The listing
About Tribe AI
At Tribe, we're on a mission to help enterprises realize the value of AI for their business. Every large enterprise wants to use AI to transform how they operate — but many don't have the capabilities to do it. That gap is our opportunity.
We're an AI-native services company that helps enterprises build and deploy best-in-class AI products that deliver real business impact. We partner closely with OpenAI and Anthropic, giving us rare visibility into the most advanced models, roadmaps, and GTM strategies in the world.
About the Role
We're hiring a Senior People Operations Manager to build and own the operational side of Tribe's people function, and to build the infrastructure that lets it scale ahead of the company. Rippling is our source of truth, and you'll make it rock solid. But the real work is what you build on top of it: the integrations, automations, and processes that take manual work out of every hire, change, leave, and exit.
You'll own the full employee lifecycle, from offer through offboarding. You'll own benefits administration end to end, and you'll be the employee advocate and the front door for HR questions. You're a strategic, systems-minded builder who sees a need, raises it, and brings a solution, and you aren't afraid to get your hands dirty.
You'll own the operational side of our people function as a close partner, and you'll be the person who makes our internal systems as thoughtful as what we build for clients. As an AI-native company, we hold ourselves to that standard.
What You'll Be Doing
Systems, Automation & Data
Own Rippling as our source of truth, and the integrations and automations built on top of it: Ashby, our internal tools, and our MCP and AI integrations
Audit and continuously optimize our setup: find what we should be doing better and rebuild it
Build and own our reporting function and people data
Employee Lifecycle
Own offer generation and sending, from approval through signature
Own onboarding, from the backend automation to the new-hire experience
Own offboarding, employment changes, leaves of absence, and time-off requests
Keep people data accurate and flowing cleanly to cross functional partners
Benefits, Compliance & Work Authorization
Own benefits administration end to end: enrollment, renewals, carrier relationships, and evolving our approach as we scale
Own state registrations, payroll tax and unemployment registrations, compliance, and record-keeping
Run immigration and work authorization alongside outside counsel
Create and manage policy
Employee Advocate
Be the first stop for HR questions: resolve, or route to the right person
About You
A builder with a track record of owning HR operations and systems end to end at a rapidly scaling company (typically 7+ years)
Deep, hands-on expertise in Rippling implementation and optimization
Proven experience building automation and integrations
Benefits administration experience across models (PEO, EOR, in-house), including having led or been closely involved in a transition between them
Experience with multi-state and international compliance, and with work authorization
You see a need, raise it, and bring a solution
You value close partnership and collaboration
A strategic, systems thinker who is just as comfortable doing the work yourself
Fluent with AI tools in your own work, with real examples of automations or workflows you built
Nice to Have
Compensation experience: creating and administering bands, benchmarking data, and cycle mechanics
Experience with Ashby
Experience building MCP or API-based integrations
