The Opportunity

The Employee Data Ingestion (HRIS) team is responsible for building and supporting a stable, scalable and future proof platform for our customers to bring their employee data into the Culture Amp platform. This role is a key part of enabling us to scale from helping improve the world of work for 4 million to 100 million people.

The team will own the design and execution of building out a new ingestion pipeline platform. Taking learnings from our past endeavors you will help shape the future of how we ingest and deliver employee data from 3rd parties to the rest of the Culture Amp platform. This requires careful consideration to be able to quickly and cheaply scale to the high ingestion demands of our customers, while keeping maintenance and support issues to a minimum.
