Experience

I am an Atlassian Solutions Architect with over 10 years of experience in IT, specializing in Jira administration, cloud migrations, and ITSM implementations. I have a strong background in deploying, configuring, and optimizing Jira and Confluence in both Linux and cloud environments. My expertise includes leading Jira migrations from on-premise data centers to the cloud, integrating third-party tools, and automating workflows using Groovy scripting (ScriptRunner), API integrations, and advanced automation rules.

I have successfully implemented and customized Jira Service Management (JSM), migrating organizations from tools like ServiceNow and Zendesk to JSM while ensuring seamless ITSM processes. Additionally, I have experience in governance, compliance, and security best practices, particularly in regulated industries.

Beyond technical expertise, I excel in stakeholder communication, solution strategy, and pre-sales discussions, working closely with cross-functional teams, leadership, and offshore teams to align Atlassian solutions with business needs. My deep knowledge of Jira performance optimization, troubleshooting, and infrastructure management makes me a valuable asset in any enterprise environment.
