The Compensation team designs, manages, and evolves the company compensation strategy to attract, retain, and motivate world-class talent. We make sure compensation is fair inside the company and competitive in the market. We work on programs that connect directly to the company business goals and employee experience — using data and insight to make equitable, well-informed decisions. Our work spans cash and equity program design, annual and mid-year review cycles, benchmarking, and exec comp support.

In this role, you will own compensation support for specific client groups and take the lead on cycle operations and comp tooling across the team. You’ll work alongside a sharp team and closely with the company Head of Total Rewards. You’ll have clear ownership of your domain from day one, with real exposure to equity program mechanics, exec comp, and board-level deliverables.

Responsibilities:

• Own comp support for specific client groups — offers, promos, manager/HRBP questions — with a high bar for speed and accuracy

• Lead configuration and rollout of annual and mid-year compensation cycles in Workday and comp tooling

• Manage and maintain the company comp systems: Compa, Pave, and external survey tools (Compensia, Radford)

• Run benchmarking analysis — job matching, market data pulls, competitive pay positioning

• Maintain compensation band and zone data; ensure ranges stay current and accurate

• Build and maintain complex models in support of program design and leadership decisions

• Partner closely with other team members on high-priority workstreams and peak-season capacity

Qualifications:

• 5–8+ years of experience in compensation or total rewards

• Hands-on experience owning or co-owning a compensation cycle (YE or mid-year)

• Benchmarking experience: job matching, survey submissions, competitive analysis

• Strong analytical skills — you build and own complex models, not just populate templates

• RSU/equity experience — you understand how equity comp works and can explain it clearly

• Systems fluency — comfortable in at least one comp tool (Workday, Compa, Pave, or equivalent)

• Nice to have: private/pre-IPO experience, EPD client support, the company tech stack familiarity
