The posting

Morgan Stanley Human Resources is seeking an experienced Strat/Engineer in New York to build and own internal HR applications, data services, and workflow solutions that improve how HR leverages technology, data, and automation to drive smarter workforce decisions. This Vice President role partners closely with senior business leaders, HR, and Finance to build scalable solutions that improve how HR operates and delivers insight to the business.

Role Overview

As an HR Strat/Engineer, you will serve as a hands-on product builder and technical owner for applications used across your assigned HR area. You will design, build and own user-facing tools and supporting data services. You will combine deep technical capability with strategic thinking — using software and data engineering, automation, and modern tooling to deliver products and reshape how workforce and operational data are modeled and consumed by senior leadership.

What You'll Do in the Role:

· Design, build, test, and deploy internal HR applications and tools with user interfaces, business logic, workflow, and data

· Lead core HR process cycles (e.g., compensation, workforce planning, talent reviews), providing end-to-end technical and analytical support across planning, execution, and governance

· Own the full product and development lifecycle, from discovery and requirements through architecture, implementation, and ongoing enhancement

· Develop backend services, APIs, data pipelines, and integrations that connect HR applications to enterprise data platforms and source systems using Python, SQL, Snowflake, and other approved enterprise technologies

· Partner with senior business leadership, HR, and technology teams to translate workforce and operating needs into product requirements, technical designs, and prioritized roadmaps

· Apply software engineering practices including version control, code review, automated testing, deployment controls, and observability

· Evaluate and deploy emerging technologies (e.g., GenAI, AI agents, workflow automation) to enhance HR’s analytical and operational capabilities

Day-to-Day Focus

· Develop and maintain production-grade HR applications and reusable services, with clear ownership for reliability, performance, security, and user experience

· Create intuitive end user interfaces and workflow experiences for HR processes

· Integrate applications with governed HR and workforce data, implementing validation, access controls, auditability, and appropriate handling of sensitive information

· Work directly with users to prototype solutions, gather feedback, prioritize enhancements, and drive adoption

· Improve application architecture and development practices, and stay current on cloud, software engineering, data platform, and AI capabilities relevant to HR

What You’ll Bring to the Role:

· Advanced degree in Computer Science or another quantitative discipline

· 6+ years of relevant professional experience, including hands-on delivery of software applications, internal tools, or workflow products used by business stakeholders

· Experience with cloud platforms (Snowflake, Azure, AWS) is an advantage

· Strong analytical mindset with ability to synthesize data from multiple sources into clear insights and recommendations

· Strong Python and SQL development skills, with experience applying Python in production applications, services, or data workflows

· Experience with web application architecture, APIs, source control, testing frameworks, and modern software development practices

· Strong understanding of data governance, controls, and model validation

· Strong communicator who can translate between technical and non-technical stakeholders and turn ambiguous business problems into working products

· Comfort operating across HR domains and partnering with cross-functional teams in a fast-paced environment

· Comfort operating across HR domains and partnering with cross-functional teams in a fast-paced environment; visualization experience is useful when embedded within broader application solutions

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
