Location: Scottsdale, AZ (Hybrid 3 days in office)
About the Role:

We are looking for a forward-thinking Senior Talent Operations Specialist who operates at the intersection of people, compliance, and cutting-edge technology. In this role, you will not only anchor our day-to-day HR operations and manage intermediate immigration workflows, but you leverage AI solutions to automate repetitive tasks, streamline employee lifecycle processes, and scale our operations intelligently.

If you are a tech-savvy HR professional who loves solving complex problems, navigating visa logistics, and building the future of work using AI, we want to hear from you.
Top Reason to Apply:

• Drive Innovation with AI Integration: This isn't just a traditional HR role; you will actively build the future of work by leveraging cutting-edge generative AI and automation tools to eliminate manual bottlenecks, streamline the employee lifecycle, and scale talent operations intelligently.
• Balance Strategic Autonomy with Compassionate Care: You will have the unique opportunity to combine operational grit with human empathy, acting as a trusted guide for visa-holding employees while utilizing your analytical skills to transform complex data into actionable insights for leadership.

What You'll Do: 

HR Operations & Compliance

• Employee Transaction Management: Oversee end-to-end operational processes, including onboarding, offboarding, internal transfers, and data management within our HRIS system (UltiPro/UKG).
• Data Integrity & Reporting: Maintain pristine data hygiene across all people systems and build regular reports/dashboards to create transparency and clarity on key operations and mobility practices.
• Policy & Compliance: Ensure all HR processes adhere to local, state, and federal labor laws, keeping internal SOPs up to date.
• Workflow Automation: Identify bottlenecks in current HR and immigration pipelines and implement AI-powered solutions.

Immigration & Mobility Management

• Visa Processing: Support the end-to-end immigration process for new hires and transferring employees (including H-1B, L-1, O-1, TN, E-3, and Green Card processes).
• Vendor Liaison: Partner closely with external immigration counsel to ensure timely filings, gather required documentation, and track case statuses.

Employee Support: Serve as a compassionate and knowledgeable resource for visa-holding employees, providing clear guidance on timelines, travel restrictions, and renewals.

What You'll Bring:

A unique blend of operational grit and technical curiosity. You don't just follow a checklist; you look for ways to automate the checklist entirely so you can focus on impactful strategy value adds and employee care.

• 5+ years of experience in HR Operations, People Operations, or Talent Operations, ideally within a fast-paced or scaling tech environment.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.
• Immigration Knowledge: Intermediate understanding of US (and/or international) immigration pathways, visa types, and standard compliance frameworks (I-9 audits, LCA maintenance).
• AI Curiosity & Tech Savviness: You don't just use tech; you love exploring it. You have a proven track record of using generative AI tools (like Gemini, Glean, Notebook LM, Apps Scripts, or specialized HR AI agents) and automation tools to optimize your daily workflows.
• HR Tech Stack: Preferred working knowledge of HR systems: Greenhouse, Jobvite, UltiPro/UKG, Jira, Smartsheet. Proficient in GSuite.
• Analytical Thinking: Strong data literacy with the ability to turn spreadsheet chaos into structured, actionable insights.
• Communication: Exceptional empathy and communication skills, with the ability to explain complex legal jargon or technical AI processes to employees and leaders in simple terms.
