Talent Systems Analyst

About the role

This role focuses on bridging the gap between business needs and HR technology within GR8 Tech, a B2B iGaming platform provider. The Talent Systems Analyst will be responsible for understanding requirements from HR stakeholders and translating them into functional and technical specifications for various Talent systems, including HRIS, ATS, and LMS. This involves defining business rules, workflows, and permissions, ensuring the systems effectively support the company's talent management processes.

A key aspect of the position is managing the People data architecture, which includes defining field taxonomy, naming conventions, data ownership, and governance rules. The analyst will also identify opportunities for workflow automation using low-code/no-code tools and API integrations to streamline employee lifecycle processes. Furthermore, the role involves conducting feasibility studies for AI use cases within HR and defining metrics for success.

Success in this role means driving the technical execution of system rollouts and major updates, from discovery to deployment, and ensuring robust talent analytics. The analyst will translate business questions into BI requirements, defining metric logic and data sources for dashboards in tools like Tableau or Power BI. Collaboration with IT, Security, Finance, and Engineering is essential for system access, integrations, and data flow management, along with overseeing work from contractors and vendors.
