Résumé du poste

Chainguard is seeking a Director of People Operations to scale HR operations as we grow internationally. You will own onboarding, offboarding, compliance training, and lifecycle updates, and drive expansion into new countries with Finance and Legal.

With 8–10+ years in HR and leadership, you will lead the People Operations team, shape scalable processes, and apply AI to improve the employee experience across multiple remote countries.

Base Salary Range $204,000 - $240,000 USD.

Qualifications

• 8–10+ years in HR/People Operations, including 3+ years in a leadership/management capacity.
• Proven ownership of HRIS strategy — led an implementation, migration, or major optimization (Workday, Rippling, ADP, or similar).
• Experience owning the full employee lifecycle: onboarding, offboarding, org changes, data integrity, and process design.
• Background managing HR compliance operations — I-9s, leave administration, policy administration, audits.
• Experience standing up or scaling a people ops function in a high-growth SaaS or startup environment.
• International experience across EMEA; experience in Japan, Singapore, or South America is a plus.
• Direct experience opening new international entities and standing up HR compliance and operations in new countries.
• Experience partnering with or managing an Employer of Record (EOR) for international employees.
• Collaborative, solutions-oriented approach — a 'yes, how can I help' partner to the business.
• Strong track record managing and developing a team.
• Comfort operating with ambiguity and building processes where none exist.

Responsabilités

• Own and scale Chainguard's core employee lifecycle processes, including onboarding, offboarding, compliance training, and updates for promotions and job changes
• Lead the People Operations team, currently one manager with two direct reports
• Make HR Operations more visible and accessible to employees
• Lead the operational work of opening new legal entities internationally, including the UK, Canada, and Germany
• Own ongoing maintenance of HR operations and compliance across all countries Chainguard operates
• Partner cross‑functionally with Finance and Legal to navigate the compliance, payroll, and legal constraints of operating in each new country
• Manage and expand our Employer of Record (EOR) partnership, given our reliance on remote employees across roughly 19 countries
• Build scalable People Operations processes, templates, and resources as the function and company grow
• Bring strong AI fluency to the function, using AI to design smarter, more efficient People Operations processes and improve the employee experience.
