Jobs can send email notifications though that configuration is per
pipeline so somewhat clunky just for a single job. We've also found that
when we sent email in the past no one read it. This was a big reason for
the OpenStack Health project which tracks job runs in a nice web ui.

You can find the networking-calico health dashboard at
http://status.openstack.org/openstack-health/#/g/project/openstack~2Fnetworking-calico.
The dashboard itself doesn't provide notifications but the service does
via rss. You can subscribe to networking-calico rss notifications at
http://health.openstack.org/runs/key/project/openstack/networking-calico/recent/rss.
Hopefully you find one or both of these options to be a viable solution
to your need.

Hope this helps,
Clark
