## Description

We are looking for a Compensation Strategy & Program Lead to join our team in an AI-first operating model,one where compensation rules, decisions, and reporting are increasingly encoded into automated workflows and self-service tools rather than handled case by case.

As our primary compensation archetype, our Program Leads operate as internal product owners. Beyond hands-on partnership, they architect scalable frameworks, build self-service governance, and drive strategic total rewards programs across the company.

Working as part of a lean pod of peer Program Leads, you will take full ownership of major program pillars while collaborating closely on overarching compensation philosophy, automation initiatives, and data-driven tooling.

Responsibilities:

- Own & Deliver Core Program Portfolios: Take strategic and operational ownership of assigned program pillars (e.g., focal cycles, equity architecture, salary structures, geo-pay, promotions, or specialized incentive frameworks), with the agility to evolve and rotate portfolio ownership over time.

- Collaborate within the Program Lead Cohort: Partner with peers to ensure strategic alignment, a cohesive global philosophy, and unified program delivery across different business areas and lifecycles.

- Build for Scalability & Self-Service: Work with Comp Ops and Data/Tooling to reduce manual triage by translating compensation rules into automated workflows, AI-assisted self-serve resources, and centralized reporting.

- Establish Policy as Code & Governance: Design transparent guardrails and delegation-of-authority frameworks that empower managers and People partners to make confident pay decisions autonomously.

- Serve as a Macro-Level Strategic Advisor: Advise senior leadership on talent market positioning, pay equity, and organizational design, prioritizing systemic improvements alongside the day-to-day.

Requirements:

- Program / Product Orientation: Proven experience designing, iterating, and scaling enterprise compensation programs end-to-end, in addition to strong frontline consulting instincts.

- Cohort Collaboration & Autonomy: A high degree of independence in driving your portfolios, paired with strong cross-functional collaboration to maintain alignment across the team.

- Systems & AI-First Mindset: A strong instinct to solve edge cases through policy redesign, automation, and self-service tooling rather than repeated manual intervention.

- Analytical & Data Rigor: High proficiency in quantitative modeling and evaluating macro compensation metrics, with comfort partnering alongside data and operations teams.

- Experience & Tools: Substantial compensation experience (level to be calibrated to the role) and fluency with modern comp planning, HRIS, and data/analytics tooling.

We offer a range of benefits, including remote work, medical insurance, flexible time off, retirement savings plans, and modern family planning.
