About the role
Engine is scaling fast and raising its talent bar. We need a Total Rewards leader who treats rewards as a strategic lever for talent density : attracting, motivating, and retaining the top talent that compounds Engine's advantage. This person takes our compensation, benefits, and equity to the next level and keeps us ahead of the market as we grow.
What they're looking for
- 10+ years of Total Rewards experience with a track record of building strategy in fast-paced, high-growth companies - not just administering cycles
- A strategic, business-first orientation - connects rewards to talent density, retention of top performers, and company performance
- Forward-looking market sense - anticipates how AI and shifting skill demand reshape workforce composition and comp, and moves ahead of the curve
- AI-native operator - uses AI tools in their own work (comp modeling, market analysis, comms drafting, equity education) and thinks about how to bring AI-native rigor to the Total Rewards function itself
- Deep compensation expertise - performance philosophy aligned, with deep understanding of skills architecture, comp banding, variable structures, and executive incentive strategy
- Deep equity expertise - has architected Series C to exit-stage scenarios, with deep understanding of founder ownership dynamics, options-to-RSU transitions, dilution modeling, and executive equity strategy
