EverPro - Software Engineering Operations Specialist

Role Summary

The Engineering Operations Analyst is a hands‑on operator responsible for implementing, maintaining, automating and continuously improving a unified Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) across a portfolio of software applications. This role is deeply embedded in day‑to‑day engineering and product operations, owning Atlassian Jira, Confluence, and Productboard configurations and actively building workflows, automation, and integrations that support efficient quality delivery.

This position combines process ownership with technical execution, requiring someone who can both define standards and personally configure the tools that enforce them. The role works closely with Engineering, Product, and Quality teams to reduce friction, increase visibility, and ensure consistent execution across diverse teams and systems.  In addition, this role will look towards automating reporting and operations using AI.

Key Responsibilities

SDLC Implementation & Enforcement

• Actively audit teams’ usage of tools to ensure adherence to required SDLC practices
• Partner directly with engineers and managers to troubleshoot process breakdowns
• Iterate quickly on process improvements based on real delivery data and team feedback
• Implement AI automation for reporting and operational excellence

Jira & Confluence Ownership

  • Custom dashboards and reports
• Create and maintain Confluence:
  • SDLC documentation
  • Templates for project pages, release notes, and retrospectives
  • Embedded Jira reports and live status views
• Clean up legacy configurations and reduce tool sprawl from acquired companies

Workflow Design & Automation

• Build and maintain Jira automation rules to:
  • Enforce required fields and transitions
  • Reduce manual updates and duplication
  • Improve traceability from idea → delivery
• Design workflows that reflect real engineering practices rather than theoretical models
• Implement integrations between Jira, Confluence, and Productboard
• Own ongoing tuning and performance of automations to prevent noise or system overhead

Productboard Administration & Integration

• Configure and maintain Productboard structure, including components, features, initiatives, and views
• Actively manage Jira ↔ Productboard synchronization
• Ensure roadmaps and priorities in Productboard accurately reflect execution in Jira
• Support product teams with hands‑on setup for new products, views, and reporting

Enablement Through Doing

• Create practical, step‑by‑step guidance for teams (how‑to docs, workflows, examples)
• Lead live tool walkthroughs and working sessions rather than theoretical training
• Join planning or delivery meetings as needed to support adoption
• Provide direct support during onboarding of newly acquired engineering teams

Metrics & Operational Reporting

• Actively build and maintain Jira dashboards for delivery, flow, and predictability
• Ensure metric accuracy by enforcing consistent workflows and data standards
• Use real delivery data to highlight bottlenecks and improvement opportunities
• Partner with leadership to interpret metrics and recommend concrete changes
• Maintain and distribute leadership dashboards on a monthly basis

Required Qualifications

• 7+ years in engineering operations, engineering management, program management, or similar roles
• Deep, hands‑on Jira and Confluence administration experience
• Demonstrated experience building and maintaining Jira workflows, automations, and reporting
• Strong understanding of SDLC execution in real engineering environments
• Experience working directly with engineers to solve process and tooling challenges
• Ability to operate independently and make day‑to‑day configuration decisions
• Strong written documentation and practical training skills

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting tool and process consolidation after acquisitions

• Experience with implementing AI automations using Claude
• Hands‑on Productboard administration experience
• Background in software development, QA, DevOps, or SRE
• Familiarity with Agile, Kanban, and hybrid delivery models

What Success Looks Like

• Teams are actively using Jira workflows as designed, not working around them
• SDLC requirements are enforced by tooling, not manual policing
• Jira and Productboard data are trusted by leadership and teams
• Reduced manual updates through effective automation
• Engineers experience less friction and clearer expectations in day‑to‑day delivery
