ROLE SUMMARY
This is a senior hands on role that bridges deep HRIS expertise with strategic People Operations leadership. As our People Operations & Technology lead, you will own the architecture, configuration, and continuous optimization of our HR technology ecosystem with HiBob as the cornerstone, while simultaneously driving the operational excellence of the full employee lifecycle.
You will be equally comfortable getting into the detail of a complex HiBob workflow configuration and presenting a data-driven process improvement roadmap to senior stakeholders. This role is explicitly hands-on you will be expected to build, not just direct. You bring the curiosity, discipline, and craft to design systems from the ground up, and the strategic clarity to ensure everything you build serves a larger vision of employee experience and business scale.
You will be the escalation point and the most technically capable person in the team. As Multiverse continues to scale, this team will grow with it, and you will play an active role in shaping who joins and how the Ops team develops.
