About ReflexAI

At ReflexAI, we are building the operating system for conversation performance. We believe that people will always be at the center of high-stakes conversations, and our mission is to ensure they enter those conversations with confidence and deliver an exceptional experience every time. Our platform combines hyper-realistic AI-powered training simulations with intelligent QA to support frontline teams in mission-critical conversations. Our platform operates in 25+ languages, is exceptionally customizable to meet each customer’s unique needs, and is used every day by organizations ranging from crisis support call centers to healthcare organizations to customer service teams to sales teams negotiating big deals — any organization where empathy, quality, and excellence matter in every interaction.

What you'll own

• Lead recruiting and talent acquisition. Partner closely with hiring managers to source, attract, and close exceptional candidates, and build a hiring process that reflects best-in-class practices.
• Own people ops end-to-end across the full employee lifecycle, building scalable processes and infrastructure that grow with the company.
• Own benefits and total rewards. Manage benefits enrollment and administration, and help us offer compensation and perks that are competitive, fair, and sustainable.
• Build a great onboarding and offboarding experience so that someone's first days and last days are handled with intention and care.
• Own HR compliance and policies. Ensure we remain compliant with zero deviations across a competitive compliance posture across HIPAA, SOC2, GDPR, HITRUST, and ISO 27001.
• Steward our culture. Build a team culture that is very kind and very competitive as we continue to scale, through both structured team events and routine engagement with employees across the organization.
• Run performance management. Design and operate review cycles, support managers in giving meaningful feedback, and tie performance to growth and development.
• Handle employee relations with empathy and good judgment, serving as a trusted, confidential resource for the team.
• Own our HRIS and people operations systems. Build and maintain a high-performing, integrated tooling stack (ATS, HRIS, analytics, and the integrations between them) that gives us accurate data and smooth operations across the employee lifecycle.
• Drive workforce planning. Collaborate with leadership to forecast hiring needs, build headcount plans that align with budget and business goals, and ensure we have the right people in the right roles as we scale.
