We're looking for a hands-on HR Generalist to join our People team and keep our day-to-day people operations running smoothly.
What you'd do
- Own day-to-day updates in our HRIS — start date changes, title and job detail adjustments, reporting line changes, and other employee record maintenance.
- Run regular internal data audits to catch and correct discrepancies before they become downstream problems for payroll, benefits, or reporting.
- Partner with People Ops, Finance, and IT to keep employee data consistent across systems.
- Coordinate end-to-end onboarding logistics for new hires so their first day is seamless, including
- Monitoring background check status and following up on anything pending or flagged.
- Completing I-9 verifications and driving follow-ups to ensure timely, compliant completion.
- Coordinating with IT on laptop provisioning, email and account setup, and name or address changes.
- Managing seat assignments and workspace readiness in partnership with Workplace.
- Ordering and preparing new hire swag and welcome materials.
- Help facilitate our weekly new hire onboarding sessions — prepping materials, managing logistics and the calendar, presenting portions of the agenda, and gathering feedback to improve the experience over time.
What they want
- Degree in Human Resources or a related field, plus 2-3 years of experience in an HR Generalist or HR Specialist role.
- Highly organized, with a track record of juggling a wide span of workstreams and keeping details from slipping through the cracks.
- Resourceful and self-directed — comfortable figuring out a solution when there's no playbook, and able to unblock yourself to get things done.
- Comfortable pivoting as priorities shift, and able to re-prioritize quickly without losing track of what's still open.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with sound judgment about what to handle directly and when to escalate.
- Discretion and good judgment in handling confidential employee information.
