Jira and Confluence Data Center Engineer (ScriptRunner, Groovy, Azure) for NATO with security clearance

Jira and Confluence Data Center Engineer (ScriptRunner, Groovy, Azure) for NATO with security clearance Rebuild a NATO cyber operations management platform as a working mock-up, capture what it actually does as testable requirements, and demonstrate it to industry. Fully remote, four months. A NATO organisation is running a short, sharp piece of work with an unusual shape: before it can go to market for a replacement, it needs its current cyber operations management platform — built on Atlassian Jira and Confluence Data Center — reproduced as a working mock-up, described as requirements a third party could build from, and demonstrated live to industry. Four months, fully remote, at your own facilities. What you would be doing Building the mock-up. A simulated environment reproducing what the live platform does today across its two networks — the Jira and Confluence relationship, every plugin on the production instance, all the Jira processes that support the operational missions, and the supporting processes alongside them. Reproducing the harder machinery, not just the screens: the mechanism that lets low-side workflows be tracked from the high side with its hand-over and take-over, the wiki pages that publish dynamically off Jira issue changes, and the dynamic page templates behind the scaffolding and reporting. Loading enough mock data that every process can be run at least ten times over without ever reusing the same record. Capturing the requirements. Turning the mock-up into functional and non-functional requirements in a NATO AQAP-conforming format — readable and unambiguous to a company with no prior knowledge of the organisation — grouped logically, with the data that would have to migrate to any new capability identified, drafted in Confluence and delivered as a Word document. Every requirement unique, testable, verifiable, unambiguous, traceable and necessary. Making the video. A recorded walkthrough introducing the platform and stepping through each requirement, with the timecode of each one noted in the requirements document. 1920x1080 minimum, H.264/AVC, audio at 44 kHz or better, narrated by a native English speaker or someone at STANAG 6001 speaking level 4, and hosted by you for the contract plus two months. Running the live demo. Presenting the mock-up online at an industry engagement day, covering the same ground as the video but taking questions — and guaranteeing the environment is up and working on the day. What they are looking for Five years or more of Atlassian Jira Data Center administration , and five years or more of Confluence Data Center administration. A strong understanding of how Jira and Confluence actually work underneath, including at database level. Java, Groovy and ScriptRunner , and excellent scripting for automation and customisation (Bash, Python). Deploying solutions on Microsoft Azure . Real experience of dynamic content management and Jira-to-Confluence integration. Managing metadata across Confluence, Office and PDF documents and SharePoint. Linux server management, RedHat for preference. Prior work on this platform itself is a considerable advantage. Practical detail Fully remote — the work is executed entirely at the contractor's own facilities. Four months from contract award, with an estimated start of 1 September 2026. Four deliverables: the mock-up environment 60 days from award, the requirements document, the video, and the live industry demonstration. You must hold a valid clearance and be a citizen of a NATO member country. If you know Atlassian Data Center deeply enough to rebuild someone else's instance from the outside and then explain it to strangers, this is a genuinely interesting four months.
