- Design and implement AI-enabled workflows for offers, merit, promotions, and market adjustments.
- Build human-in-the-loop validation frameworks to audit AI recommendations for bias, accuracy, and logic.
- Operate compensation planning cycles and generate first-pass recommendations for comp decisions.
- Build dashboards and analytical frameworks for market competitiveness, internal equity, retention risk, and workforce cost.
Requirements
- 8+ years in compensation, total rewards, or related analytical roles, preferably at a high-growth tech company.
- Deep expertise in salary bands, equity design, and market benchmarking (broad-based, sales, and executive).
- Strong systems thinking ability to translate policy into scalable workflows and decision logic.
- Product mindset with a focus on users, workflows, and iteration.
- Comfortable partnering with Data/Engineering teams on data architecture and internal tooling.
