The Mission

Your goal is to launch and build a scalable performance management framework that aligns individual growth with company goals, utilizes cutting-edge AI methodologies, and drives team efficiency.

Key Responsibilities

• Data-Driven Competency Mapping: Use AI to map current team skills against industry benchmarks and predict future talent needs.
• Predictive Performance: Establish leading indicators of performance using data from Slack, Jira, or CRM rather than just lagging indicators.

• Enablement: Conduct workshops and create guides for leads on how to give/receive feedback and conduct meaningful 1-on-1s.
