Secondary Skills - Nice to Haves
Key Responsibilities:
• Data Extraction & Analysis — Profile and extract Jira on-premises data (issues, projects, attachments, custom fields, workflow histories, links, sprints) via REST APIs and direct database queries (PostgreSQL/MySQL).
• Impact Analysis — Assess data scope, volume, and structural differences between Jira Server schema and Atlassian Cloud schema; document gaps and transform rules.
• ETL Pipeline Development — Design, build, and test transformation pipelines to map on-prem data structures to Atlassian Cloud-compatible formats (CSV imports, Jira Cloud REST API, or migration tooling such as the Atlassian Cloud Migration Assistant / JCMA).
• Data Load Execution — Execute staged data loads into Atlassian Cloud sandbox and production environments; coordinate cutover windows with project teams.
• Validation & Reconciliation — Build automated reconciliation scripts to verify record counts, field mappings, attachment integrity, and link consistency post-migration.
