• Manage Rippling cases from opening to closure, working closely with Rippling representatives to resolve issues quickly and keep stakeholders informed.
• Run payroll operations accurately and on time, and partner with People & Talent Lead and Finance on approvals.
• Manage payroll tax registrations and agency notices as we hire in new states and localities in Rippling.
• Own the new hire onboarding experience, from offer acceptance through the first 30 days.
• Lead new hire orientation and set every new Eudian up for success from day one.
• Partner with the People & Talent Lead and hiring managers to design first-week experiences and role-specific onboarding plans.
• Complete I-9 and E-Verify on time and keep onboarding documentation audit-ready.
• Manage offboarding, ensuring every change is accurate through the final paycheck.
• Keep employee data clean through regular audits, and build reports for headcount, audits, and leadership requests.
• Serve as the first point of contact for employee questions about payroll, benefits, and our people systems.
• Support ad hoc projects and initiatives for the People & Talent function as needed.

Qualifications:

• 2+ years of experience in HR operations, payroll, or people systems, preferably in a fast-paced, technology-driven environment.
• Hands-on experience with Rippling or a similar HRIS, such as ADP, Gusto, or Paylocity.
• Experience running new hire onboarding and orientation, with working knowledge of I-9 and E-Verify requirements.
• Working knowledge of payroll operations and payroll tax registrations.
• Exceptional attention to detail, with a track record of catching errors before they reach employees.
• Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills, including lookups, pivot tables, and reconciliations.
• Sound judgment and discretion with confidential employee and compensation data.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a customer service mindset.
