Sr. Analyst, Employee Lifecycle Data (Workday)
Ramp$90k-$120k / yr
About the role
Own Workday HCM employee data changes across the full lifecycle, including promotions, transfers, reorganizations, compensation cycles, and audits. Build reconciliation and error-reporting processes for integrations with benefits providers and international payroll, then find root causes and improve controls with HRIS, Payroll, and Benefits teams. This new role starts before the January 1 Workday go-live and requires 2–5+ years in HR operations, HRIS, or HR data.
Our Employee Lifecycle team makes sure every Ramp employee has a great experience, from their first day through their last and through every change in between. As Sr. Analyst, Employee Lifecycle Data, you'll own and look after the employee data behind all of it. You'll keep our Workday data accurate and well structured, and you'll make sure it flows correctly into the systems that depend on it.
This is a new role in its current scope. You'll own employee data changes from start to finish, manage the data structure that shapes our org, and set up reconciliation and error reporting across our integrations. We're looking for someone who gets the details right, finds the root cause when data breaks, and builds processes that scale as Ramp grows.
We're moving to Workday on January 1, and we want this person on board before go-live so they can run our employee data changes from day one.
