The People Systems & Solutions team designs the technology workflows, processes, and data that power Apollo's People organization. This ecosystem spans the full employee and talent lifecycle, including recruiting, onboarding, organizational structure, compensation, performance, compliance, reporting, and analytics.

- Translating complex business needs into simple, scalable processes, requirements, and system configurations across the employee and talent lifecycle
- Leading the evaluation, implementation, and ongoing management of People technology vendors, ensuring platforms deliver measurable value and work together effectively
- Improving People data governance, reporting, and analytics while identifying practical AI and automation opportunities that make work simpler and support better decisions
- Partnering across People, IT, Data, Payroll, Finance, and Legal teams on cross-functional initiatives, aligning stakeholders and driving decisions without direct authority

REQUIREMENTS:
- 7+ years of experience in People Systems, People Operations, HR technology, business systems, or a related field
