Nutanix is seeking a Senior Payroll Specialist to lead payroll operations for its India office. This is a key finance role supporting India operations within a fast-growing, international technology company. You will own the end-to-end payroll process for India, including data collection and validation, payroll processing via GreytHR and NetSuite, compliance management, and month-end close activities. Responsibilities include preparing and maintaining payroll/compliance calendars, ensuring timely data collection and processing, reviewing payroll reports for accuracy, handling payroll funding and employee payments, preparing payroll journals and general ledger entries, managing payroll records, and ensuring all statutory compliance deadlines are met (Provident Fund, Professional Tax, Labour Welfare Fund, Income Tax filings). You will serve as the primary contact for HR and employees on payroll queries, provide audit support to government and external auditors, and collaborate closely with Accounting, HR, Compensation & Benefits, Stock Administration, Tax, and headquarters teams. The role requires a proactive, hands-on approach combined with team management experience—you'll drive process improvements and automation while remaining operationally engaged in day-to-day execution. Required qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Accounting; 6–8 years of payroll processing experience with mandatory India payroll and compliance expertise; general ledger accounting experience; proficiency in GreytHR, NetSuite, and Indian tax/wage laws; strong MS Office and Excel skills; ability to work with minimal supervision; excellent communication and organizational skills; and comfort in dynamic, international business environments. You should be a strong team player with cross-cultural flexibility and the ability to meet tight deadlines.
