Welcome to the official CareerOS help guide โ your resource for getting the most out of your career growth experience inside Jira.
1. Install CareerOS
Install the app directly from the Atlassian Marketplace into your Jira Cloud instance.
2. Open CareerOS
Once installed, navigate to the CareerOS panel inside Jira. No setup needed.
3. Start Using It
Goals and metrics will automatically populate based on your Jira activity. To get the most value:
Define a few career goals
Track progress by linking metrics (e.g. tickets completed, features shipped)
CareerOS helps you:
โ๏ธ Define and track personal development goals
๐ Visualize metrics from your real Jira data
๐ค Align with your manager through transparent, real-time progress
This app is designed to be useful both individually and collaboratively with your manager.
No manual setup or special permissions are needed.
Just jump in and start defining what growth looks like for you.
Update your goals regularly to keep them relevant.
Use metric tracking to reflect on weekly or sprint-level growth.
Meet with your manager to review progress inside the app.
Q: Is there any onboarding required?
Nope! Just install and go.
Q: Do I need to configure anything?
Nothing at all โ CareerOS uses your existing Jira data.
Q: Who can see my goals and metrics?
Currently, only you and the developer (for support/debugging). Team-sharing features are coming soon.
Q: What if I need help?
Use the in-app form for feature requests or bug reports, or email jobtrajectory@gmail.com.
We haven't encountered major issues yet, but hereโs what to try:
Reload Jira if something looks off
Check permissions if data isnโt showing up (you need access to the tickets you want tracked)
