• Ensure multi-state regulatory compliance, including maintaining accurate employment records, updates to handbooks, and mandatory training.
• Partner with finance and legal teams to manage workers' compensation, equity administration details, and state-specific tax registrations.
• Analyze people metrics, such as retention rates and employee Net Promoter Scores (eNPS), to propose data-driven HR initiatives.

• 4-7 years of HR generalist or people operations experience, preferably within a fast-growing technology company or remote environment.
• Strong knowledge of federal, state, and local employment laws across multiple US states (specifically Washington and California).
• Hands-on administrative proficiency with modern HRIS, payroll, and performance management tools (such as Rippling, BambooHR, and Lattice).
• Demonstrated ability to handle confidential information with high discretion and emotional intelligence.
• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• Bonus: Professional certification (PHR, SPHR, SHRM-CP, or SHRM-SCP) and experience managing immigration/visa processes.
