Job Summary

Come help us transform the world of Digital People Experiences. Equinix HR’s Employee Experience and Product Design team is seeking a Senior Platform Product Manager for Talent Acquisition Systems to lead the evolution of our global recruitment ecosystem. While Workday serves as our core system of record, this role is the visionary product manager for our "best-of-breed" TA landscape.

You will lead the strategy for a seamless journey—from the first touchpoint of sourcing and AI-driven attraction to the final "Moment that Matters" of onboarding. Your mission is to create delightful, inclusive, and frictionless experiences that enable recruiters, hiring managers, and candidates to connect effortlessly. You will champion product experience, leverage AI across the recruitment lifecycle, and manage a sophisticated tech stack that includes sourcing tools, assessments, interviewing platforms, and our Internal Talent Marketplace.

Go to Market

• Support global roll-outs through product demonstrations that highlight how technology simplifies the hiring manager's life

Performance Tracking and Optimization

• Define KPIs that measure the health of the TA stack: Candidate Net Promoter Score (cNPS), funnel conversion rates, and the efficacy of AI-driven sourcing channels

• Use data-driven insights to continuously optimize the digital "apply" flow and assessment stages

Collaboration

• Partner with IT to ensure the TA tech stack is secure, resilient, and seamlessly integrated via APIs

• Collaborate with the Talent Acquisition COE to ensure technology supports Equinix’s diversity, equity, and inclusion goals through unbiased, accessible system design

• Experience leading Agile scrum teams and thriving in ambiguous, fast-paced environments

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building or managing an Internal Talent Marketplace or similar career-pathing platform
