About the role

We are hiring a Staff People Business Process & Systems Partner to help stand up Business Process & Systems, a new function within Global People Operations.

Responsibilities

  • Own Workday HCM business process design, configuration requirements, and change management in partnership with HR, IT Systems - translating ambiguous operational needs into scalable, well-governed system design.
  • Own data integrity for the Workday population: define data quality standards, run regular audits, and close gaps before they surface as problems for Payroll, Total Rewards, or People Business Partners.
  • Own SOX compliance readiness for People Operations - audit preparation, evidence pulls, and control documentation. This is CoreWeave's first year of SOX compliance, and this function exists so it is never reactive.
  • Own reporting and analytics for Global People Operations, building proactive and on-demand reporting that gives leadership clean, reliable data to act on.
  • Own policy operationalization and benefits administration configuration in Workday - acknowledgments, document management, enrollment, life events, and carrier feeds - in partnership with Employee Lifecycle, and Total Rewards on plan design.
  • Identify where manual work has accumulated across People Operations and design the automation, process redesign, or system configuration that eliminates it.
  • Define how this team operates: intake, a lean sprint cadence for prioritization, documentation standards, and what "done" means - the operating structure this function runs on as it grows.
  • Partner directly with the Director, Global People Operations and Employee Lifecycle Manager on function design and roadmap - since Business Process & Systems is new, you will help define what this team owns, how it operates, and where it grows next.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in People Operations, HR Operations, or HRIS, with deep hands-on Workday HCM expertise - you design and configure business processes, not just execute transactions within them.
  • Recognized as a go-to Workday expert - you troubleshoot configuration issues, translate ambiguous operational needs into system requirements, and are the person others come to when something breaks or needs to scale.
  • SOX or audit-readiness experience - you have owned or meaningfully contributed to compliance audit preparation, evidence documentation, and control design in a regulated or newly regulated environment.
  • Demonstrated systems redesign experience - you have taken a broken or ad hoc process and redesigned it end-to-end, not just patched it. You think in systems, not tickets.
  • Data integrity and reporting fluency - you build reporting and analytics that leaders actually use, and you hold yourself and others to a high standard on data accuracy.
  • Cross-functional influence without authority - you have driven initiatives that required alignment across Payroll, IT, Legal, or Total Rewards without a formal reporting relationship to those teams.
  • High proficiency with Google Suite products and Slack.

Qualifications

  • Preferred Qualifications: Experience mentoring or setting technical standards for more junior People Operations or HRIS team members, experience building a function or team from the ground up, background in a hypergrowth or AI-native company, experience with Jira Service Management or a similar ITSM platform, active use of AI tools to improve process design, documentation, or reporting speed.

Pay

The base salary range for this role is $149,000 to $198,000. The starting salary will be determined based on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and market location.
