“I need a new career” can mean very different things.
• Sometimes the profession no longer fits.
• Sometimes the real problem is the company, the workload, the lack of control or a conflict with your values.
• And sometimes you are trying to make a major career decision while completely exhausted.
That distinction matters.
Because changing professions will not automatically solve a problem that may follow you into the next role.
In my new article, I explore one question I work with regularly during career consultations:
𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗮 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿—𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗼𝘂𝘁?
Before you start again from zero, it is worth understanding what actually needs to change.
Read the article, then check my services page to explore how we can define your next move together—through a focused consultation or a longer career program.

Atlassian just made its biggest move yet toward AI-native software development.
Jira is being rebuilt around agents, and today's announcement changes how engineering teams will plan, delegate, and review work.
You can now assign work items directly to Claude Code, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot. Every agent session stays visible inside Jira instead of disappearing into someone's terminal. Routine fixes can be routed to agents through automation rules, with every step tied back to the original request.
The number behind all of this: in Atlassian's longitudinal study with DX, AI usage across engineering teams grew by 65%. Developer velocity grew by 10-15%.
That gap is what this launch is built to close. And the internal benchmarking hints at how: agents enriched with Teamwork Graph context delivered 44% more accurate results while using 48% fewer tokens. Same models, same agents. The difference was the context around them.
As an Atlassian Community Champion, I've watched this direction build for months, and today's announcement confirms a pattern I want to unpack properly. There's a reason this launch looks the way it does, and it's bigger than the feature list suggests.
We at TitanApps are now working on our own blog piece on the topic with unique use cases from our team, stay tuned :)

I searched “Jira tutorial for beginners” on YouTube last week.
The first three results had:
1.2 million views.
847K views.
623K views.
They were uploaded in 2021, 2022, and 2024.
People are still learning Jira fundamentals from YouTube every day, at a scale that genuinely surprised me.
Yet most vendors in the Atlassian ecosystem still treat creator content as background noise rather than a distribution channel.
This year, I looked more closely at how creator collaborations perform. One finding stood out: vendors may be stopping partnerships that are working because the dashboard makes them look ineffective.
I nearly made the same mistake.
In the article, I explore who is shaping your future customers’ understanding of Jira, what creators need instead of traditional marketing assets, and how to distinguish a performance problem from a measurement problem.
Have you worked with creators in the Atlassian Ecosystem? What did your data actually show?

Recurring tasks are easy to create in Jira.
Recurring processes are harder.
A monthly content report looks like one issue that reappears every month. In reality, it carries a structure: deadlines, links, changing dates, and 15 steps that should stay identical every single time.
Mine used to live in my memory and a copied document. Then I skipped one metric two months in a row, and the trend data broke. The full story is in the article, and it's the reason this system exists.
Now, on the first working day of each month, the report appears in my Jira backlog on its own. Right period, assignee, due date, instructions, and the full checklist already inside. Built with Smart Templates and Smart Checklist, no automation rules to maintain.
The system handles the repetition. I handle the analysis.
I wrote a practical breakdown of how the workflow works, where native Jira is already enough, and when templates start earning their place. With screenshots from my real June report.
If you run recurring reporting differently, tell me where your setup breaks. That's always the interesting part.

Amsterdam is the next milestone in a journey that started almost two years ago. ✈️
I joined the Atlassian Ecosystem at the end of 2024 as “the marketing person who uses Jira.”
Since then, I have:
• written Atlassian Community articles, including ones that reached 50K+ views
• shared my experience on Atlassian tools and marketing for Marketplace apps here on LinkedIn
• attended Work Evolution Summits and Bucharest Atlassian Community Events
• met more and more brilliant people across the ecosystem
• officially become an Atlassian Community Champion for Content Creation at the beginning of 2026 🎉
None of this happened quickly.
Every article, post, event, conversation, and new connection brought me a little closer to this point:
I’m going to Team ’26 Europe in Amsterdam, my first major Atlassian flagship event.
And it feels like much more than another conference.
It is a chance to meet old friends, finally meet online connections in person, make new ones, and spend three days talking about teamwork, AI, the future of work, and everything beyond it.
So, to my old and new Atlassian friends: see you in Amsterdam on October 6–8. 💙
It will be a pleasure to meet, exchange ideas, and probably discuss content, Marketplace apps, AI, and the future of work for much longer than planned. :)
And because I am going there as a Content Creator Champion, you can expect daily reviews from me, starting with the Champions workshop and ending with Bash.
Planning to join us?

The next chapter of my Atlassian journey begins in Amsterdam.
