Resumo da oferta

Wayground is hiring a People Operations Generalist to support the day-to-day HR processes across GTM. This hands-on, individual-contributor role focuses on onboarding, payroll, benefits, and more across the US workforce.

You’ll own the HRIS, run onboarding and offboarding, and manage semi-monthly US payroll end to end, including leave and policy questions. A detail-oriented teammate with multi-state compliance experience will fit well.

Qualificações

• 2+ years in People Operations, ideally at a startup or in a fast-moving environment.
• US payroll, benefits, and leave administration experience across multiple states.
• Working knowledge of multi-state US employment compliance.
• Hands-on Rippling experience (or a comparable HRMS) across the full employee lifecycle.

Responsabilidades

• Own HRIS as the system of record: configuration, workflows, reporting, integrations, and data integrity across the full employee lifecycle.
• Run onboarding and offboarding: offer letters, background checks, I-9 and E-Verify, provisioning and deprovisioning, equipment, first-week experience, exit logistics.
• Run semi-monthly US payroll end to end, including off-cycles, corrections, and reconciliation with Finance.
• Administer benefits: open enrollment, carrier and broker management, qualifying life events, COBRA, 401(k) administration and audit support.
• Administer all leave types across states: FMLA, state paid family and medical leave, parental leave, disability, and accommodations, including the tracking and pay coordination behind each.
• Own People spend management: budget tracking, invoice and reimbursement approvals, headcount and benefits cost reporting alongside Finance.
• Serve as the first point of contact for all US employee questions on pay, benefits, policy, and systems.
• Maintain multi-state employment compliance: registrations in new states, required postings and notices, wage and hour, classification, handbook and policy updates.
