Principal TA Systems Architect

Responsibilities

• Own the stack: Serve as system owner and top-tier administrator for Greenhouse, GoodTime, and BrightHire — configuration, permissions, workflows, approval chains, compliance settings, and release management.
• Own the integration layer between TA systems and the rest of the People stack: HRIS, background check, assessments, sourcing, and offer tooling, including API-based integrations and middleware.
• Run intake-to-resolution on system issues: triage, root-cause, fix, and close the loop with whoever reported it.
• Hold the change management discipline the stack needs — sandbox testing, documented configuration decisions, release notes, and user communications.
• Partner across the People organization and drive the roadmap: Work directly with recruiters, sourcers, coordinators, and TA leadership to find where the process actually breaks, and translate that into system solutions instead of more manual workarounds.
• Partner with People Systems, People Analytics, IT, Security, and Legal so TA systems fit the broader architecture: clean data flows, sane access models, defensible privacy and records practices.
• Build and own a multi-quarter TA systems roadmap, and make the case for what is worth doing and what is not.
• Evaluate new tooling — including AI-enabled recruiting tools — with real rigor: pilot design, success criteria, security review, and an honest recommendation.
• Manage the vendors
• Own day-to-day vendor relationships and act as the escalation point for outages, defects, and support issues.
