• Assist with periodic reviews and updates to the Employee Handbook, as requested
• Assist with managing onboarding and offboarding for India-based employees, including documentation, background verification, and exit formalities
• Maintain accurate, up-to-date employee records in the HRIS
• Support statutory compliance activities
• Respond to employee questions on policies, benefits, and HR procedures
• Assist with recruitment coordination — scheduling interviews, preparing offer letters, and tracking background checks
• Support employee engagement and culture initiatives for the India team
• Conduct internal audits to check HR process compliance and consistency
• Partner with the Sr. HR Regional Director on ad hoc regional and global HR projects
• Maintain a high level of confidentiality when handling sensitive employee information
• Assist with any visa letters required for business travel

What You'll Need to Be Successful:

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field; or equivalent experience
• 2–4 years of progressive HR generalist or HR associate experience, ideally within a multinational or technology company
• Working knowledge of Indian labor law and statutory compliance requirements (PF, ESI, Gratuity, POSH, Shops & Establishment Act)
• Experience with an HRIS platform (e.g., BambooHR, ADP, Workday, or similar)
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the confidence to partner directly with a U.S.-based manager and stakeholders across time zones
• High level of discretion, professionalism, and sound judgment with confidential information
• Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail
• Proficiency in MS Office particularly Excel for reporting is a requirement
• Ability to work independently, prioritize competing demands, and manage time well in a remote-reporting structure
• Experience in the use of AI would be beneficial
