It's easy using Jirassimo add-on (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/net.vacom.jirassimo/cloud/overview)

You will need to create a messenger and in "Channel" textarea write something like this:

"@user"   

without the quotes. This will do the trick for hardcoded usernames in Slack, but if you need to dynamically resolve Slack user from email, then you can use the following construct:

{{#issues}} {{#fields}} {{#settingValue key=reporter.emailAddress}}{{/settingValue}} {{/fields}} {{/issues}}

Here, Jirassimo will pick up the email address of reporter and resolve it against Slack @user that you configure under Jirassimo settings page as key=value list.

Hope this helps,
