Senior Stock Administrator
About the role
Discord's Stock Administration team ensures every equity award — from a new hire's first grant to a multi-year vesting RSU release — is handled accurately, compliantly, and with care. We're looking for an experienced Senior Stock Plan Administrator to join our team supporting the day-to-day administration of Discord's global equity programs, including equity grants, option exercises, RSU releases, and special projects. This position is US-based and can be remote; if you live in the Bay Area you're welcome to work from our San Francisco office.
Responsibilities
- Manage the daily administration of Discord's global equity plans — from participant eligibility and enrollment through award processing, exercises, settlements, tax withholding, mobility reporting, expirations, cancellations, repurchases, and terminations.
- Process, validate, and reconcile equity transactions across equity administration platforms, payroll, and the general ledger, ensuring data integrity, accuracy, and timely resolution of discrepancies.
- Partner with Legal, HR, Payroll, Tax, and Finance to administer Discord's global equity programs and support ongoing processes that ensure accurate record-keeping, withholding, reporting, and reconciliation across all equity data.
- Maintain complete and reliable participant mobility data by tracking work locations and mobility history, and reconciling records across payroll and HRIS systems.
- Provide a high level of service to employees, management, and stakeholders on equity plan questions; design and deliver educational sessions and communications about Discord's equity programs.
- Manage the quarterly calendar of stock administration activities and prepare year-end tax information for IRC 6039 reporting.
- Ensure SOX compliance across all aspects of the equity plan — including documentation, testing, and audit support — and ensure all equity compensation is administered per plan terms and conditions.
Requirements
- 5+ years in stock plan administration, with experience at both a private and public company.
- Experience with global equity plans and managing an equity administration system.
- A passion for equity and helping employees understand their equity compensation.
- Detail-oriented with a high degree of accuracy.
Skills
- Certified Equity Professional (CEP) designation (bonus).
- Experience with Carta (bonus).
