Senior Infrastructure Engineer - Jira & Confluence

I am recruiting for a Senior Infrastructure Engineer to work on a hybrid basis - 3 days in any of the following - London, Manchester, Blackpool, Leeds, Birmingham, Sheffield or Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. The role falls inside IR35 so you will need to work through an umbrella company for the duration of the contract. Candidates MUST have worked within Central Government in the last 12 months. You must have a deep understanding of Jira and Confluence administration and how this can be safely applied in a complex environment that covers software & IaaS development, product support and user-centric design. You must also have experience of Atlassian plugins (including writing groovy for script runner). You will be able to safely migrate Jira and Confluence projects/spaces and users to a new installation. You will also be able to co-design effective Jira workflows/schemes with delivery leaders. You must have experience of designing and running an administration function fit for regular requests for new users, new spaces & customised Jira workflows/schemes for projects. It would also be very useful (but not essential) if you have previously worked in an agile environment, and have experience of creating and managing infrastructure solutions in AWS. Please apply ASAP to find out more
