The premable to my Jenkinsfile looks like

try {

    node("linux") {

      withCredentials([[$class: 'UsernamePasswordMultiBinding', credentialsId: 'REDACTED',
        usernameVariable: 'REDACTED_USER', passwordVariable: 'REDACTED_PASSWORD']]) {

When I run the job without the node label, everything works fine, as it runs on Master.With the node specification I get a failure related to failed auth.

My general question is do I need to do anything to make the credentials plugin work with slave nodes?

I don't think any special handling is needed in the build agent.

Can you try this in your pipeline script ?

withCredentials([[$class: 'UsernamePasswordMultiBinding', credentialsId: 'jiracreds', usernameVariable: 'JIRAUser', passwordVariable: 'JIRAPwd']]) {
     withEnv(["JIRA_USERNAME=${JIRAUser}",
                 "JIRA_PASSWORD=${JIRAPwd}",
                 "JIRA_TICKET=${item}"]) {
                        <build-script-can-use-the-env-vars>
       }
 }
