Growing hiring challenges prompt companies to adapt their talent strategies

HELSINKI, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Companies that rely on Atlassian tools are facing a serious hiring challenge: demand for Atlassian professionals is surging, but the right expertise is increasingly difficult to find, and it isn’t likely to improve. According to Eficode’s 2025 State of Atlassian Talent report, 67% of hiring managers are actively seeking Atlassian talent. Yet, more than half of the total respondents believe the talent pool is already too small.

Even more concerning, the shortage of certified and highly skilled professionals is widening the gap between business needs and available expertise. Many companies are struggling not just to hire, but to hire effectively, risking stalled projects, inefficient tool usage, and higher costs due to misaligned skill sets.

This report uncovers the key challenges businesses face in securing Atlassian talent and provides data-driven insights to help organizations refine their hiring strategies before the gap grows even wider.

Key findings from the report

1. The competition for Atlassian professionals is intensifying

With over two-thirds of hiring managers looking for talent, demand is rising, but the real challenge is securing the right talent.Companies must refine their sourcing and hiring strategies to attract professionals with the skills and experience needed for success.

2. Certifications matter more than ever

83% of hiring managers prefer candidates with Atlassian certifications, recognizing them as a key indicator of expertise.However, a gap exists: Only 45% of employees working on Atlassian tools hold a certification, compared to 64% of contractors, suggesting companies may need to invest in upskilling or explore alternative talent pools.

3. Businesses are underutilizing external expertise

Many companies still rely solely on in-house teams for Atlassian support, even as project complexity increases.Organizations leveraging a mix of employees and vetted contractors report better project outcomes and access to niche expertise, providing greater flexibility to scale resources as needed.

Businesses need to rethink their hiring approach

With competition for Atlassian professionals at an all-time high, companies must explore more flexible and efficient ways to secure the expertise they need.

The current hiring model is slowing teams down. Many organizations rely on in-house HR to find Atlassian talent. Still, without deep technical knowledge, they struggle to properly vet candidates, leading to longer hiring cycles and costly mis-hires.The talent shortage isn’t going away. With fewer professionals committing to long-term careers in the ecosystem, businesses must plan for a more fluid workforce strategy to ensure continuity.Contractors provide a competitive advantage. Hiring experienced, vetted contractors allows teams to access top-tier expertise on demand, ensuring projects stay on track without long hiring delays.

“We believe that Atlassian tools are only as powerful as the people behind them. This report highlights the critical role of expertise in unlocking their full potential and the challenges businesses face in finding the right talent,” says Simon Wood, CEO of Eficode UK and US. “Organizations that understand this intersection of tools and talent will be the ones that drive innovation and long-term success.”

For companies struggling to find the right talent, partnering with an Atlassian-specialized recruitment service like Eficode Contractor Hub provides access to rigorously tested professionals who can integrate quickly and help businesses meet their goals, without the uncertainty of traditional hiring.

Monnit Introduces NIST Detachable Leads to Streamline Compliance Monitoring

Published

June 18, 2026

New hot-swappable lead architecture reduces downtime, simplifies recertification, and helps organizations maintain continuous monitoring.

SALT LAKE CITY, June 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Monnit announced new NIST Standard and Low Temperature and Humidity Detachable Leads for compatible ALTA® Sensor Bases designed to simplify sensor recertification, reduce downtime, and support continuous compliance monitoring.

“Organizations shouldn’t have to choose between maintaining compliance and operational continuity,” said Brad Walters, Founder and CEO of Monnit. “Our detachable lead architecture allows customers to hot-swap certified leads in minutes while preserving traceability and keeping trusted monitoring programs running.”

Each NIST Detachable Lead is uniquely calibrated and designed to support traceability requirements aligned with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standards.

Rather than removing and shipping an entire sensor for recertification, customers can disconnect only the lead, connect a certified replacement, and send the original lead for recalibration. This approach is ideal for pharmaceuticals, healthcare facilities, laboratories, food storage operations, manufacturing environments, and other applications that require calibration records.

In addition to these hot-swappable, removable leads or cables with probes, we offer short Monnit Standard Temperature and Humidity Detachable Non-Leaded Probes that you can connect to compatible sensor bases.

Each NIST Detachable Lead or Probe connects to compatible ALTA Industrial and Enterprise Sensor Bases via sealed, keyed M8 6-pin connectors designed for field installation. Embedded memory within the lead stores unique lead and sensor identification, calibration data, certification information, and traceability records.

Key features and benefits include:

Hot-swappable lead replacement that minimizes downtime and monitoring interruptionsNIST-traceable calibration support and ISO 17025-accredited lab certificationSupport for FDA 21 CFR Part 11 workflows and audit programsAutomatic synchronization of calibration information with iMonnit® SoftwareLogging of lead connection and disconnection events in iMonnitHot-swapping capability while powered on or off for easier servicing

Monnit and its accredited lab partner, Sensor Calibrations, provide 25-month certificates for NIST Detachable Standard Temperature Leads and 13-month certificates for NIST Detachable Low Temperature and Humidity Leads.

Compatible ALTA Sensor Bases automatically recognize connected lead types and maintain digital maintenance records, helping organizations avoid monitoring gaps caused by traditional recertification.

About Monnit Corporation
The origin story of the Internet of Things (IoT) begins with Monnit. Before our inception in 2010, we were already at the forefront of embedding technology into machines and devices to enable them to talk and deliver valuable data to business leaders. Monnit Remote Monitoring Solutions for nearly any industry use case have delivered 72B+ data points in 130+ countries for 90K+ customers. Monnit’s 80+ long-range IoT sensors remotely monitor many conditions such as temperature, light, humidity, water, vibration, pressure, and more. You can analyze data using iMonnit cloud software and get alerts via email, text, push notification, or call when our sensors detect a change you should know.
