People Operations Specialist Japan

About the role and team

Working at Uber means solving hard problems in a high-stakes, fast-moving environment.

• Navigate shifting priorities and internal complexity to consult with People Partners on organizational changes and job updates.
• Own the data audit process to identify discrepancies and ensure SOX compliance across the employee lifecycle.
• Build and maintain custom reports and metrics to provide real-world business insights into human capital data.
• Unblock technical hurdles during Oracle HCM upgrades by leading testing for security access and business processes.
• Lead the development of standard operating procedures to simplify complex data governance for non-technical stakeholders.

Basic Qualifications

• 2 + years of progressive experience working with employee data in an HRIS.
• Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Information Systems, Business Administration, or equivalent experience.
• Bilingual proficiency in both English and Japanese

Preferred Qualifications

• Proficiency in Oracle HCM or similar enterprise-level data systems.
