You’ll be the go-to for making sure our processes run smoothly, accurately, and compliantly, all while helping to evolve the People function as we scale. If you're someone who thrives on precision, enjoys solving problems, and wants to help build efficient, people-first systems from the ground up, we’d love to meet you!   What You'll Do

Ensure ongoing compliance with federal, state, and local wage, hour, and employment laws. Manage key employee compliance activities, including background checks, fingerprinting, I-9, and E-Verify processes. Oversee all visa and immigration processes - including coordination with legal counsel, tracking key dates, and supporting employees and managers through the process. Maintain and update the employee handbook and ensure all policies remain compliant and up to date. Oversee PTO and leave administration (FMLA, parental leave, bereavement, etc.), including tracking, employee communication, and documentation. Administer and manage employee benefits, including enrollments, changes, and renewals, in partnership with our broker. Keep employee records organized, accurate, and confidential. Support and improve onboarding and offboarding workflows to ensure a smooth and positive employee experience.
