Atlassian Admin (Part-Time)

Our Story:

Recognized as a top kids' wearable by PCMag and others, Cosmo is on the rise.

About the Role

Reports To: Head of Delivery

Role Summary: Cosmo is seeking an experienced Atlassian Administrator to own and evolve our Atlassian Cloud environment, ensuring it supports how our engineering and product teams plan, prioritize, and deliver work. This role is responsible for designing scalable workflows, automation, and integrations that strengthen execution, reduce reactive work, and improve visibility across Engineering, Product, Customer Service, and Delivery.

You will own the configuration and evolution of our Atlassian environment and its integrations with tools such as Slack, GitHub, and elements of our AWS and CI/CD stack, ensuring systems work together to provide accurate, low-effort insight into delivery health and release readiness.

We anticipate this role to consistently work 20 hours per week, with flexibility to scale up to 30 hours per week during busy periods. This role is paid hourly at $30/hr.

Requirements

• Own and administer Cosmo’s Atlassian Cloud environment, ensuring Jira, Confluence, and related services are reliable, usable, and scalable.
• Design, configure, and maintain Jira workflows, issue types, fields, screens, permission schemes, and notification schemes aligned to Cosmo’s operating model.
• Implement and maintain intake, prioritization, and release-supporting workflows as designed by Delivery and Engineering leadership.
• Build and maintain automation using Jira Automation and JQL to improve data quality, enforce required fields, and reduce manual coordination.
• Design and maintain integrations between the Atlassian environment and tools such as Slack, GitHub, and CI/CD systems to improve signal flow and visibility.
• Develop and maintain dashboards and reports that reflect delivery health, release readiness signals, intake volume, and workflow compliance.
• Proactively identify workflow inefficiencies, data gaps, and usability issues, and propose system-level improvements.
• Evaluate, implement, and manage Atlassian Marketplace apps and third-party integrations where they add clear value.
• Establish and document Atlassian best practices and lightweight governance standards to ensure consistency without over-process.
• Provide documentation and lightweight enablement to support adoption and correct usage across Engineering and Product teams.
• Apply AI-assisted tools (such as Atlassian Intelligence or lightweight LLM integrations) to enhance intake triage, automation, and reporting, helping surface trends, risks, and delivery signals earlier while preserving clear human ownership of decisions.

• You enjoy building systems that help teams work more clearly, consistently, and effectively.
• You’re motivated by improving structure, quality, and scalability over time, and you take a thoughtful approach to designing workflows and tooling.
• You’re comfortable working in environments where processes are still evolving, and you approach ambiguity by asking good questions and making incremental improvements.
• You’re collaborative and pragmatic, and you enjoy partnering with cross functional leadership to translate real-world workflows into systems, automation, and dashboards.
• You care about data quality and visibility, and you’re deliberate about using automation and AI to reduce manual work and improve signal, while keeping human judgment central to decision-making.
• You value clarity, documentation, and repeatable practices, and you’re energized by helping teams deliver high-quality work through well-designed systems.

Qualifications

• Experience building dashboards and reports that support delivery and release visibility
• Experience integrating Jira with tools such as GitHub, Slack, CI/CD pipelines, or cloud infrastructure
• Strong systems thinking and attention to detail
• Ability to collaborate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
