People Analytics Lead

People Analytics Lead:

AppLovin is looking for a People Analytics Lead to join our exceptional team. Reporting to our Director of People Operations, Tech & Analytics, this individual will play a crucial role in defining and executing our people analytics strategy at AppLovin. Our goal is to deliver relevant, actionable insights to our stakeholders and this role will work to accomplish this across the whole data pipeline: covering everything from ETL to building dashboards to sharing synthesized, easily-digestible insights that drive real impact. Your mission is to transform data into compelling narratives that inform strategic decisions, driving organizational health and development.

Who you are:

• You’re a storyteller. You’re able to synthesize complex data into simple, actionable insights that resonate with our stakeholders.
• You have strong technical skills. You’re comfortable with SQL and scripting and you’re comfortable working in depth with our source systems like Workday and Greenhouse.
• You have proven experience using Tableau (or a similar tool) to deploy dashboards, visualizations & insights to stakeholders.
• You’re highly competent with Excel or Sheets – you know the basics well (lookups, filter functions, querying) and you’re comfortable writing scripts or macros where relevant.
• You’re an internal consultant – you seek to understand business needs and you appropriately scope requests, synthesize insights, and recommend solutions to key business partners.
• You have 5+ years of experience in the people analytics space

Some things you’ll do:

• Build strong relationships with our stakeholders, understand their needs, and use that to inform our people analytics roadmap.
• Build the necessary data pipeline to extract data from our systems of record and deploy it in automated, easily-accessible ways (e.g., Tableau)
• Partner with the People Leadership team and support the Chief People Officer in preparations materials for Leadership Team and Board Meetings.
• Enable transparency and insight into our organizational health – defining key metrics, understanding insights and using these metrics & insights to compel stakeholders to action.
• Serve as an analytical subject matter expert for the myriad projects that arise within HR: bringing analytical expertise to everything from compensation planning to recruiting analytics to quantifying drivers of attrition.
