We’re hiring an Internal Compliance Specialist to help us stay ahead of employment, privacy, and regulatory requirements as we scale. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role where you’ll play a critical part in keeping our operations compliant, efficient, and ready for growth. You will assist in pulling data for SOC 2 audits, oversee state business filings and labor documentation, and ensure compliance with federal, state, and local laws. You’ll be the steady hand behind the scenes, making it possible for our teams to move fast with confidence. If you're detail-oriented, organized, and ready to own the day-to-day operations that keep us compliant and running smoothly — this role is for you.

What You'll Do

• Own and execute multi-state compliance filings, including employment registrations, foreign qualifications, non-payroll tax accounts, and annual reports
• Partner with our registered agent and other vendors to ensure timely submissions and avoid penalties or lapsed registrations
• Manage and maintain compliance documentation, including training records, policy acknowledgments, and census reporting
• Support SOC 2, HIPAA, and ISO audit readiness across HR and People Ops, partnering closely with Finance, Legal, and Security teams
• Monitor employment laws across jurisdictions and ensure company policies stay up to date and aligned with regulatory requirements
• Partner cross-functionally with stakeholders across People, Finance, and Legal to ensure reporting, compliance workflows, and registrations are aligned and up to date
• Partner with the People Operations Lead to develop and deliver compliance training and resources to managers and team members
• Own the internal calendar and workflows for quarterly filings, survey responses (e.g. Census Bureau), and other time-bound compliance tasks

What We Look For

• 4+ years of experience in compliance operations, ideally in a high-growth or multi-state environment
• Deep knowledge of state-specific employment compliance (e.g., paid leave programs, state unemployment, labor registrations)
• Strong understanding of key HR and business compliance frameworks like SOC 2, HIPAA, and ISO
• Demonstrated experience juggling complex, time-sensitive reporting requirements across systems
• Strong proficiency in Excel and ease navigating state portals and compliance management tools
• Strong collaboration skills—you’ll be working closely with People Ops, Payroll, Finance, and Legal
• Experience working in a fast-paced startup environment is preferred
• Located in San Francisco, California, and willing to come into the office on a hybrid basis
