Full Job Description

WHY HARVEY At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come. This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. With 1500+ customers in 60+ countries, strong product-market fit, and world-class investor support, we’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched. Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you. At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started. ROLE OVERVIEW You'll be Harvey's founding People Data Analytics Lead — the technical leader for our people analytics function. You'll set the long-term direction for how we measure, model, and act on workforce data: building the data layer from scratch, defining the methodology others work from, and connecting the full employee lifecycle into a single, actionable view of how exceptional talent thrives at Harvey. The goal isn't just reporting — it's helping leaders understand why things are happening across the workforce and intervene before issues scale. This role sits within People Ops, with deep partnership across Total Rewards, Recruiting Ops, PBPs, People Systems, and Finance. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Build a cohesive view of Harvey's employee lifecycle —
