You will own a specific functional domain: Core HR, Org & Positions; Compensation, Self-Service & Reporting; or Absence/Leave, Regional Specifics & Integrations.

This role is a chance to help build a modern HR tech stack from the ground up and directly shape the daily experience of every employee in the company.

- Perform gap analysis between the system’s standard functionality and our requirements, working with the vendor and implementation partner to find the best configuration for each process
- Configure functional settings in the new HRIS, such as org structures and positions, compensation cycles and pay bands, or country-specific leave and absence rules, getting the most out of standard functionality and avoiding unnecessary customization
- Define data mapping requirements for a clean migration from legacy tools, and develop and run UAT scripts to confirm the system meets functional requirements
- Partner with HR Systems Engineers to make sure data flows correctly between the core HRIS and peripheral systems
- Own your functional domain end-to-end after go-live as the in-house Subject Matter Expert: resolve issues and keep evolving processes as business needs and the system change
- Create user guides, documentation, and training materials for HR admins and employees, and monitor post-go-live adoption
- 3+ years of experience as an HR Analyst, HRIS Analyst, or Business Analyst focused on HR technology

- Proven ability to document complex business processes and translate them into system configuration
- Strong stakeholder-management skills and the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical HR partners
- A solution-first approach, with the ability to find root causes rather than symptoms and a preference for standard functionality over custom development
