I am looking for remote Jira Admin in United States

[Mohan Rayudu]

Position: Agile Tooling Coach / Jira Administrator

Duration: 8-month contract (strong chance to extend)

Work Authorization: U.S. Citizen or Green Card only

Location: Remote (must work CST or EST hours; Chicago area preferred)

Experience: 3–7 years

Must-Have Skills

• Strong Jira Administration experience (not just basic admin or "button pushing")
• Hands-on experience with Atlassian Cloud products:
  • Jira
  • Confluence
  • Jira Align (bonus)
  • Rovo AI (nice to have)
  • Jira Service Management (JSM) Enterprise (plus, but not looking for a help desk JSM admin)
• Experience building workflows, dashboards, permissions, reports, and configurations
• Ability to coach and guide teams on Agile tools and best practices
• Confident enough to challenge bad requests and recommend better solutions
• Cloud experience is required (server-only experience will not work)

What You'll Do

• Administer and improve Jira, Confluence, and other Atlassian tools
• Build and maintain workflows, dashboards, reports, and integrations
• Support Agile teams using Scrum, Kanban, and SAFe
• Train and onboard users on Atlassian tools
• Recommend best practices and improve how teams use Agile tooling
• Create metrics and reporting (EazyBI or Tableau is a plus)

Nice to Have

• Jira Align experience
• Jira Service Management (JSM)
• EazyBI or Tableau reporting
• Agile certifications (Scrum Master, RTE, SPC)

Education

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, IT, or related field (or equivalent experience)

Ideal Candidate: Someone who is a true Jira/Atlassian expert, enjoys coaching teams, understands Agile practices, and can design the right solutions—not just perform basic administration.
