- Conduct research studies and analyses to support programmatic decision making and key initiatives across the employee lifecycle
- Build and maintain dashboards, reports, and recurring metrics readouts (e.g., hiring funnel, performance, movement, retention, sentiment, org design)
- Maintain high standards of data quality, privacy, and governance when working with sensitive employee information
Who You Are:
- 2–5+ years of experience in people analytics, business analytics, or a related quantitative role
- Strong analytical skills with proficiency in SQL and Google Sheets, and experience working with BI tools (e.g., Tableau, Metabase, Looker); proficiency in Python a plus
- Familiarity with people systems and data sources (e.g., ATS, HRIS, LMS, Survey Platforms), as well as metrics throughout the employee lifecycle
- Strong communicator able to distill complex data into compelling insights for business and People teams
- A naturally curious, analytical mindset with a drive to uncover the “why” behind the data
- Ability to maintain privacy, maturity and discretion while handling sensitive data
