Job description
This is People Operations at Lattice
At Lattice, we’re passionate about building the future of HR technology — for our customers and for ourselves. As Sr. HR Systems Manager, you’ll be at the center of this evolution: owning our own Lattice HR tech strategy and operations while partnering closely with product, engineering, and customer-facing teams to shape the future of our tools.
This is a highly strategic, visible, and technical role: part builder, part advisor, and part advocate. You will manage our internal HR tech stack, drive automation and integration initiatives, and also influence the broader direction of Lattice’s products by offering insight from both internal use and customer conversations.
This role requires both technical depth and cross-functional leadership, helping define (and re-define) what best-in-class HR technology of tomorrow looks like.

Strategic HR Systems Leadership
- Define and execute a scalable HR technology strategy, balancing operational excellence, compliance, and end-user experience for Latticians.

- Support customer sales conversations and marketing initiatives, sharing best practices for leveraging Lattice’s HRIS capabilities.
- Manage and mentor an HR Systems specialist, fostering technical growth, strategic thinking, and operational excellence.
- Drive process standardization and documentation best practices, ensuring consistency, scalability, and compliance across all systems.

Build and maintain strong data governance practices to ensure consistency, accuracy, and compliance across all HR systems.
Lead renewal strategy for third-party vendors, in collaboration with finance and procurement teams, focusing on cost-effectiveness and long-term value.

What You Bring to the Table:

- Strong expertise in HR data management, system integrations, and automation strategies.
- Experience influencing product roadmaps through internal testing, stakeholder feedback, and customer advocacy.
- Skilled at communicating complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences and translating business needs into technical solutions.
- Hands-on experience with HR system migrations, payroll transitions, and large-scale process improvements.
- Deep understanding of HR technology trends and a passion for leveraging technology to modernize and enhance the employee experience.
- Strong leadership, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills.
- Experience with the Lattice platform is a great bonus, but not required.
