About the Role: We’re hiring a Senior Payroll Systems Analyst to support Corporate Payroll by ensuring Oracle Cloud HCM (Payroll + Oracle Time & Labor) runs flawlessly for time & labor calculations, periodic payrolls, and tax reporting. You’ll partner with Payroll, Payroll Tax, Accounting, HRIT/IT, and external providers to collect requirements (BRD), design solutions, fix defects, implement enhancements, test (Unit/UAT), and manage change control. The ideal candidate blends hands-on payroll operations (able to run and reconcile payroll) with strong functional/technical skills in Oracle Cloud HCM and OTL.

Responsibilities:

• Run and support payroll cycles end-to-end (pre-calc validations, calc, costing, post-calc audits, reconciliation, GL posting, and confirmations) while supporting payroll administrators during cutoffs.
• Manage Oracle Time & Labor (OTL) configurations and payroll element design from development testing migration.
• Translate current-state earnings elements to new time-card-driven payroll elements; add input values, processing rules, and balances.
• Review and validate HCM Data Loader (HDL) files for elements, costing, and related objects; remediate and re-test defects.
• Create test scripts/scenarios for each payroll element and impacted payroll processes; conduct UAT and document results.
• Prepare Business Requirement Documents (BRD); produce functional specs, solution designs, and migration documents; follow change control.
• Collaborate with Payroll Systems, HRIT, Technology, and external vendors/MSPs to ensure accurate, compliant setups and integrations.
• Support interfaces and reporting (e.g., HCM Extracts/BI Publisher/OTBI) and coordinate with Accounting on GL costing and reconciliations.
• Lead/assist projects such as acquisition integrations, benefits initiatives, system upgrades, and year-end (W-2, amendments).
• Track deliverables and status using Smartsheet and SharePoint.

Required Qualifications

• 3 5+ years hands-on Oracle Cloud HCM Payroll & OTL.
• Proven expertise in complex payroll and timekeeping; working knowledge of benefits, compensation, payroll tax, accounting, and general auditing.
• Strong Oracle Payroll functional/technical skills: elements, balances, costing, fast formulas (payroll/time), time calculation rules, absence/time integration, and HDL.
• Experience performing security & design reviews and evaluating changes/projects for compliance with DOL/tax and company policy.
• Proficient with SQL (data analysis, troubleshooting) and comfortable with defect triage and root-cause analysis.
• Excellent communication & presentation skills; able to translate technical concepts for payroll administrators and business leaders.
• Bachelor’s degree in a related field or equivalent experience.
