Senior People Programs Manager at whatnot

This role is designed for an operationally-minded HR professional with 7+ years of experience, specifically within fast-scaling startups or global tech environments. You should be someone who excels at high-stakes "hands-on" execution—moving seamlessly from configuring performance management software to analyzing complex compensation data in Excel. The ideal candidate has already navigated the transition from "building from scratch" to "scaling for complexity." The compensation is competitive ($165k–$195k) and paired with an impressive benefits package, including a 4% 401k match, 16 weeks of parental leave, and unique "dogfooding" stipends to use the platform. While the company operates with a remote-first mindset, this position requires you to be based near one of their core hubs in San Francisco, LA, Seattle, or NYC. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have mastered the lifecycle of performance reviews, talent calibrations, and promotion cycles at scale. * Are a "power user" in Excel and comfortable using data to influence executive-level decisions. * Enjoy the "scrappy" phase of a company where you still need to get into the weeds of system configuration and troubleshooting. * Can simplify complex HR processes into clear, actionable communications for managers.
