I have 5 years of experience working with Jira, using it as the main tool for project management and task tracking in development and operations teams. I have implemented and configured various workflows according to Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban).
Key areas of experience:
- Project Management: Creating and configuring different types of projects (Scrum, Kanban, Service Desk). Managing backlogs, sprints, epics, and tasks.
- Workflow Configuration: Creating, editing, and customizing workflows, including adding statuses, transitions, and conditions. Using scripts to automate transitions.
- Jira Query Language (JQL): Actively using JQL to search for tasks, filter data, and create custom dashboards and reports.
- Integrations: Setting up Jira integrations with other DevOps tools such as Confluence, Bitbucket/GitHub/GitLab, Jenkins/GitLab CI, Slack.
- Automation: Creating automation rules in Jira Automation to perform routine tasks (e.g., automatic task assignment, field updates, notifications).
- Plugins and Extensions: Installing and configuring plugins from the Atlassian Marketplace to extend Jira functionality (e.g., for portfolio management, data visualization).
- Reporting and Dashboards: Creating and configuring dashboards to visualize key project metrics, team progress, and support request statuses.
Example JQL query to find all incomplete tasks in the current sprint:
// Find all tasks from the current sprint that are not in "Done" or "Closed" status
Sprint = current() AND statusCategory != Done
Example of workflow setup with a conditional transition:
| From Status | Transition | To Status | Condition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Open | Start Work | In Progress | User in "Developers" group |
| In Progress | Resolve | Resolved | All subtasks completed |
While working with Jira, I also documented processes and conducted training for new users. I have experience with both Cloud and Data Center versions of Jira.
