What I'm looking for

I seek a talent-ops/HR-systems role where I can lead HRIS optimization, drive process improvements, partner cross-functionally, and scale employee lifecycle programs in a data-driven organization.

I have 10+ years of experience in talent operations, HR systems, and project execution across global and high-growth organizations, focusing on translating data into actionable insights and improving workflows.

At the IMF I serve as a systems and process lead for talent programs, resolving technical and operational issues across Workday and PeopleSoft, tracking HR metrics, coordinating HRIS updates, and supporting performance cycles and policy rollouts. I have led scale initiatives—spearheading Workday Recruiting implementations and building custom KPIs—and supported embedded recruiting partnerships for fast-scaling clients.

I partner closely with Product and IT teams to manage releases, escalation management, and stakeholder communications, and I bring a pragmatic, data-driven approach to HR process optimization. I am bilingual (English/Spanish) and hold multiple recruiting certifications that complement my HR systems and talent operations expertise.
