Title: Business Analyst III
Location: Remote// (Preferred 3 days onsite in Sunnyvale, CA)
Duration: 12 months
Description:
- The Supply Planning Enablement Analyst will support the Scaled Product Delivery (SPD) team across the Product Data Operations (PDO) Core and MSL portfolios to enable a complex global outsourced operation servicing client's product partners.
- This role serves two critical functions: execute the recurring workforce planning, Anaplan and budget-adjacent operational work that keeps the portfolio running, and automate it - building, testing and deploying AI-driven solutions that remove the manual steps from those same processes in partnership with client's SPD team.
Responsibilities:
- Execute recurring workforce planning operations across the PDO portfolio: process incoming staffing requests, ensure proper Anaplan maintenance, support supply planning communication processes and similar related planning duties.
- Serve as the human-in-the-loop for defined gate checks and exception reviews, applying standard rules consistently and routing edge cases to the right owner.
- Resolve intake clarifications with program managers so requests keep moving and critical deadlines and SLAs are maintained.
- Validate data accuracy in the system of record across Anaplan and tracking logs, and reconcile discrepancies.
- Execute a prioritized automation roadmap set by client: for each process on the list, run it, document it, then optimize and automate it to replace manual steps.
- Build, test and roll out individual automations and AI agents against defined workflows. Validate outputs before they go live, documenting solutions and process updates as needed.
- Monitor deployed automations for drift and failure. Identify where a workflow has stalled or an automation has degraded, remediate it, and escalate what you cannot fix.
- Proactively flag automation opportunities: surface processes that are manual, repetitive or inconsistent and propose how to streamline them.
- Document processes and automations as you build them, so the work is transferable and auditable.
- Prepare and deliver status updates on the automation roadmap to relevant team members and leads.
Minimum Qualification:
- 5+ years of experience in workforce management, resource planning, vendor operations, workforce analytics, budget management, or a combination of these.
- Experience operating within enterprise planning or workforce management systems (Anaplan, or similar).
- Demonstrated experience building and deploying AI-driven automations in a business operations context.
- Experience translating a manual, documented process into a working automation, including testing and validation before rollout.
- Experience in process documentation and iterative process improvement, with strong attention to detail.
- Full proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets.
- Advanced Verbal and written communication skills, problem solving skills, and interpersonal skills
- Self-starter with experience navigating high levels of ambiguity and complexity; Strong ability to work independently in tactical and operational activities and prioritization of one's time
Preferred Qualification:
- Prior experience working inside client'sinternal technical environment or with Meta's AI tools.
- Experience with vendor or outsourced workforce operations across multiple partners and locations.
- Experience with various BPO commercial models including hourly/FTE, unit-based, output-based
