In General configuration set "This project is parameterized" checkbox to true, and set String/stash/choice/int parameter as you wish for , the name field is your variable name. In your dev project , in the gradle file just grab this variable by calling simple getEnv method.

String inputFromJenkins = System.getenv('VARIABLE_NAME')
println('VARIABLE_NAME = ' + inputFromJenkins)
