The team
The Analytics Engineering Center of Excellence (CoE) connects and supports multiple hubs, tribes, and squads by setting standards, enabling collaboration, and driving community initiatives. We organize recurring internal meetings and events (e.g., chapter cadence, CoE updates, enablement sessions) and run occasional larger programs that require coordination across stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

• Coordinate recurring CoE internal events and meetings (planning, agendas, logistics, minutes, follow-ups, and action tracking).
• Support program management for “people initiatives” such as rotations between tribes and squads (intake, matching support, stakeholder coordination, and progress tracking).
• Help manage our hiring pipeline: coordinate with recruiters, hiring managers, and candidates; maintain an overview of interview stages and next steps; and ensure timely communication.
• Prepare and maintain documentation and overviews (e.g., calendars, contact lists, trackers, meeting packs, and program status updates) to enable transparency across hubs.
• Partner with chapter leads and area leads to proactively identify operational improvements and support ad-hoc coordination needs.
• Support clear communication across stakeholders: draft internal announcements, consolidate inputs, and ensure decisions and actions are captured and shared.

Qualifications:

• Currently pursuing a degree in Business Administration, HR, Management, Communication or any related field.
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail; able to manage multiple topics in parallel.
• Clear and confident communicator (written and verbal), comfortable working with diverse stakeholders. Comfortable working in an international, cross-cultural and distributed team setting (across hubs and time zones).
• Ability to handle complexity: you can structure ambiguous inputs into an actionable plan and follow through. Experience with basic planning and documentation tools (e.g., Microsoft 360 suit/Teams/Sharepoint) is a plus.
• Interest in working in a tech/data environment and learning how cross-functional teams operate.
