You will design and run the onboarding experience for engineers and operations staff joining a company whose work happens in the office and in the lab, and you will own the employment compliance surface underneath it, from multi-state registrations and classification to benefits, leave, and policy. Own multi-state employment compliance (currently TX, CA, FL, OR, UT, MT, NC, PA), including state registrations, wage-and-hour rules, exempt and non-exempt classifications, required postings, I-9 and E-Verify, and statutory filings.
