is hiring a Business Operations Lead, Compensation & Equity to help build the next stage of our compensation function. This is a senior individual contributor role with exposure to company-level decisions and frequent partnership with the executive team and leaders across People, Finance, Legal, Talent, and the business. You will not manage a team, but you will operate as a thought partner and owner for some of 's most important people and business decisions.

Build analytical models and decision frameworks for compensation bands, equity grants, refresh programs, promotion cycles, retention offers, international compensation, incentive structures, and executive-level scenarios.
Partner with leaders across People, Talent, Finance, Legal, Sales, Product, Engineering, and executive leadership to translate complex compensation questions into clear, practical recommendations.
Help run and improve major company-wide compensation processes, including merit cycles, promotion cycles, equity refreshers, offer governance, and special compensation reviews.
Develop tools, templates, dashboards, and workflows that make compensation decisions faster, more accurate, and more consistent as grows.
Use AI to remove manual work from the compensation function: pulling relevant context, flagging exceptions, drafting decision materials, and automating repeatable analysis.
Pressure-test compensation and equity philosophy against market data, hiring needs, retention risk, budget constraints, and internal equity.

Experience in a client service, strategy, finance, or operating environment where you owned complex workstreams and advised senior stakeholders.
