The opportunity
MongoDB is looking for a technical people-first, and execution-obsessed leader to lead the Recruiting Operations team. As the operational backbone of Talent Acquisition, the RecOps team establishes and maintains the foundational infrastructure that makes scalable, high-velocity hiring possible.
What you'll do
Lead the RecOps Team: Drive the vision and strategy for the CoreOps team, aligning your roadmap with overall Talent Acquisition (TA) and business goals. You will take full ownership of the three core sub-pillars, taking an innovative and bold approach to identifying and executing large-scale transformation initiatives
Own the TA Tooling Roadmap & RecTech Modernization: In partnership with HR Tech, establish and oversee the TA technology stack and vendor relationships. You will actively manage the TA tooling roadmap with our Recruiting Product Manager, leading the discovery, implementation, onboarding, offboarding, and systematic, data-focused evaluation of tools. This includes hands-on experimentation with automations and co-leading our AI strategy
Champion Predictive Talent Intelligence: Partner with People Analytics to advance the use of recruiting analytics and define key metrics of success. While you will oversee long-term data integrity and self-service reporting, you must also be highly hands-on—using Google Sheets and advanced formulas to manipulate data, generate actionable insights, and provide ad-hoc reporting
Optimize Processes & Workflows: Redesign core recruiting processes to improve operational rigor across the hiring lifecycle. You will act as a strategic thought partner, working closely with cross-functional People Team partners to ensure that your redesigned workflows operate seamlessly in line with other broader People processes and systems
Drive Governance & Compliance: Own TA Policy, Governance, and Compliance as a horizontal pillar across all initiatives and in alignment with our broader security, legal and people teams. You will define and oversee official guidelines, standards, and oversight (e.g., Global Recruiting Policy, Approval Hierarchies, Data Privacy) to guarantee control and adherence to all laws (e.g., EEO/OFCCP)
Act as a subject matter expert and strategic thought partner, utilizing deep: knowledge of the internal and external hiring landscape to lead and drive key operational projects with cross-functional teams. This ensures solutions adapt to evolving business needs
What they're looking for
- Provide guidance and mentorship to your team, acting as an exceptional leader: who plays an active role in guiding and upleveling individuals. You will foster the professional development of a relatively junior team while ensuring deliverables are aligned with the overarching TA strategy
