  • Working knowledge of Jira Work Management or Atlassian Software, including workflow and rule configuration
  • A strong AI-first mindset, with an interest in deploying intelligent tools, automation, and low-code/no-code solutions
  • Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills
