Job Description

Akind is seeking its first HR Tech Specialist to optimize People systems, drive automation, and improve data integrity and processes across the organization.

You’ll work closely with senior leadership and the IT team to implement technology solutions that align with Akind’s goals, enhance operational efficiency, and support growth.

In this role, you will bridge the gap between HR and IT, optimizing workflows, improving user adoption, and ensuring compliance with data privacy and EU regulations.
