The Problem
When you browse a talent marketplace, you are guessing. You see a resume that claims '5 Years Jira,' but you don't know:
Can they architect Forge apps with proper serverless function design, or do they only know legacy Connect hosting?
Have they built Custom UI for complex interactions, or do they rely entirely on pre-built UI Kit components?
Is their ScriptRunner code maintainable and performant, or will it create technical debt in your workflows?
The Solution
ConnectDevs removes the guesswork. We don't just send profiles; we send Structured Intelligence. Every candidate is interviewed by SAM against the specific Jira challenges you care about. You don't guess if they are good. You know.

Global Talent Network
Most teams hiring Jira specialists also need Confluence integration, DevOps toolchain automation, and custom reporting dashboards.
Everything you need to know about sourcing, assessing, and hiring top Jira Developers through our platform.
SAM evaluates candidates on Forge-specific architecture including serverless functions, UI Kit 2 versus Custom UI trade-offs, and secure data residency patterns. You receive a report showing their ability to navigate the constraints and capabilities of the cloud-native Forge platform.
Senior Jira developers command average salaries around $160,000 annually as enterprises migrate to Atlassian Cloud. Traditional agencies add 20-35% in fees. ConnectDevs operates on a $69/mo flat subscription, removing percentage-based markups.
Scout searches 800M+ public profiles for Atlassian ecosystem signals including Forge app development, ScriptRunner expertise, and JQL mastery. This delivers a match-scored shortlist faster than manual sourcing, typically ready in days.
Admins configure existing features; developers extend Jira's capabilities through Forge apps, custom workflows, and API integrations. If your organization needs functionality beyond marketplace plugins, a developer with Forge and ScriptRunner skills is essential.
Atlassian is actively transitioning to Forge as the cloud-native standard, offering better security and compliance. Developers with only Connect experience will face a steep learning curve on serverless architecture and data residency constraints. Prioritize Forge proficiency for long-term platform alignment.
Every candidate comes with assessment data including competency scores on Jira Expressions, JQL, and Groovy scripting via ScriptRunner. Review the structured reports and recorded technical interviews before committing interview resources to reduce mis-hire risk.
