POSITION SUMMARY

This role sits at the center of the People function, driving how we operate, evolve, and deliver at scale. You'll serve as the connective tissue across People sub-teams, bringing rigor, clarity, and momentum to the systems, programs, and initiatives that make the function run. As a builder and strategic operator, you'll shape the infrastructure and culture of how the People team works, while leading high-visibility, high-impact transformation projects on behalf of People leadership.

This is a remote role, with occasional travel to our Mountain View HQ required. The New York Metro base salary range for this full-time position is $201,000-$246,000, plus equity and benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Function-wide operations: Own the operating model for the People team - including cross-functional cadences, reporting, dashboards, and the systems that support how we work.
• Core People programs management: Lead end-to-end planning and execution of compensation cycles, performance reviews, and engagement survey activation.
  • Note: Not all People moments; sub-teams still need to be accountable for their own execution.
• Transformation & special projects: Drive selective, high-priority, cross-cutting initiatives on behalf of People leadership, including org design, process redesign, and strategic buildouts.
• Sub-team operations: Serve as a central steward of project management, intake, and operational support across People sub-teams.
• AI & automation: Identify and implement opportunities to modernize People workflows through AI tools, automation, and systems improvements.
• Cross-functional liaison: Serve as the primary operational connector between the People team and cohorts like ELT, Finance, Legal, and IT - particularly on transformation initiatives.
• Documentation & knowledge management: Own how the People team captures, stores, and shares its playbooks, SOPs, and program documentation - building a knowledge infrastructure that scales.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• A systems thinker who also executes - you can zoom out to see the full picture and zoom in to move work forward.
• Experienced in HR/People functions, with a track record of building infrastructure and programs that scale.
• Comfortable owning ambiguous, cross-functional work with senior stakeholders.
• Energized by transformation
• 7+ years of experience in HR, People Operations, or related fields
• Experience using data and data-driven insights to support the business by offering solutions in line with values and business objectives
• Change management skills
• Passion for creating healthy, inclusive organizations where culture is a competitive advantage for a diverse employee population
