Gravel bike specs:

• Shimano XT 2x11 shifters, mechanical • Shimano GRX FD & RD, 11-speed/mech • 105 crankset, 50-34

The rear shifting is not smooth, especially when I transition to the 4th gear. It jumps to the 5th gear, but feels smooth with the other cogs.

What can I do to make the shifting smooth? Thank you!

There is no compatibility between any Shimano road 11 front or rear derailleur and any Shimano mountain shifter.

Use one of the flat bar road 2x11 sets such as SL-RS700.
