Hi @Jake Roche , 
I am interested in the above role. However I do not have Active clearance. Is it something I can apply and get ? Can you share more details about active clearance? 

[Jake Roche]

Hi Sai,

Thank you for your interest! Just to clarify, individuals can't apply directly for a security clearance, it must be sponsored through a federal or government program. In some cases, companies may bring candidates onboard and then initiate the clearance process. Unfortunately, that isn't the case with this particular opportunity.

I truly appreciate you reaching out, and I wish you the very best moving forward!

Best,

Jake

Hi @Jake Roche ,

I am writing to express my interest in the position of Senior Jira Administrator and DevOps Engineer at this company. With over 10 years of experience in enterprise environments and a strong background in DevOps practices, automation, and Atlassian administration, I am confident in my ability to deliver innovative solutions that improve system performance, team collaboration, and deployment efficiency.

In my most recent role at Tata Consultancy Services, I have been responsible for administering and customizing Jira and Confluence platforms, ensuring optimal configuration to meet the dynamic needs of Agile teams. My previous experience at Infosys Ltd. sharpened my DevOps engineering skills where I led CI/CD pipeline implementations using Jenkins and GitLab, container orchestration with Kubernetes, and system automation with Python and Shell scripting.

Notably, I introduced a Kanban-based support model in Jira to streamline issue tracking, and integrated security tools into deployment pipelines to enhance code quality and compliance. My collaborative approach, combined with a deep technical understanding of both infrastructure and Atlassian tools, enables me to bridge the gap between operations and development effectively.

What drives me is the opportunity to solve complex problems, automate for scalability, and empower teams with reliable tools and workflows. I am enthusiastic about the possibility of bringing this mindset to the company, contributing to both the stability and evolution of your DevOps infrastructure and project management systems.

Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to further discuss how my experience and skills align with your team’s goals. I am available for an interview at your convenience and can be reached via email at nidhibalagupta@gmail.com.

Thanks,

Nidhi
