People Operations Analyst

Cobalt was founded on the belief that pentesting can be better. Our pentests start in as little as 24 hours and integrate with modern development cycles thanks to the powerful combination of a SaaS platform coupled with an exclusive community of testers known as the Cobalt Core. Accepting just 5% of applicants, the Core boasts over 400 closely vetted and highly skilled testers who jointly conduct thousands of tests each year. 

Our award-winning, fully remote team is committed to helping agile businesses remediate risk quickly and innovate securely. Today, over 1,000 customers use Cobalt to run pentests on demand via Pentest as a Service, AKA PtaaS, a space which Cobalt pioneered (you could even say we wrote the book on it) and continues to lead. 

We are looking for a driven People Operations Analyst to own the data analysis as it relates to Cobalt’s overall employee experience. You will develop subject matter expertise of candidate and employee data, run reports, create dashboards, elevate findings to insights and recommendations, and own People process management. You will have tremendous impact in developing infrastructure and insights that shape our People strategy and drive outstanding decision-making. This role will work closely with the entire organization and will report to the Sr. Director of People.
