Job description

About Rivian

Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract. 

As a company, we constantly challenge what’s possible, never simply accepting what has always been done. We reframe old problems, seek new solutions and operate comfortably in areas that are unknown. Our backgrounds are diverse, but our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations. 


Role Summary

This role will be a People Systems Solution Analyst, which includes system configuration,
enhancements, and deployment efforts, and the responsibilities below.


Responsibilities
  • Ensure the accuracy and integrity of People data across Workday by designing and
    executing recurring audit programs. Build and maintain EIBs, custom reports, and
    calculated fields that validate data at the point of entry and on a scheduled cadence.
  • Develop and deploy AI-driven data reconciliation processes that cross-reference
    Workday records against authoritative sources, auto-classify exceptions by severity, and
    route them to the appropriate analyst or business owner for resolution.
  • Conduct testing, documentation, and validation of new People system functionalities and
    configurations to ensure optimal performance, data accuracy, and compliance with
    organizational requirements
  • Lead end-to-end testing, documentation, and validation of new Workday functionalities,
    business process configurations, and semi-annual release updates, ensuring
    performance, data accuracy, and regulatory compliance.
  • Design AI-augmented regression testing frameworks that auto-generate test scenarios
    from business process definitions, execute validation scripts, and produce pass/fail
    dashboards; accelerating release readiness and minimizing manual QA effort.

    recommendations) and assess their fit with organizational requirements, data privacy
    standards, and change-management readiness.

    platforms, and integration touchpoints to identify optimization opportunities, reduce
    technical debt, and recommend enhancements that drive measurable efficiency gains.
  • Lead cross-functional special projects and strategic initiatives as assigned by People
    leadership; scoping requirements, managing stakeholder communication, and delivering
    on time.
  • Bring an automation-first mindset to every initiative: identify where agentic workflows, AI
    co-pilots, or intelligent routing can replace repetitive manual steps and free the People
    team to focus on high-judgment, human-centric work.
  • Uphold the highest standards of confidentiality and discretion when handling sensitive
    employee information, HRIS data, and AI-generated insights, ensuring compliance with
    data-privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR, CCPA) and internal security policies.
