What the Jenkins Logo Colors Mean?
The Jenkins logo colors sit on a butler, which is the joke the name carries: Jenkins is a servant's name, and the software is the thing that quietly runs your builds. The full mascot is a detailed illustration with a face, a bow tie and a moustache, and it uses about a dozen colors, none of which survive being printed on a sticker or shown at 24px. The single-color silhouette is the version that works, and #D24939 is the value the project quotes. A muted red rather than a bright one also avoids reading as a failed build.

Brand colors are chosen for recognition, not for legibility. A failing value here is normal. It means use it as a fill, not as text.
