People Operations Specialist

Mountain View, CA

About the Role 

DensityAI builds the AI accelerator silicon powering the next generation of compute. We're roughly doubling headcount over the next 18 months and need a People Operations Specialist to be the operational backbone that growth depends on: onboarding every new hire cleanly, keeping our systems and records accurate, and running benefits and compliance on time. Our processes are young, so this is a build role, not a maintenance one. 

What You'll Do

  • Run end-to-end onboarding at volume: offer logistics, background checks, I-9/E-Verify, IT provisioning handoffs, and a consistent day one
  • Own the HRIS (Rippling) as the system of record: data accuracy, org and reporting structure, lifecycle changes, workflows, and permissions
  • Produce trustworthy people reporting on a predictable cadence, primarily headcount vs. plan, plus hiring, attrition, and cost
  • Administer benefits through our Rippling PEO: enrollments, life events, and open enrollment, coordinating with our PEO account team
  • Manage the Rippling PEO relationship and handle the compliance that stays in-house (I-9, postings, state pay-transparency and leave), keeping data clean for the filings the PEO owns (payroll tax, workers' comp, ACA)
  • Track work-authorization and immigration status with legal support
  • Build the repeatable processes that let People Ops scale, and be a first point of contact for routine employee questions
  • Provide payroll inputs (processed via the PEO) and data support to comp and headcount planning

What We're Looking For

  • 3+ years in People Operations, HR operations, or HRIS administration at a scaling company
  • Hands-on HRIS ownership (Rippling, Workday, or similar), including reporting and configuration
  • Experience running onboarding and administering benefits, ideally in a PEO / co-employment model
  • Working knowledge of US employment-compliance basics, and strong accuracy instincts
  • Comfort creating process where none exists, and discretion with confidential data

Full compensation packages are based on candidate experience and relevant certifications. 

California pay range

$94,000 - $174,000 USD

Compensation

Final offers depend on level, location, and skills relevant to the role. Additional compensation: equity grant per company guidelines; medical / dental / vision; 401(k); standard PTO. 

Visa Sponsorship

DensityAI sponsors qualified candidates for H-1B, O-1, TN, E-3, and other employment-based visas, and we welcome applicants on F-1 OPT and STEM-OPT. Work authorization is required at start; we provide immigration support to secure or transfer status.

Export Controls

Aspects of this role may involve access to information subject to U.S. export controls (EAR/ITAR). We may discuss licensing or scope adjustments during the interview.

Equal Opportunity

DensityAI is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religious creed, national origin, ancestry, physical or mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, age (40+), sexual orientation, military or veteran status, pregnancy, or any other status protected by law. We comply with the California CROWN Act and provide reasonable accommodations on request.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 07/31/2029

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
