This is a hands-on, execution-focused role: you'll be the sole HR practitioner responsible for keeping benefits, compliance, HRIS, employee relations, and onboarding running smoothly and accurately day in and day out for a company of 80-100 global employees.
We’re looking for someone who acts as a thought leader within their day-to-day work, someone who stays current on best practices, brings informed recommendations on things like AI-enabled HR tools and global workforce considerations, and proactively flags issues and opportunities, even while focused primarily on getting the work done accurately and on time.

- Support internal audits, legal reviews, and regulatory reporting (ACA, EEO-1)
- Stay current on emerging compliance topics, including regulatory developments around AI use in employment decisions (e.g., EEOC guidance, state AI-in-hiring laws), and flag relevant risks to leadership as they come up
HR Systems & Analytics
- Maintain and administer the HRIS system (Paylocity) day-to-day: employee records, workflows, and dashboards
