Proficiency with Atlassian Cloud tools, including Jira, ROVO, Jira Service Management, Jira Product Discovery, Assets, Analytics, Confluence, and Marketplace applications.

Ability to work collaboratively and navigate complex decision-making scenarios.

Experience with command-line interfaces (GCloud, GitHub, Vault, OpenShift), as well as Linux, Shell, and Bash.
