Senior People & Talent Operations Specialist

About the role

This is not a traditional HR operations role. You will spend approx. 50%-60% of your time within Ashby. We're looking for someone who sees systems as opportunities, not limitations. Someone who enjoys finding inefficiencies before they become problems. Someone who notices patterns, identifies root causes, and proactively creates solutions. You'll serve as a key partner to our Recruiting team, our People Program Partner, People Ops Business Partner, hiring managers, and employees while helping us maximize the value of our technology ecosystem-particularly Ashby. We're early adopters of Ashby's People Workflows and see tremendous opportunity to continue building automations, communications, onboarding experiences, and operational efficiencies that improve both employee and administrator experiences. The right person for this role loves connecting dots. One hour you might be building an onboarding workflow, auditing data quality, or configuring an automation in Ashby. The next you might be analyzing adoption trends, identifying a process gap, partnering with Recruiting on preboarding logistics, or translating employee experience data into actionable recommendations. You'll have significant ownership and autonomy in this role. We're looking for someone who doesn't wait to be told what needs attention-they see it, investigate it, and either solve it independently or bring thoughtful solutions to the table when collaboration is needed. What You'll Be Responsible For As Senior People & Talent Operations Specialist, you will: Own and continuously improve our preboarding and share onboarding experience across systems
