## About the role

You’ll co-own the operational backbone of the People team and be a trusted first point of contact for employees worldwide. Our team is small, close-knit, and highly operational: we run the full employee lifecycle across multiple countries and legal entities, so everyone owns real scope end to end. You’ll own the day-to-day execution that keeps our people processes accurate, compliant, and on time, and back up interview scheduling for our Lead Technical Recruiter during busy hiring cycles.

## What they're looking for

- 1–3 years in People Operations, HR, payroll, or a related administrative role, ideally somewhere fast-paced, global, or remote-first
- Hands-on HRIS experience and a natural systems aptitude – you pick up new tools quickly
- Exceptional attention to detail and real pride in accurate data
- A proactive, ownership mindset, you follow through without being chased
- Polished written communication, with meaningful working-hours overlap with US and European colleagues
- Sound judgment and discretion with confidential information
