• Inventory and assess internal and vendor-managed systems connecting to Data Cloud, coordinating data access, mapping, connectivity, and source-system readiness.
• Support data modeling, transformation logic, governance, lineage, testing, and documentation.
• Help establish a scalable workforce data foundation that reduces manual data movement and enables integrated cross-functional analytics.
• Support recurring and ad hoc data audits, reconciliations, and reporting requests for Connected Workplace 2.0.
• Validate source data, business logic, calculations, and reporting outputs.
• Investigate discrepancies and coordinate resolution across HRIS, IT, Corporate Security, and other data owners.
• Support reporting enhancements and data quality improvements.
• Perform required manual data refreshes and validation for GAC reporting and data automation while automation work continues.
• Continue automation of existing connectors, including SmartRecruiters.
• Troubleshoot data loads, transformations, and reporting dependencies.
• Transition recurring manual processes toward reliable, scalable automated solutions.
• Perform ongoing manual refreshes and data validation for the DEI Dashboard.
• Audit the current DEI Dashboard data feed and prepare for transition to a Workday-based connection.
• Reconcile source data and business logic and support testing and cutover activities.
• Connect and validate required Workday and SmartRecruiters data sources for the SmartRecruiters Integration Audit Dashboard.
• Establish join logic, identifiers, business rules, and exception handling across systems.
• Build and enhance audit reporting to identify data gaps, mismatches, and integration issues.
• Document source data, business logic, refresh processes, and data ownership.
• Respond to day-to-day workforce data, reporting, audit, and analytical requests from HR and business stakeholders.
• Investigate and resolve data discrepancies and reporting issues across systems and functions.
• Produce analyses and insights that help stakeholders understand workforce trends and support business decisions.

• Communicate effectively with senior business stakeholders and technical teams, translating functional requirements into technical solutions.
• Proactively engage data owners, functional leaders, IT partners, and vendors to gather requirements, resolve issues, and drive work to completion.
• Translate data into clear, decision-relevant insights rather than simply delivering reports or datasets.
• Work independently, manage multiple concurrent priorities, identify risks early, and balance immediate operational needs with long-term scalability and automation.
