Overview

How you can make a difference

At HealthEquity, we're obsessed with doing right by people - especially when it comes to how they grow, perform, and get rewarded for the work they do. That's where this role comes in.

The People Technology Lead - Talent & Performance is the domain owner for how Talent and Performance programs come to life in Workday. You'll sit at the intersection of Talent, Total Rewards, and People Technology, translating thoughtful programs into intuitive, scalable, and wellgoverned system solutions that leaders and team members actually enjoy using.

This is not a strategysetting role - it's a highimpact consultative partner role for someone who deeply understands how Workday can (and should) support Performance, Goals, Succession, Skills, and Compensation. Your success will show up in frictionless cycles, confident leaders, clean configurations, strong adoption, and a platform that just works.

You'll report to the Director, People Technology & Operations and partner closely with Talent, Total Rewards, and other People Tech domain owners across the platform.

HealthEquity's Talent and Compensation programs are a critical part of how we attract, retain, and grow exceptional people. This role ensures those programs are:

    Implemented thoughtfully and durably
  • Easy for leaders and team members to use
  • Scalable as the company grows

HealthEquity uses Microsoft Copilot to transcribe screening interviews between candidates and their direct Talent Partner for note taking and interview summaries. By scheduling a screening interview with us, you consent to Microsoft Copilot's AI technology recording and transcribing your interview with your Talent Partner. This information will be reviewed for accuracy and then used by HealthEquity to summarize the interview, ensure accuracy, and facilitate our hiring process. We take privacy seriously.

As AI is becoming a common tool throughout the application process, we want to be clear about its appropriate use at HealthEquity. Using AI to support resume writing, research, or interview preparation is perfectly acceptable, provided the content is accurate and genuinely represents your qualifications and skills. For other key parts of our interview process, however, it is important that the ideas, communication, and work you share reflect your own voice, experiences, and thinking. We ask that you participate in our live interviews and complete any assessments without AI assistance unless instructions explicitly indicate otherwise or a specific exception is discussed and approved in advance.
