• You love data and systems integration, and you are the natural bridge between HR and IT
• You listen, ask the right questions and turn the voice of the business into a clear technology choice
• You look beyond the problem in front of you and come up with solutions nobody asked for but everyone ends up using
• You know the HR technology market, follow the trends and bring the best ideas in
• You build for scale from day one, not as an afterthought

• You thrive across cultures and languages, working with both our French and Dutch teams
• Experience in a private equity-backed or fast-growing organization is a plus
• You are a builder, not a maintainer

• Lead implementation and migration of core systems, from HRIS and payroll integrations to performance, talent and recruitment tools
• Build with scalability as a starting principle: solutions that grow with the organization
• Listen to HR colleagues, managers and employees and translate input into technology choices that solve real problems
• Look beyond the obvious, spot opportunities, and bring in AI where it makes a real difference (recruitment, onboarding, analytics, self-service)
• Keep a pulse on the HR tech market and bring the best ideas into Solo
• Own data quality, integration and governance across HR systems and deliver dashboards and reporting for leadership insights
• Collaborate with IT, Finance and HR leads in Talent Management, Engagement & Internal Communications and Change Management; manage vendor relationships
