60 Day:
Fully own execution of performance cycles, including Lattice administration
Establish consistent onboarding and offboarding experience across teams
Audit People systems, data integrity, and workflows
Identify process gaps and begin implementing operational improvements
90 Day:
Implement reporting dashboards for performance, promotions, and attrition
Drive process automation and scalability across People systems
Serve as a trusted, responsive first point of contact for employees
Who You Are:
5+ years of HR Ops, People Ops, or similar experience in a high-growth environment
Strong hands-on experience with HRIS and performance tools (Lattice and Sequoia One preferred)
Deep understanding of payroll, benefits administration, and HR compliance
Highly detail-oriented with the ability to run multiple programs simultaneously
Clear, direct communicator who represents the People function with professionalism
Comfortable operating in ambiguity and building systems from the ground up
Strong service orientation with genuine care for employee experience

Generational impact: Build the human interface for every business
Ownership culture: 70% of the company are previous founders
Kind team: The founders, Jordan and Nikhil, are Canadians
Tier-1 Investors: YC, KP seed, Bessemer Series A
What We Offer:
Real stake: We offer a competitive salary and excellent equity ownership
Comprehensive health coverage: medical, dental, and vision plans
Team love: We love hanging out, and we do quarterly off-sites
Flexible time off: take what you need
More: catered meals, transportation, gym, and a $10k annual L&D budget
