Job description

We’re building technology that helps people connect what matters across work and life, recognize what needs attention, and move forward with greater clarity and control.

01 / The role

Run recruiting and day-to-day People operations at loopworks. Personally move priority searches forward, administer Rippling and build reliable hiring, onboarding and employee workflows. This is an experienced, hands‑on individual contributor role.

Reports to: Chief Operating Officer.

02 / Your ownership

• Personally source and recruit technical and other priority talent; coordinate interviews, evidence-based feedback, references, candidate communication and approved offers.
• Administer Rippling Recruiting and core HR yourself: configure stages, interview plans, permissions, approvals, reports and onboarding/offboarding automations. Test changes, document ownership and resolve workflow failures.
• Maintain accurate candidate and employee records. Coordinate payroll inputs, benefits, leave, equipment and access with Finance, the COO and authorized partners.
• Give hiring managers a weekly view of pipeline progress, overdue decisions, upcoming starts and blockers. Build practical manager support and employee routines with leadership.
• Protect confidential information and elevate employment matters to the COO and counsel. Hiring decisions, compensation exceptions and legal conclusions stay with the authorized decision‑makers.

03 / What you bring

• Deep, recent, hands‑on Rippling administrator experience is required. You must have personally configured Recruiting and HR workflows, permissions, approvals, reporting and onboarding automations.
• Evidence of recruiting delivery and employee operations in a lean technology company; credible technical sourcing experience and disciplined candidate follow-through.
• Clear writing, discretion and sound judgment. Employee self‑service use, generic HRIS familiarity or supervising an administrator does not satisfy the Rippling requirement.

04 / Your first 90 days

First 30 days: audit the hiring pipeline, permissions and onboarding gaps. By day 60: implement and test priority Rippling workflows and a reliable weekly hiring cadence. By day 90: demonstrate accurate records, dependable candidate follow‑up and repeatable onboarding with clear owners.

05 / How we work

Miami Beach, Florida. Full‑time. Hybrid, four in‑office days per week initially. After six months, one additional remote day may be approved based on performance, role and business needs.

06 / Compensation

Annual base salary: $150,000–$180,000. Bonus, equity and benefits are discussed separately; no award is promised.

07 / The conversation

Expect a redacted walkthrough or sandbox exercise covering a hiring‑to‑onboarding handoff, permission boundaries and an automation failure you diagnosed. Never share a former employer’s confidential data.
