Issue Tracker
The core of any change controlled environment is a well configured and maintained issue tracker, such as JIRA.
Without such a tool it would be impossible to track and plan any change effectively for your platform.
Unfortunately many companies use tools such as JIRA out of the box without fully realising the potential the tool can bring to their organisation and often find it difficult to implement the changes they require into tool and their process. In many cases, I have seen companies claim that their installations are “customised” and on further inspection found this to mean little more than a custom field or two.
As an experienced JIRA administrator I specialise in full JIRA administration and customisation from the ground up, whether it be a whole new implementation or migrating an existing installation.
I can offer the following
- Fully customised workflow that integrates the SDLC best practices with your companies unique process.
- Turning JIRA into a source of truth for your product, where JIRA can become an accurate reflection of your source.
- Allowing JIRA to become an auditing and reporting tool, perfect for KPI’s and Monitoring of resources.
- Integration of JIRA into other platforms, such as source control, built automation, documentation and communication, such as
- SVN or Git
- Bamboo or Jenkins
- Confluence, and
- Hipchat
- Microsoft Teams
- Knowledge of the JIRA API to allow for custom reporting to be developed along side the in built capabilities of JIRA.
- JIRA wall-boards to help in monitoring process and tasks.
- Agile best practices, agile boards and combined agile boards for monitoring multiple sprints at once.
- Integration of requirement management, code review and testing into the JIRA workflow to build a solid single platform for your development team.
- Personalised and Shared Dashboards.
- Custom fields and issue types.
- Permission control and user roles and groups.
Samples of the above and more can be provided during interview.
