Replica is an enterprise data platform that delivers critical insights about the built environment. With better data, human‑context and an intuitive design, Replica helps public and private sectors make informed, effective, and responsive decisions.

By showing how people live, move and work, we contextualize hard choices, allowing our clients to see around corners and understand the trade‑offs surrounding their decisions. Whether for a city planner increasing public transit to underserved neighborhoods or for a grocery chain evaluating where to open a new location, Replica’s insights help clients make more informed, people‑centered decisions.

We value our customers, believe in being resourceful, and work in service of each other to scale our product. As we build our team, we are committed to pursuing and bringing together a diverse workforce and creating an environment of inclusion. We value our differences and we encourage all to apply. We are committed to equal opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, gender, gender identity, parental or pregnancy status, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, Veteran status, or any other status protected by the laws or regulations in the locations where we operate.

We’re a growing company looking for a capable HR operations generalist who can keep the back office running smoothly while everything else moves fast. This role is for someone who thrives in a startup environment—where you own the details, solve problems proactively, and don’t wait for a perfect process before getting things done.

Payroll & Benefits

• Support accurate, on‑time payroll (current system: Vensure)
• Administer employee benefits including medical, dental, vision, and 401(k)
• Manage employee deductions, contributions, and benefit changes
• Coordinate directly with Vensure and benefits providers
• Serve as the first point of contact for employee pay and benefits questions

Recruiting, Onboarding, Offboarding

• Schedule interviews and support other recruiting logistics
• Own end‑to‑end onboarding: paperwork, systems access, benefits enrollment, and first‑day readiness
• Manage offboarding smoothly and compliantly, including final payroll and benefits transitions
• Maintain organized, up‑to‑date employee records

HR Operations & Compliance

• Support federal and state HR compliance requirements
• Maintain policies, documentation, and required notices
• Keep us audit‑ready without turning the company into a bureaucracy

Office & Operations Support

• Provide general office management and administrative support
• Coordinate vendors, supplies, and operational logistics
• Support ad hoc projects that keep our team running efficiently

• 3+ years of experience in HR operations, payroll, or office management
• Hands‑on payroll experience (Vensure experience strongly preferred)
• Working knowledge of benefits administration and 401(k) plans
• Ability to work independently and make sound judgment calls
• Highly organized, detail‑oriented, and dependable
• Professional, discreet, and trusted with sensitive information

• If you need highly structured processes, multiple layers of approval, or a large HR team to lean on, this role will feel uncomfortable
• If you prefer strictly defined responsibilities and don’t like wearing multiple hats, this won’t be a fit
• If details routinely slip, this is not the role for you
• If you’re looking for a purely strategic HR role with no hands‑on execution

• Real ownership, not busywork
• Flexible, part‑time schedule
• Direct impact on employee experience and company operations
• A startup that values competence over bureaucracy

Compensation:
Competitive hourly rate, based on experience.
