Hut 8 operates large-scale data centers for next-generation computing workloads including AI, colocation, cloud, and Bitcoin mining. As Principal of People Operations, you will own the transactional and compliance backbone of the employee experience across HQ and multiple sites in several states.
You will manage the complete employee lifecycle: onboarding (paperwork, I-9 verification, background checks, system setup, Day 1 logistics, relocation) and offboarding (separation documentation, access removal, equipment recovery, final pay processing, termination workflows). You'll maintain all HRIS records and process lifecycle changes including promotions, transfers, title changes, compensation updates, manager changes, and leaves of absence. You'll prepare termination letters, separation documentation, and employee records for legal requests, ensuring multi-state compliance with notices, I-9 recordkeeping, and state-specific documentation.
You'll administer leave of absence with external providers, support benefits enrollment, and ensure pay-impacting changes are delivered before payroll cutoffs. You'll serve as the first point of contact for employee service requests, managing the People shared inbox and request queue to SLA, issuing verifications and letters, and maintaining the handbook and knowledge base. You'll own AuditBoard management, including evidence collection, audit responses, and remediation tracking. You'll conduct recurring audits of employee data and files, track completion metrics and SLAs, and identify process gaps to propose improvements. You'll partner cross-functionally with Payroll, Benefits, Recruiting, IT, Finance, Legal, and People Systems teams.
This is a hands-on role on a small People team supporting multiple sites. You must be in office in Brickell with occasional same-day turnaround capability.
