What the job involves
- Type: Contractor (possibility of converting to FTE)

- This role covers two primary areas of work: supporting assigned client groups while a team member is on leave, and contributing to a critical HRIS data migration as we implement a new HR system
- This is a great fit for a detail-oriented HR Generalist who is comfortable owning day-to-day operational work, collaborating closely with People Partners and program stakeholders, and navigating a fast-paced environment where priorities shift
- Serve as the primary operational HR contact for assigned client groups
- Manage employee inquiries across People help and communication channels, routing complex matters to the appropriate People Partner
- Run employee lifecycle processes end-to-end, coordinating with relevant cross-functional partners
- Maintain and update HRIS data for assigned client groups, including validating downstream impacts of employee record changes
- Support the rollout of People programs for assigned groups and prepare employee-facing documentation as needed
- Conduct regular audits to ensure data integrity and compliance across employee records
- As a supporting contributor to our HRIS implementation, you'll help the project team with:
- Auditing and cleaning employee data in preparation for migration
- Identifying and flagging data discrepancies or gaps for resolution
- Completing data entry, validation, and QA tasks as directed by the project lead
Our take
Docker supplies a hub and desktop solution to simplify the workflow of app development teams. Originally known for popularising the idea of containerising software, it saw itself outpaced by Kubernetes. However, the company has identified a problem with the growing complexity of containerisation, with some apps consisting of dozens or even hundreds of containers - which is what it now addresses.
Docker has had a difficult time in the past, with 2019 seeing it sell off its enterprise business, reduce its workforce by hundreds, and change its leadership team. As a well known brand and ecosystem for containerisation, however, it aims to lure developers back to its product as well as to take advantage of the growing global demand for app development.
Returning to focus on developers rather than large companies was certainly a gamble, but one that seems to have paid off. The company has returned to profitability and raised Series C funding in 2022, which has been used to hire new talent, ramping up its business, and continuing to develop and refine its product. On top of this bounce back to success, it's also embarked on a series of acquisitions to bolster its business.
