What it does

For engineering new hires, this workflow translates an onboarding record into the exact GitHub access an engineer needs: org membership plus the correct teams (frontend, backend, platform, data) based on the role on their card. It posts a confirmation so the hiring manager can see access is live.

When to use it

Use it when engineers routinely wait days for repo access because invites and team assignments are done by hand. It standardizes least-privilege team mapping instead of granting everyone blanket access.

How it works

  1. 1**Trigger** — A new onboarding item appears on the Monday board tagged with the Engineering department.
  2. 2**Logic** — Map the sub-discipline field to the set of GitHub teams that role should join, skipping anything not on the approved list.
  3. 3**Action** — Send a GitHub org invitation to the new hire's work email.
  4. 4**Action** — Add the user to each mapped GitHub team once the invite is pending.
  5. 5**Output** — Post a confirmation with the granted teams to the #eng-onboarding Slack channel and tag the hiring manager.
