Mission:
The mission of the Shift Success team is to ensure that work completed on Shiftsmartâs platform consistently translates into real customer impact and ROI. We define what successful execution looks like for each shift type and build the infrastructure that measures it, turning operational signals like shift activity, images, partner inputs, and customer data into objective shift scoring.
That foundation powers the engine that drives execution across the marketplace. Working cross-functionally with product, engineering, operations, finance, and supply, the team builds systems that connect shift outcomes across the value chain. These systems power payment decisions, the in-app partner experience (task lists, completion checks, and feedback), partner pool management and shift access rules, and the customer software and reporting used to monitor and improve execution in the field. Together, this infrastructure reinforces expectations and shapes partner behavior at scale to ensure customers consistently receive high-quality execution.
This role is based in New York City (HQ) with typically 3+ days in office
Outcomes:
Your role will evolve over time, but some of your early responsibilities will include:
Create a Unified View of Marketplace Quality: Combine shift success metrics across deals to establish standardized partner and market-level quality measures for internal and external reporting, including forward-looking assignment risk signals across markets, deals, and launches.
Integrate Quality Metrics Across Functions: Embed shift quality into marketplace, supply, and launch planning systems so other teams can incorporate quality tradeoffs into their decisions, grounded in consistent data across deals.
Create Dynamic Quality Management Systems: Build and own the framework that translates quality signals into risk-based thresholds for action, working with cross-functional partners to activate the right responses across supply, bonusing, and shift recovery as markets and worker pools evolve.
Manage the Worker Pool: Own worker pool health through fraud detection, performance-based deactivations, and related systems that ensure a high-quality, reliable supply base.
Competencies:
Do you have what it takes to launch pilots successfully and fundamentally change labor? Here are the attributes youâll need:
Results-driven: You have 3-6 years of experience in a fast-paced environment, and you have a track record of driving outcomes and accomplishing objectives, regardless of perceived blockers or setbacks
High Ownership: You have experience leading cross-functional initiatives and building scalable operational systems from the ground up, partnering with engineering, operations, and support teams to turn complex problems into durable processes and tools
Analytical: You have extensive experience using SQL and Excel, and can move fluidly between high-level trends and granular data to size and prioritize issues, identify root causes, and design scalable analytical rule frameworks derived from multiple sources of data
Empathetic: You understand the worker experience and use that perspective to anticipate and resolve issues workers may face during their shifts, and are comfortable engaging with workers
Independent: You can take an initiative and run with it, and donât need to be repeatedly shown how to solve the same problems

Operating Principles @ Shiftsmart
Inspired by Leadership Principles @ Amazon
Execution Is Binary
We #GetShiftDone. We take immense pride in both the quality of our work and our relentless determination to deliver on our commitments. If we say we are going to do something, we do it.
We own the outcome with an unstoppable mindset through the finish line and are impatient to move the ball forward. This means we work really hard, execute with urgency, and ruthlessly challenge timelines for anything important. As a result, we do not defer responsibility to other teams or individuals. Instead, we take the problem as far as we can and only when needed ask others for help.
Each time a crisis or opportunity emerges we take the hill as one team, because we are allergic to the words âit canât be doneâ.
Missionaries, Not Mercenaries
We before me. We believe in our mission to build a better world for workers. We understand why our work matters and take seriously how it impacts our customers and our partners. This belief permeates everything we do from the strategic to the mundane.
We are energetic, ambitious, and want to win. We constantly raise the standards for ourselves and everyone around us. We show up for our customers, our partners, and most importantly our teammates, and make every effort to build lasting relationships with each
