Job Description
TRM Labs is a blockchain intelligence company committed to fighting crime and creating a safer world. By leveraging blockchain data, threat intelligence, and advanced analytics, our products empower governments, financial institutions, and crypto businesses to combat illicit activity and global security threats. At TRM, you'll join a mission-driven, fast-paced team made up of experts in law enforcement, data science, engineering, and financial intelligence, tackling complex global challenges daily. Whether analyzing blockchain data, developing cutting-edge tools, or collaborating with global organizations, you'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful and lasting impact.
We’re hiring a People Analytics Specialist to join our Talent function and help power our recruiting insights engine. This is a high-impact, individual contributor role responsible for turning complex talent data into insights that drive better hiring decisions, improve operational efficiency, and forecasting. You’ll partner closely with Talent Leadership, Recruiters, and HR Ops to build dashboards, run talent funnel analyses, and implement automations that help us scale. Your work will enable visibility into how we hire, where we’re slowing down, and how we can improve. From optimizing our dashboards in Looker Studio to ensuring data quality across Greenhouse and BIC, you’ll help build the analytics backbone of a growing Talent Center of Excellence.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of recruiting data, automation, and business storytelling — someone who wants to help a world-class Talent team move faster and smarter.
The impact you will have:
- Own and optimize our Talent dashboards in Looker Studio — ensuring accuracy, speed, and usability across sourcing, pipeline, and offer data.
- Partner with Recruiters and Talent Leaders to analyze recruiting funnel metrics, hiring performance, and talent forecasts.
- Build automations and data tools (e.g., Apps Script, Python, or no-code platforms) to reduce manual tracking and reporting effort.
- Audit and clean data across Greenhouse, BIC, and Google Sheets to ensure consistency and reliability.
- Run ad hoc analyses and build visualizations that help answer questions like: “Where are we slowing down?”, “Which channels are most effective?”, or “How do we track to plan?”
- Collaborate with People Ops on integrated metrics (e.g., headcount actuals vs. plan) and workforce data governance.
- Translate complex data into clear stories and recommendations for cross-functional stakeholders.
What we’re looking for:
- At least 2–4 years of professional experience in a recruiting analytics or people analytics position
- You’ve built and maintained dashboards in Looker Studio and know how to design for speed, scalability, and accuracy.
- You are deeply familiar with recruiting systems like Greenhouse and have experience integrating or analyzing BIC/ATS data.
- Strong proficiency with Google Sheets, SQL, and/or Python. Able to work with large datasets, clean and transform data, and build models to inform decisions.
- Experience with workflow automation using Google Apps Script, Zapier, or similar tools. You look for ways to make manual processes disappear.
- You understand the recruiting lifecycle and can help the team measure what matters — from time-to-fill and source effectiveness to recruiter load and funnel health.
- Able to explain data trends and recommended optimizations clearly to recruiters, hiring managers, and leadership teams.
About the Team:
Our Talent & HR Operations team is distributed across the US and LATAM, blending junior and senior team members into a collaborative, fast-paced environment. We value structure, autonomy, and clarity — and stay connected through regular standups, async docs, and shared ownership of outcomes. We thrive in ambiguity, prioritize progress over perfection, and build for scale. You’ll be joining a culture that values kindness, curiosity, and a relentless focus on impact.
- Asynchronous-first: We are globally distributed and default to async tools (Slack, Loom, Notion) to work efficiently.
- Overlap Hours: All team members must have 4+ hours of overlap with 7am–12pm PST (M–F) to support collaboration.
- Rotating On-Call: The team rotates coverage 2–3x per year for Slack/email while others are offline — each member does this once/year.
Learn about TRM Speed in this position:
- Ship a Skateboard Dashboard in 24 hours: Launch a minimum viable version of a job performance dashboard with key metrics, then iterate based on feedback.
- Run Fast Funnel Analyses: When asked about drop-off between onsite and offer stages, deliver an analysis the next day to enable quick strategic shifts.
- Automate Manual Reports Under Deadline: Build a temporary script or Zap to automate weekly hiring updates in Slack and Notion

Verify Employer Thoroughly
Research the company's identity thoroughly before applying. Check for a professional website with contacts, active social media, and LinkedIn profiles. Verify details across platforms and look for reviews on Glassdoor or Trustpilot to confirm legitimacy.
Never Pay to Get a Job
Legitimate employers never require payment for applications, training, background checks, or equipment. Always reject upfront payment requests or demands for bank details, even if they claim it's for purchasing necessary work gear on your behalf.
Safeguard Your Personal Information
Protect sensitive data like SSN, bank details, or ID copies. Share this only after accepting a formal, written job offer. Ensure it's submitted via a secure company system or portal, never through insecure channels like standard email attachments.
Scrutinize Communication & Interviews
Watch for communication red flags: poor grammar, generic emails (@gmail), vague details, or undue pressure. Be highly suspicious of interviews held only via text or chat apps; legitimate companies typically use video or phone calls.
Beware of Unrealistic Offers
If an offer's salary or benefits seem unrealistically high for the work involved, be cautious. Research standard pay for similar roles. Offers that appear 'too good to be true' are often scams designed to lure you into providing information or payment.
Insist on a Formal Contract
Always secure and review a formal, written job offer or employment contract before starting work or sharing final personal details. Ensure it clearly defines your role, compensation, key terms, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings or scams.
