What you’ll do

  • Facilitate interviews, workshops, and discussions with diverse stakeholders, ensuring different perspectives are captured, aligned, and clearly documented.
  • Consolidate inputs into structured business requirements and user stories for product and engineering teams.
  • Analyze and document current HR processes and data flows between systems and create clear visual diagrams of workflows and integrations.
  • Work closely with the product managers to design future-state solutions, including low-fidelity prototypes and UX concepts that help stakeholders visualize changes and provide feedback.
  • Prepare and maintain documentation for new and existing processes and systems, including requirements, specifications, process flow diagrams, data dictionaries, and user guides.
  • Define and track key product metrics to evaluate the effectiveness and adoption of internal HR technology solutions.

What we’re looking for

  • Mid- to senior-level experience as a business analyst or product manager, ideally working on internal products or platforms.
  • Experience with HR technology projects or internal tools is a strong plus.
  • A solid understanding of core HR processes (e.g. recruiting, onboarding, performance reviews, payroll, benefits).
  • Experience working with both SaaS HR systems and custom in-house tools.
  • Strong skills in gathering and documenting business requirements, mapping processes, and working with complex rules and dependencies.
  • Proficiency with prototyping and diagramming tools, and the ability to communicate ideas visually.
  • A basic understanding of software development and system architecture.
  • Comfort working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively across functions and with external vendors.
  • Working proficiency in English.

HR Technology Implementation & Integration

  • Lead end‑to‑end implementation of new HR tools and platforms (e.g., HRIS, ATS, performance management, learning, payroll‑adjacent tools).
  • Own system configuration, testing, data migration, go‑live planning, and post‑implementation stabilization.
  • Manage integrations between HR systems and other internal platforms (e.g., finance, identity management, analytics tools).
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for HR technology vendors, implementation partners, and internal technical teams.

Product Ownership & Roadmap Management

  • Act as product owner for assigned HR technology products, defining vision, roadmap, and success metrics.
  • Gather, prioritize, and translate business requirements into functional specifications and user stories.
  • Balance user needs, technical feasibility, compliance requirements, and cost considerations.
  • Manage product backlogs, enhancements, and system upgrades.

Internal Process Review & Optimization

  • Review existing HR processes (e.g., hiring, onboarding, performance reviews, employee data management) to identify inefficiencies and manual work.
  • Design improved, scalable processes aligned with best practices and business objectives.
  • Partner with HR stakeholders to standardize workflows across teams and regions where applicable.

Automation & Continuous Improvement

  • Identify opportunities to automate HR workflows using existing systems, integrations, or low‑code/no‑code tools.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives to reduce manual effort, errors, and cycle time.
  • Monitor system usage, adoption, and performance; propose data‑driven improvements.

Stakeholder Management & Change Enablement

  • Collaborate closely with HR leadership and functional teams to ensure solutions meet operational and strategic needs.
  • Support change management activities, including communication, training, and documentation for end users.
  • Ensure alignment with data privacy, security, and regulatory requirements.
