Recruiting Systems and Analytics Lead

Recruiting Systems And Analytics Lead

In 1973, Peter Drucker wrote that "what gets measured gets improved," a reminder that data only becomes powerful when it is organized, accurate, and actually used. A system can store information, but it takes structure and clarity for that information to drive action. The real challenge is creating systems that capture what matters, ignore what does not, and help people make better decisions without getting lost in the noise.

At Mercury, we are building the financial stack that empowers ambitious companies to operate with speed and confidence. As our product expands and our hiring needs grow, our recruiting systems and data need to evolve just as quickly.

We are looking for a Recruiting Systems And Analytics Lead to build and maintain the infrastructure that powers how we hire.
