadership.
PREFERRED
- Atlassian certifications (e.g., ACP-level Jira administration).
- Experience in regulated industries where validation evidence and auditability matter.
- Exposure to SAFe-aligned Jira configuration at scale.
