Full Job Description




About the Role

We believe in-person time is one of the most powerful tools we have for accelerating company priorities. Thoughtful in-person experiences deepen relationships and create the kind of learning that's harder to replicate async. And when you have an office, you can make it something more: a physical home for great work.

We are hiring a Senior IC to own both the SF hub and the programs that make in-person time worth it for the whole company: offsites, travel, onboarding weeks, and the recurring rituals that build trust across a distributed team. In-person time is part of how we execute: when we gather, it should accelerate a real company priority, and you should be able to articulate what it was meant to unlock and what changed because it happened.

This role is stewardship with impact. You care about the details in the space and the tone of a room. You think about atmosphere, energy, and quality. At the same time, you operate with rigor. You close loops. You build systems. You make sure great experiences are repeatable, not accidental.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as the primary on-site lead for the SF hub, owning the day-to-day operations, budget, and experience, and partnering with IT, People, Recruiting, Finance, and vendors to hold it to that standard
  • Design and run employee engagement programs with clear intent: offsites, travel, onboarding experiences, and recurring in-office rituals that connect to company priorities
  • Own the travel program end-to-end: vendor selection, rollout, documentation, and continuous improvement
  • Lead initiatives from concept through execution and iteration, bringing structure to ambiguity without waiting for perfect direction
  • Manage vendors and budgets with strong service quality and financial discipline
  • Develop the feedback loops and measurement systems that make intangible experiences legible: synthesize what you learn into clear priorities, make changes, and track whether they held


What we're looking for

  • 6+ years in workplace ops, employee experience, or people ops in a fast-paced environment, with a track record of owning programs from idea through iteration
  • Strong operational instincts: responsive, organized, and wired to build systems - nothing falls through the cracks twice
  • Strong experience instincts: you notice what feels off, you know why it matters, and you adjust quickly
  • Ability to design backward from outcomes and articulate the purpose behind the work
  • Comfort working with cross-functional stakeholders, including EPD teams and senior leaders
  • Experience managing travel programs, offsites, and vendor relationships with budget accountability
  • Bonus: Familiarity with CultureAmp, Notion, Ramp, TravelPerk, Slack, Google Workspace
