You own HR Ops for a complex, high-growth&nbsp;environment&nbsp;and you do it with full autonomy, clear judgment, and a genuine drive to build something better than what you inherited.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">You're&nbsp;not just executing.&nbsp;You're&nbsp;identifying&nbsp;gaps, designing solutions, influencing stakeholders, and making sure HR Ops processes scale alongside a business that is growing fast. Your stakeholder map is broad: HRBPs, business leaders, Payroll, Legal, People Systems, EHS, and HR Ops peers across other locations and geographies. This team does not work in silos, and at this level you are expected to be a connector as much as an executor. Employees are supported through the HRBPs; your accountability is to ensure the operational infrastructure behind that experience is rigorous, compliant, and fit for scale.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">In addition to location ownership, you will have the opportunity to lead global or team-wide HR Ops initiatives,&nbsp;representing&nbsp;the team beyond your location, shaping how we&nbsp;operate&nbsp;at scale, and building visibility across the organization.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">This role is particularly well-suited to environments that include data centers or other mission-critical physical infrastructure, where regulatory HR Ops and EHS compliance is operationally non-negotiable.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span data-ccp-props="{}"><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Location:&nbsp;</span></strong><span data-contrast="auto">US</span><span data-contrast="auto">,&nbsp;</span><span data-contrast="auto">preferably East Coast</span>&nbsp;</span></p> <p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Key Responsibilities</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">HR Operations and Employee Lifecycle</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{}">&nbsp;</span></p> <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="1" data-list-defn-props="{&quot;335552541&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769226&quot;:&quot;Symbol&quot;,&quot;469769242&quot;:[8226],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;multilevel&quot;}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"><span data-contrast="auto">Own and execute the full employee lifecycle for your location with full autonomy, including promotions, transfers, international moves, and terminations.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}">&nbsp;</span></li> </ul> <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="1" data-list-defn-props="{&quot;335552541&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559991&quot;:360,&quot;469769226&quot;:&quot;Symbol&quot;,&quot;469769242&quot;:[8226],&quot;469777803&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;469777804&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;469777815&quot;:&quot;multilevel&quot;}" data-aria-posinset="2" data-aria-level="1"><span data-contrast="auto">Serve as the primary escalation point for all HR Ops issues in your location;
