Vetted Jira developer in Argentina (UTC-3)

I have tinkered with computers ever since I was in elementary school. At age 17, I discovered programming and became instantly hooked by it. At age 25, I had the privilege of getting my first job in a team full of passionate learners who worked really hard to master their craft. Ever since then, I have always enjoyed working with people who love programming and love sharing their skills: no matter the job title, be it Software Engineer, Scrum Master or Solutions Developer, I enjoy workdays the most when someone in my team is learning something new (especially when that someone is me!). My strongest suit is C++ development, but as time goes on I find more and more tools that I enjoy trying out and using to solve the challenge I'm facing at the moment. There is no language or tool that is too daunting when one is surrounded by a team that loves learning and sharing. I am an avid reader and love reading and writing answers to a huge variety of topics: two of my main venues for this are StackOverflow (https://stackoverflow.com/users/8576366/pablo-oliva) and Quora (https://www.quora.com/profile/Pablo-Oliva-2).

FAQs

Why hire a Jira developer?

In today’s world, most companies have code-based needs that require developers to help build and maintain. For instance, if your business has a website or an app, you’ll need to keep it updated to ensure you continue to provide positive user experiences. At times, you may even need to revamp your website or app. This is where hiring a developer becomes crucial.

Depending on the stage and scale of your product and services, you may need to hire a Jira developer, multiple developers, or even a full remote developer team to help keep your business running. If you’re a startup or a company running a website, your product will likely grow out of its original skeletal structure. Hiring full-time remote Jira developers can help keep your website up-to-date.

How do I hire Jira developers?

To hire a Jira developer, you need to go through a hiring process of defining your needs, posting a job description, screening resumes, conducting interviews, testing candidates’ skills, checking references, and making an offer.

Arc offers three services to help you hire Jira developers effectively and efficiently. Hire full-time Jira developers from a vetted candidates pool, with new options every two weeks, and pay through prepaid packages or per hire.

Where do I hire the best remote Jira developers?

There are two types of platforms you can hire Jira programmers from: general and niche marketplaces. General platforms like Upwork, Fiverr, and Gigster offer a variety of non-vetted talents unlimited to developers. While you can find Jira developers on general platforms, top tech talents generally avoid general marketplaces in order to escape bidding wars.

If you’re looking to hire the best remote Jira developers, consider niche platforms like Arc that naturally attract and carefully vet their Jira developers for hire. This way, you’ll save time and related hiring costs by only interviewing the most suitable remote Jira developer candidates.

Some factors to consider when you hire Jira developers include the platform’s specialty, developer’s geographical location, and the service’s customer support. Depending on your hiring budget, you may also want to compare the pricing and fee structure.

Make sure to list out all of the important factors when you compare and decide on which remote developer job board and platform to use to find Jira developers for hire.

How do I write a Jira developer job description?

Writing a good Jira developer job description is crucial in helping you hire Jira programmers that your company needs. A job description’s key elements include a clear job title, a brief company overview, a summary of the role, the required duties and responsibilities, and necessary and preferred experience. To attract top talent, it's also helpful to list other perks and benefits, such as flexible hours and health coverage.

Crafting a compelling job title is critical as it's the first thing that job seekers see. It should offer enough information to grab their attention and include details on the seniority level, type, and area or sub-field of the position.

Your company description should succinctly outline what makes your company unique to compete with other potential employers. The role summary for your remote Jira developer should be concise and read like an elevator pitch for the position, while the duties and responsibilities should be outlined using bullet points that cover daily activities, tech stacks, tools, and processes used.
