Talent Operations Partner, Planet

• Bachelor’s Degree
• 2+ years of professional experience in recruiting operations, talent operations, HR operations, or program coordination at a technology company or similarly dynamic environment
• Experience managing or supporting an intern, early talent, or campus recruiting program — including the logistics, stakeholder communication, and coordination required to run a multi-department cohort program smoothly
• Familiarity with applicant tracking systems, including data entry, workflow navigation, reporting, and basic configuration
• Effective project management skills: you can manage multiple concurrent workstreams, track deliverables and deadlines, and communicate progress to stakeholders without being micromanaged
• Effective organizational skills and attention to detail — recruiting operations is a high-volume, high-precision function where small errors in offer letters, approval chains, or compliance documentation create real downstream problems
• Clear written and verbal communication skills — you will draft process documentation, communicate with hiring managers across the company, and correspond with intern candidates who are forming their first impression of Planet
• A process improvement mindset — you don’t just run the process, you question whether it’s the right process. You look for bottlenecks, redundancies, and manual steps that could be automated or eliminated
• Comfort working in a team that is actively building and improving its own infrastructure — the Talent Operations function is evolving, and you need to be energized by contributing to that build rather than expecting a fully mature playbook

Desirable

• The Talent Operations team is responsible for all of it — and we are looking for a Talent Operations Partner to step in and own critical pieces of that work
• As Talent Operations Partner, you will serve two primary functions. First, you will own and manage Planet’s intern and early talent program end-to-end — from requisition management and candidate coordination through onboarding, program programming, and offboarding
• This is a visible, cross-functional program that touches hiring managers across every department and gives early-career candidates their first experience of Planet
• Second, you will contribute directly to the Talent Operations roadmap, a portfolio of process improvement and systems projects that are actively reshaping how Planet manages the hiring lifecycle
• This role sits at the intersection of program management, process design, and recruiting operations
• You will need to be equally comfortable running the logistics of an intern cohort and digging into ATS workflow configuration
• The common thread is operational excellence — you care about whether things run smoothly, you notice when they don’t, and you fix them before someone has to ask
• You will report to the Senior Manager, Talent Operations and work as part of a team that includes Talent Operations, Recruiting Coordinators, and a Working Student
• Together, this team ensures that Planet’s recruiting infrastructure scales in step with the company’s growth
• Own and manage Planet’s intern and early talent program end-to-end — including requisition intake, candidate coordination, offer processing, onboarding logistics, program events and content, manager enablement, and offboarding workflows
• Serve as the primary point of contact for hiring managers and interns throughout the program lifecycle — ensuring hiring managers know what to expect and interns have a structured, high-quality experience from day one through final presentations
• Partner with Talent Acquisition Partners to coordinate intern recruiting timelines, track pipeline progress across departments, and ensure all intern offers are processed accurately and on time
• Contribute to the Talent Operations roadmap by owning or supporting key projects, with an immediate focus on the headcount approval workflow redesign — documenting the current process, mapping the ideal state, building automated workflows, and creating stakeholder-facing documentation
• Maintain and improve ATS (Greenhouse) workflows and configurations related to intern hiring, offer approvals, and operational reporting — ensuring data integrity and process consistency across all hiring tracks
• Support SLA monitoring and compliance by tracking scorecard submission timelines, offer approval turnaround, and other operational metrics — flagging risks early and following up with stakeholders to keep processes on track
• Create and maintain process documentation in the talent operations knowledge base — ensuring that intern program playbooks, approval workflows, and operational procedures are current, clear, and accessible to the recruiting team and hiring managers
• Coordinate cross-functionally with People Operations, People Business Partners, and the L&D team on intern onboarding, compliance requirements, and program content that connects interns to Planet’s mission and culture
• Support additional recruiting operations projects as capacity allows — including AI tool deployment, global process standardization, interview process documentation, and reporting enhancements
• Identify operational inefficiencies and propose improvements
