About the Role
This is a greenfield, high-ownership People Operations role — the company's first dedicated HR hire.

- Employee transitions, terminations, and severance handled with care and sound judgment
- Benefits administration (health, retirement) and broker/provider relationships
- Payroll accuracy and compliance in partnership with Finance
- HR workflow documentation and process building as the company scales
Requirements
- Experience at a venture-backed company with $10M+ in funding (ideally most recent role)
- 4-8 years of HR experience
- Prior experience as first or second HR hire at a Series A or B venture-backed startup
- California employment law fluency
- Strong HRIS fluency (Rippling a strong plus)
- Payroll fundamentals experience
- Demonstrated experience handling terminations and severance
- Based in SF Bay Area, willing to work in-person 5 days per week in Dogpatch
Nice-to-Have
- Rippling specifically
- Sales team support experience (OTE, accelerators, commission complexity)
- Multi-state or international employment exposure
- Performance management experience
- Broader People Ops exposure (manager enablement, engagement, culture)
Benefits
- Daily catered lunch and dinner stipend
- $150 monthly wellness benefit
- 401k, commuter benefits
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage
No visa sponsorship available. In-person in San Francisco required 5 days per week.
