WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Must-Have Qualifications

- 2–4 years of hands-on experience in a Compensation & Perks or HR Operations role.
- Demonstrated experience drafting and issuing offer letters and appointment letters — not just reviewing, but owning the process.
- Exposure to both India and USA hiring practices and the ability to navigate the differences in comp structures.




- Solid understanding of Indian statutory compliance (PF, ESIC, PT, Gratuity, TDS) and working knowledge of US employment basics (at-will employment, FLSA classification, state-specific requirements).
- High proficiency in MS Word and Excel — you are the person others come to for document formatting and data accuracy.
- Extremely high attention to detail — a misplaced number or a missing clause in an offer letter is not acceptable, and you know that.

What Will Set You Apart

- You pick things up quickly. You do not need to be told something twice, and you ask smart questions the first time.
- You can manage multiple open offers simultaneously without dropping the ball on any of them.
- You are comfortable with ambiguity and can operate with minimal hand-holding.
- Experience with HRIS platforms (Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Darwinbox, ClayHR, or similar).
- Exposure to compensation benchmarking tools or surveys (Mercer, Aon, or similar) is a plus.
- A strong communicator — you write clearly, communicate compensation details in plain English (or Hindi when helpful), and can hold your own in a conversation with Finance or Legal.

EDUCATION

- Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Commerce, or a related field. An MBA in HR is preferred but not mandatory if your practical experience is strong.

WORKING STYLE & CULTURE FIT

This role suits someone who is:

- Proactive — you spot issues before they become problems.
- Ownership-driven — you treat every letter that goes out as your signature on it.
- Collaborative — you work well across TA, Finance, Legal, and business leaders.
- Adaptable — US hiring has its quirks, India hiring has its complexity, and you handle both without needing a playbook for every scenario.
- Discreet — compensation data is sensitive. Confidentiality is non-negotiable.
