I am looking for the option of having two Jira Issue workflow buttons each following their own workflow, each showing on one ticket.

The idea is to be able to work on the two different parts of our process at the same time. by two different people. Currently we are limited by the one jira workflow, which means that in time critical work, we miss out on data collection, on time spent on each step.

So question is: Is it possible to do? or is there a addon that could do this?
 e.g.
One Workflow is focused only on working on Content
The other is focused only on working on segmentation.

@Joakim Pedersen Welcome to the Atlassian community

An issue can have one workflow that has to different diverging flows but only one could be used for that issue at a time.  This is because the issue can only have one status at a time and only one assignee.  I would suggest looking at sub-tasks or different issue types that would have a specific workflow associated with them.  You could link the two issue together.  The easiest would be to use sub-tasks (unique issue type) with their own workflows that is tracked under a parent issue to keep all the work easily contained.
