  • Design and run fully automated workflows for hiring, onboarding, and offboarding.

  • Keep all people data accurate, compliant, and real-time across entities and functions.

  • Partner with Finance and IT to align headcount, budgets, and access control.

  • Build and maintain dashboards that show headcount, costs, and hiring velocity at a glance.

  • Manage vendor integrations and enforce global compliance through Rippling’s ecosystem.

  • Be the single point of accountability for HR operations, if something breaks, you fix it, and you make sure it never happens again.



  • 4–7 years in People Operations or HR Systems at a fast-scaling company.

  • Deep hands-on expertise in Rippling; you think in workflows and automations.

  • Obsessed with efficiency — you hate manual work and design it out of existence.
