The mission

We need a People Services "frontline operator” who can handle a high-volume HR ticket queue with extreme accuracy, execute Workday HR transactions, and improve/automate workflows in a fast-moving, ambiguous startup environment.

Requirements

Hard requirements:

  1. High-volume HR/People Services ticketing (Jira required)
    • You have owned an HR helpdesk queue in Jira (or Jira Service Management) handling ~40–100 tickets/day or 200 tickets/week.
    • You can describe triage, SLAs, macros/templates, KB articles, and recurring issue prevention.
  2. Workday HRIS transactions (hands-on required)
    • You have performed day-to-day Workday People Ops transactions (examples: onboarding steps, job/comp changes support, terminations/offboarding tasks, org updates, audits, reporting, data corrections).
  3. 2–5 years total professional experience in People Ops / HR Ops / People Services / HR Shared Services
    • Title-level fit: Coordinator / Specialist / Analyst (clearly hands-on and willing to do queue work).
  4. Startup or high-growth experience 
    • You've worked where processes weren't fully defined and you had to create order quickly.
  5. Spreadsheet-heavy operations
    • Advanced Excel/Google Sheets (lookups, pivots, conditional logic, cleaning datasets), comfortable with large data sets and precise data entry.
  6. Extreme accuracy at speed
    • You can explain your QA method (checklists, audits, reconciliation, peer review, error-proofing) and provide examples.
  7. Process improvement automation mindset (must show proof)
    • You've reduced cycle time, error rate, touches, or ticket volume via SOPs, routing rules, macros, templates, documentation, or automation.
    • Bonus if you've used AI tools to streamline ops.

What you'll do (day 1)

  • Run a Jira-based People Services ticket queue (majority of the role)
  • Resolve employee inquiries with high accuracy and excellent written communication
  • Execute Workday administrative tasks and data updates
  • Greenhouse (ATS) experience
  • Perform data entry and maintain clean, auditable records
  • Build/maintain SOPs, macros/templates, and knowledge base content to reduce repeat tickets
  • Identify workflow gaps and implement improvements/automation

Nice-to-haves (boosts ranking, not required)

  • Contractor onboarding/offboarding workflows
  • Jira Service Management admin familiarity
  • Experience building ticket dashboards / reporting

Non-negotiables (will not be submitted):

  • Have no HR helpdesk ticket-queue ownership (email-only HR admin isn't enough)
  • Have no Workday hands-on transaction experience
  • Are primarily HR Generalists, Recruiters, Benefits Specialists, or HRBPs (this is operational shared services)
  • Are outside of EST time zone
  • Want strategic program management vs. hands-on queue data work

Interview proof points (what we'll test)

  • Ticket volume SLA management (Jira)
  • Workday transaction competency
  • Spreadsheet/data quality rigor
  • Examples of ambiguity handling measurable workflow improvements
  • Communication quality (clear, proactive, concise)
