AI skillsThis role asks for AI & agentic skills, exactly what we teach at Into Design SystemsWhat you'll do
- Own the operating system for engineering, product, and design: systems, agents, and practices with Jira as the substrate
- Design and own workflow and hierarchy across engineering, product, and design in Jira
- Ensure Jira reflects real practice, and real practice reflects what needs to show up in Jira, in both directions
- Build the agents and automation that run the system yourself, with AI as part of how you work
- Drive adoption by engaging teams whose practice doesn't match the substrate, through conversation, artifacts, or clear instruction that works without you in the room
- Understand delivery breakdowns at the mechanism level and build fixes that address the root cause
- Build alongside teammates who are growing into more technical work and raise their ceiling
What they're looking for
- Build and ship recently, with AI as part of how you work
- 'I'd ask an engineer to build that' is not a valid answer; you must be able to build rather than defer
- Find the mechanism that's actually failing before reaching for a tool; default is to remove steps, not add them
- Move toward a solution now; do not wait for a green light and be able to name a real decision you made and acted on without checking first
- Learn what's new before anyone tells you to—especially in AI tooling—and share what you find with others
- Get things adopted without authority through conversation, well-built artifacts, or clear instruction
- Be accountable for the outcome, not just the artifact; do post-launch work such as adoption, fixing wrong assumptions, and cleanup after handoff
- Open to using AI to amplify skills and apply AI responsibly, demonstrating curiosity and sound judgment
