  • Develop people analytics and operational dashboards
  • Build reporting and analytics capabilities that help leaders understand workforce trends, hiring progress, engagement signals, and organizational health
  • Enable technology-driven operations across the company
  • Partner with teams beyond the People function to identify opportunities where automation, tooling, and agent-based workflows can improve internal operations
  • Partner closely with the VP, People
  • Help design the long-term architecture of a modern People function and the systems required to support a scaling organization

What You’ll Need

  • You'll likely:
    • Think in systems, workflows, and infrastructure
    • Enjoy simplifying and solving complex operational problems
    • Have embraced automation, internal tooling, and emerging agent-based systems
    • Have experience creating reporting and analytics in complex organizations
    • Are comfortable experimenting with new, unproven technologies
