Job description

At eBay, we're more than a global ecommerce leader — we’re changing the way the world shops and sells. Our platform empowers millions of buyers and sellers in more than 190 markets around the world. We’re committed to pushing boundaries and leaving our mark as we reinvent the future of ecommerce for enthusiasts.

Our customers are our compass, authenticity thrives, bold ideas are welcome, and everyone can bring their unique selves to work — every day. We're in this together, sustaining the future of our customers, our company, and our planet.

Join a team of passionate thinkers, innovators, and dreamers — and help us connect people and build communities to create economic opportunity for all.

The Role

• Find opportunities to use AI and automation to personalize learning, improve content discoverability, reduce administrative effort, and support skills‑based development.
• Use data, user feedback, and operational metrics to identify friction points, measure adoption, and recommend continuous improvements.
• Develop and maintain reports, dashboards, and insights to support learning operations, compliance, adoption, and business decision‑making.
• Provide production support and issue resolution while identifying root causes and scalable improvements.
• Support change management, communications, training, and adoption for new learning technology capabilities.
• Partner with IT and vendors to support integrations, data flows, technical dependencies, and platform governance.
