Enterprise-ready JIRA Administrator and Senior QA Analyst driving scalable Atlassian solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am an enterprise-ready JIRA Administrator and Senior QA Analyst with over four years optimizing Atlassian platforms for scale, governance, and delivery efficiency. I have led JIRA Server-to-Cloud migrations, restructured workflows, permission schemes, and custom fields across SaaS and enterprise teams to improve data consistency and operational efficiency.
I design maintainable JIRA configurations that support Agile, ITSM, and QA workflows, create reusable workflow templates and automation rules, and conduct regular audits to ensure governance and data integrity. I also lead end-to-end QA efforts, authoring test strategy and execution for web and enterprise applications, and have automated large portions of regression testing using Selenium.
I collaborate closely with PMO, engineering, and operations to align tools with delivery models, reduce triage time, and scale systems to support 150+ users across distributed teams. I hold certifications in cybersecurity and AWS fundamentals and bring a background in finance and programming to bridge technical and business needs.
