Summary:
The HR Technology & Reporting Analyst is a technical partner supporting Human Resources through system management, data integration, and analytics.

- Ensure reporting is accurate, up-to-date, and aligned with business needs.
- Work closely with data engineers to optimize reporting pipelines and data availability.
System Administration & Technical Support
- Serve as a technical backup to the HRIS Manager for high-level system updates and configuration.
- Manage backend adjustments such as text changes, field updates, and API connections in Dayforce.
- Troubleshoot and document system issues to ensure smooth data flow and functionality.
System Enhancements & Integration
- Connect to Dayforce from the backend to extract, analyze, and manipulate data.
- Participate in system upgrades, enhancements, and new feature rollouts.
- Collaborate with both HR and IT teams to implement platform improvements.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
