Support managers and employees with performance feedback cycles, employee relations, and policy interpretation
Ensure HR compliance with federal, state, and local employment laws and regulations
Maintain HR systems and records with accuracy and confidentiality
Assist with company-wide initiatives like engagement surveys, training programs, and organizational planning
Help scale HR operations to match the pace of growth across field and HQ teams

Qualifications:

2–5 years of HR experience in a generalist or people ops role, preferably in a fast-paced or industrial environment
Working knowledge of employment law, benefits administration, and HR best practices
Excellent communication skills and ability to navigate sensitive conversations with professionalism and discretion
Proficient with HRIS tools and Google Workspace
