About The Position

Under the general direction of the Sr Director, Human Resources Information Systems and Business Reengineering, the Human Resources Information Systems (HRIS) Analyst supports and maintains the Human Resources PeopleSoft and other systems used by University Personnel (UP) and infrastructure that interfaces with UP. This position has strong functional knowledge of these systems and assists subject matter experts with ensuring data integrity of the systems, testing of system changes, report writing and analyzing workflow for process improvement opportunities. The HRIS Analyst also supports upgrades, testing, systems security, complex data analyses and advanced reporting and, as such, requires an appropriate level of functionally based technical and analytical skills. Major upcoming projects include the consolidation of all California State University (CSU) campus databases into a Common Human Resource System (CHRS) system-wide PeopleSoft HR database, upgrading existing HR systems some of which include interfaces to the PeopleSoft HCM and converting from a quarter system to a semester system. This position will play a key role in these major initiatives as one of the primary functional team members and serves as a liaison between HRIS and other entities both on and off campus. The HRIS team currently operates on a hybrid schedule: team members will work 3 days per week in the office and telecommute 2 days per week. Schedule requirements could change based on project needs.
