Job description

Description

People Operations Specialist

Remote Eligible | Full-Time | Department: People & Culture

You: Organized, Detail-Oriented, and Slightly Obsessed with Good Vibes.

Us: A team looking for our next People Operations ROCKSTAR.

Let's be honest — HR paperwork isn't glamorous. But you? You see magic in making someone's first day unforgettable, catching a missing form before it becomes a disaster, and turning chaos into color-coded, well-documented glory.

We need a People Operations Specialist who loves people, processes, and (let’s be real) a little bit of paperwork.

Your Mission (should you choose to accept it):

• Recruiting Sidekick: Help us welcome our next superheroes (a.k.a. new hires).
• Onboarding Guru: Ensure every newbie feels like a VIP from day one.
• Record-Keeping Wizard: Keep our HR files organized enough to make Marie Kondo weep with joy.
• Benefits Buddy: Help our team understand and enroll in all the perks they’ve earned.
• Culture Enthusiast: Play a key role in nurturing the positive, people-first culture our team loves.

Skills You Bring:

• A Bachelor’s Degree (HR, Business, Communications, or "I Majored in Being Awesome" accepted)
• 3+ years in HR/People Ops (or similar role where you made life better for humans)
• Superhuman attention to detail
• A love of solving puzzles (the HR kind, not necessarily jigsaw)
• Bonus points for PHR or SHRM-CP certifications

If you can juggle onboarding checklists, benefits questions, and random Slack messages asking where to find the PTO form—all with a smile—you're our kind of person.

Ready to make People Operations your playground? Apply today and let's build something amazing together!
