## About the role

Genius AI's People and Talent function has grown into a real operation, and the most important work ahead isn't running existing programs — it's building the ones that don't exist yet. This role owns the projects that sit between the seams: comp frameworks that need a first draft, an onboarding experience that still has rough edges, a data story that hasn't been told clearly yet, a recognition program that lives in a doc somewhere.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years of progressive HR and People Operations experience, with demonstrated breadth across at least two or three of the following: compensation, HRIS and systems, people analytics, onboarding, or employee experience
- Proven experience building workflows using AI in a People or HR context, identifying repeatable work, automating it, and redirecting capacity toward higher-judgment problems
- Moves without waiting for a perfect brief or complete dataset, forming a hypothesis, building a draft, getting feedback, and iterating rather than waiting for full clarity before starting
- Strong foundations as an HR generalist, knowing the craft well enough to spot what's broken, ask the right questions, and separate real problems from noise
- Analytically sharp, with expert-level Excel or Google Sheets skills and deep fluency with HRIS and BI tools
- High judgment about what to escalate and what to just solve, with a track record of handling complexity independently without pulling in more stakeholders than necessary
