Experience:

• Experience configuring or integrating tools like GoodTime, Workday, or recruiting CRMs
• Strong understanding of end-to-end recruiting workflows, including sourcing, interview scheduling, offers, and onboarding
• Ability to work cross-functionally and communicate technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
• Experience driving process transformation or systems modernization initiatives in partnership with Talent Acquisition
• Analytical mindset and familiarity with structured problem-solving approaches to system challenges
• Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Business, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
• Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with Workday–Greenhouse integrations or custom middleware
  • Prior involvement in tool selection, vendor evaluation, or implementation projects
  • Familiarity with data governance, access control, and privacy/security standards in enterprise applications
  • Background working in Agile/Scrum environments and using tools like Jira or Confluence
  • Hands-on experience building custom reports or dashboards using system-native tools or BI platforms

Benefits:

• Extended health and dental coverage options, along with life insurance and disability benefits

• RRSP plan to help save for your future
• In addition to provincial observed holidays, salaried team members are covered under Lyft's flexible paid time off policy. The policy allows team members to take off as much time as they need (with manager approval). Hourly team members get 15 days paid time off, with an additional day for each year of service
