Talent Operations Manager

Join Render as a Talent Operations Manager, where you'll be responsible for architecting our ATS, building essential reporting, and leading process changes to help us scale while maintaining quality. You'll work closely with various teams and ensure our hiring data is accurate and actionable. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys creating clear operating systems from complex, fast-moving work. Benefits include a monthly commuter stipend, fully stocked kitchen, generous parental leave, and comprehensive medical coverage.

• Architect and manage the Applicant Tracking System (ATS), ensuring it meets the needs of the hiring process and integrates with other systems.
• Lead the reporting layer for Talent leadership and hiring teams, including dashboards, ad hoc reporting, metric definitions, and visibility into hiring plan progress.
• Identify patterns in recurring Talent Operations requests, improve workflows, automate repeatable work, and make the right processes self-serve.

• Deep ATS expertise, particularly Ashby. You can design how the system should work, not just maintain it, across custom fields, access roles, interview plans, automations, integrations, and reporting foundations
• 5+ years in recruiting, recruiting operations, talent operations, people systems, or a similar systems and data role in a high-growth environment
• Clear written communication, strong documentation habits, high attention to detail, and good judgment in a fast-moving environment
• Proficient in Google Sheets or Excel. You can pull data together from multiple sources and turn the result into a case a cross-functional partner can follow
• Strong analytical skills. You can take a vague question, decide what data would answer it, and build the report yourself
• Experience owning data integrity across an ATS and the systems around it, including reconciling against a hiring plan or another source of truth
• Strong program and change management skills. You can roll out a new process, teach it, measure adoption, and keep the team aligned
• If this role excites you but you don’t meet every single requirement, we’d still love to hear from you—your unique experience might be just what we need
• Experience building or scaling a recruiting operations function at a post-Series B/C company
• Experience supporting technical recruiting teams or high-volume engineering hiring
• AI fluency, with good judgment about where AI helps, where it adds risk, and what checks are needed before others rely on the output
• Hands-on experience with the Ashby API or ATS-based reporting
• Exposure to headcount planning or headcount management systems
