- You will continue building the foundation for people analytics, including data pipelines, dashboards, and reporting standards across systems like Workday, Looker, Greenhouse, and Lattice.
- You will partner closely with People Partners and business leaders to identify key metrics and deliver actionable insights across the employee lifecycle (e.g., hiring, attrition, engagement, organization health)
