Job name: Analytics Engineer, HR Analytics

Company: Elastic

Location: United States    

Job description:
Elastic, the Search AI Company, enables
everyone to find the answers they need
in real time, using all their data, at
scale — unleashing the potential of
businesses and people. The Elastic
Search AI Platform, used by more than
50% of the Fortune 500, brings together
the precision of search and the
intelligence of AI to enable everyone to
accelerate the results that matter. By
taking advantage of all structured and
unstructured data — securing and
protecting private information more
effectively — Elastic’s complete,
cloud-based solutions for search,
security, and observability help
organizations deliver on the promise of
AI.What is The Role
This is a hands-on build role that will
develop and maintain HR's data
pipelines on our GCP/BigQuery/dbt data
model, with an AI-powered analytics
layer on top. Core platform
infrastructure is provisioned centrally;
you'll help configure HR-specific
pipelines and dbt modeling work on top
of it, in partnership with our data
scientist, and stand up recruiting
reporting and insights as the first
production use case on the new stack.
This role reports directly to the
Director of HR Analytics, with high
visibility into architecture and
stakeholder-facing decisions from day
one.
Your mission is to move the organization
away from manual reporting and toward a
mature, self-service environment where
senior stakeholders get decision-ready
answers, not just data.
What You Will Be Doing
Build and Deploy Scalable Analytics

Build and maintain data pipelines in
BigQuery/dbt, on infrastructure
provisioned by the central data platform
team, that link HR data across the
employee lifecycle (Workday, Greenhouse,
Qualtrics, ServiceNow), so we can trace
how hiring decisions affect long-term
engagement and retention.
Support and enhance the AI-powered
analytics user experience.
Develop scalable, self-service
dashboards that reduce time spent on
reactive, one-off data requests.
Implement data governance practices
(access controls, validation,
documentation) in line with team
standards for sensitive HR and
compensation data.
Build data proficiency across the
broader HR team as part of the shift to
self-service.

 
Recruiting Reporting and Insight Engine

Automate recurring recruiting reports to
eliminate manual data wrangling.
Translate talent data into insights that
identify pipeline bottlenecks, improve
candidate experience, and improve hiring
efficiency.
Monitor recruiting data for anomalies
and build validation checks to establish
one version of the truth across systems.

 
Technical Requirements

2+ years of hands-on experience building
and maintaining data pipelines in Google
Cloud Platform (GCP).
Strong SQL and Python skills.
Direct experience extracting and
modeling data from at least one major
HRIS or ATS platform (e.g., Workday,
Greenhouse) via its reporting or API
layer. General dashboard-level reporting
experience is not a substitute.
Demonstrated ability to build custom
dashboards and data visualizations using
standard BI platforms (e.g., Looker,
Tableau) or code-based environments
(e.g., Python, Streamlit, Plotly).

What You Bring

Broad understanding of HR programs and
metrics across the employee lifecycle,
including recruiting.
Strong storytelling and presentation
skills for both VP/executive and
non-technical audiences.
Experience working across geographies
and time zones, tailoring insights to
diverse audiences.
A point of view on AI/LLM-based
analytics tools and how they simplify
insight delivery – direct experience
implementing one is a plus.
A builder's approach: comfortable
creating solutions, frameworks, and
processes with limited existing
scaffolding, while working within a set
architectural direction.
