We are looking for a Product Owner for HR Technology with a strong focus on ServiceNow HRSD and Global Payroll. You do not need to be an expert in both Payroll and ServiceNow — experience in either one is sufficient and we will upskill you in the other platform.
This is a post-implementation role centered on operational demand management, continuous improvement, and ensuring a predictable flow of enhancements across platforms.
The role has primary ownership of ServiceNow HRSD, while supporting workflow alignment with our Global Payroll application (e.g., ServiceNow HRSD and Papaya Global).
What you’ll do
- Operational Product Ownership for ServiceNow HRSD (Primary): Own and manage the ServiceNow HRSD backlog, ensuring a steady flow of incremental improvements.
- Global Payroll product ownership (Supporting): Manage the backlog for Global Payroll Application (Papaya Global) ensuring enhancements align with business priorities.
- Lead integration & automation: Work with other HR product owners to optimize processes, integrate systems, and identify opportunities for automation and efficiency gains.
- Drive demand & delivery: Run the demand intake and qualification process, triaging requests and translating needs into actionable backlog items.
- Collaborate across functions: Partner with HR Process Owners and IT to identify needs, adopt new technologies, and drive digital HR initiatives.
- Ensure smooth rollouts: Plan and execute User Acceptance Testing (UAT), support HR Operations handovers, and maintain proper documentation.
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Business, IT, or a related field.
- 6+ years’ experience in HR technology with hands-on exposure to ServiceNow HRSD and/or to a Global Payroll Application.
- Strong functional knowledge to guide developers and implementation partners.
- Deep understanding of HR processes, service delivery models, and agile delivery.
- Excellent communication skills, capable of working effectively in global, cross-functional teams.
- Proactive, innovative, and passionate about digital transformation in HR.
We will upskill you
Whether your background is stronger in ServiceNow or Global Payroll, we invest in developing your capabilities across both areas. You will be supported by senior product owners, our Digital Employee Journey team, and our HR Tech. community.
What success looks like
- HR technology needs are identified proactively, not reactively.
- Requirements are clear, stable, and well understood by IT.
- Enhancements are delivered smoothly and adopted by users.
- HR Operations can confidently handle solutions post-handover.
- Stakeholders trust you as a reliable HR Technology Product Owner.
