Manage benefits, payroll, compliance reporting, and HR operations to support a growing People function. | Requires 2-3+ years HR operations experience with benefits, payroll, compliance knowledge, and HRIS familiarity. | Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place! E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems. We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life. E-Space is growing rapidly and the People function is scaling with it. As headcount increases across multiple US states and international locations, we need dedicated operational ownership of the back-office HR infrastructure that makes everything else work. This role owns the more complex, compliance-heavy domain: the systems and processes that sit underneath the employee experience and that need to be accurate, timely, and audit-ready. This is a new role on the People team, based in Arlington, TX alongside our current People Operations Support Specialist. Together, the two roles form the operational backbone of the People function, each with a distinct remit. The specific portfolio for this role will include: benefits administration, payroll coordination, immigration, compliance reporting, compensation administration, and state agency management for leaves and payroll tax and workers compensation administration. You will work closely with Finance, external counsel, and benefits and insurance brokers, and support the Head of People on benchmarking, reporting and compliance filings. You will not have a formal client-facing HR remit, as this is an operations and systems role, but you will need to be comfortable navigating complexity, managing competing deadlines, and building process in an environment that is still maturing. What You Will Do • Benefits Administration (25–30%) • Administer employee benefits programs including new hire enrollment, qualifying life events, eligibility tracking, and corrections. • Support employees with benefits questions and enrollment processes. • Maintain accurate benefits data across all systems and carriers. • Partner with brokers and carriers to resolve benefits-related issues and discrepancies. • Lead open enrollment planning, execution, and employee communications. • Support the Finance team to reconcile carrier invoices and coordinate payments. • Payroll Administration & State Agency Management (25–30%) • Own payroll input preparation and coordination with Finance to ensure accurate, timely payroll processing across all US entities. • Manage state agency correspondence including unemployment claims (EDD, TWC), employment verification requests, and responses to state-initiated inquiries. • Maintain accurate records of payroll changes, adjustments, and history. • Identify and resolve payroll discrepancies in partnership with Finance and the HRIS. • Compliance Reporting & Documentation (15–20%) • Support the Head of People in preparing and submitting recurring compliance filings (EEO-1, VETS-4212, ACA, and other applicable State and Federal reports). • Maintain accurate digital personnel files and ensure documentation is completed and properly stored. • Track compliance training completion, policy acknowledgments, and required certifications. • Support audit readiness by maintaining data accuracy and preparing documentation on request. • HR Operations & Continuous Improvement (5–10%) • Own and improve HR Operations workflows within your remit, maintaining clear process documentation. • Identify and flag operational gaps or process inefficiencies, and recommend practical improvements. • Collaborate with the People Operations Support Specialist and People Partners through the ticketing system to fulfil data and reporting requests. • Support the broader People team on projects and systems implementations as the company scales. • Immigration Administration (5–10%) • Manage routine immigration case tracking for US work authorization processes (H-1B, OPT/STEM OPT, TN, green card support) in coordination with external immigration counsel. • Maintain accurate immigration records and track key deadlines and renewal timelines. • Serve as the internal point of contact for immigration-related queries, escalating complex matters to counsel and the Head of People. • Compensation Administration Support (10–15%) • Maintain benchmarking data and offer range lookups to support the recruiting and People Partner teams. • Track and maintain the company's compensation data in the HRIS and associated tools. • Provide administrative support for the job leveling framework rollout and ongoing maintenance, working closely with the Head of People. What You Bring To This Role • 2-3+ years of experience in HR operations, total rewards administration, or a related field with meaningful exposure to payroll, benefits, and/or compensation. • Solid understanding of US benefits administration and open enrollment processes. • Familiarity with payroll coordination in a multi-state environment; experience managing state agency correspondence (EDD, TWC, EEOC) strongly preferred. • Working knowledge of US immigration processes or demonstrated ability to manage complex compliance workflows with external counsel. • Strong attention to detail and a high standard for data accuracy: you understand that errors in this domain have real consequences. • Ability to manage multiple concurrent workstreams and deadlines without dropping the ball. • Comfortable building and improving processes in an environment that is still maturing; not reliant on established infrastructure. • High level of discretion when handling sensitive compensation, payroll, and personnel data. • Experience with HRIS platforms required; Rippling experience strongly preferred. • Experience supporting a federal contractor or regulated environment is an advantage. This is a full time, exempt position, based out of our Arlington, TX office. The total compensation package will be determined by various factors such as your relevant job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. E-Space is not currently able to provide employment sponsorship for candidates who do not hold work authorization for the location of this role. Why E-Space is right for you: As a member of our team, you will play a crucial role in driving our success. Our team members have a strong sense of dedication and responsibility; this includes a strong commitment to our mission to create an entirely new suite of global capabilities to improve lives, business efficiencies and build a smarter planet. This means that there will be times when extra hours, including nights and weekends, may be needed to meet critical deadlines and mission goals. In return, we offer a dynamic work environment with opportunities for professional growth and development and the chance to make a meaningful impact in a high-growth industry. We want you to make the most of your journey at E-Space. That’s why we support and invest in the physical, emotional and financial well-being of our team members and their families. Some of what you can expect when working at E-Space: • An opportunity to really make a difference • Sustainability at our core • Fair and honest workplace • Innovative thinking is encouraged • Competitive salaries • Continuous learning and development • Health and wellness care options • Financial solutions for the future • Optional legal services (US only) • Paid holidays • Paid time off We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.

We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

E-Space is expanding its Arlington, TX operations significantly, including the development of a new manufacturing headquarters. Our Texas workforce is one of our most diverse: a mix of engineering, manufacturing, and operations employees spanning exempt and non-exempt populations, with a growing volume of cleared work performed under government contract. We are looking for an HR People Partner who can operate effectively across this breadth. You will be the embedded, onsite People presence in Arlington, handling employee relations, manager support, and day-to-day HR for a workforce that requires both strong process knowledge and the flexibility to operate in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment. You will also carry remote People Partner coverage for one or more of our smaller population international locations. This is a standalone role reporting directly to the Head of People. You will need to exercise independent judgment, know when to escalate, and bring a grounded sense of when a situation calls for a structured process versus a practical solution. If you have come from a large A&D or structured tech environment and you are actively looking to do broader, more varied work in a smaller company, this role is built for that transition. \n What you will do Employee Relations & Casework (30–35%) Serve as the primary ER resource for the Texas employee population, handling performance concerns, conduct issues, disciplinary processes, and interpersonal disputes across both exempt and non-exempt workforces.

Non-US People Partner Coverage (15–20%) Serve as the designated People Partner for 1-2 of E-Space's international teams (either France and Ivory Coast or UK and Germany and EOR-employed staff across multiple locations), operating remotely in this capacity. Develop a working understanding of the employment frameworks in relevant jurisdictions and know when to engage local counsel or escalate to the Head of People. Support employee lifecycle events, ER matters, and manager queries for these populations. People Operations & Project Support (10–15%) Collaborate with the People Ops team on onboarding, lifecycle changes, and day-to-day employee queries, routing operational requests through the ticketing system and picking up relevant queries from the same system to action as directed. Contribute to People team projects including process rollouts, policy updates, job leveling, and systems implementations. Support compliance requirements specific to the Texas site, including those related to government contracting and cleared work. Compliance & Documentation (10%) Ensure ER casework and manager interactions are appropriately documented and stored in accordance with company policy. Support audit readiness for the Texas population, including non-exempt time and pay records, required postings, and government contractor compliance documentation.

Background in aerospace and defense, manufacturing, or structured tech, or a combination. You understand how best practice HR works in a regulated, process-driven environment. Actively looking to broaden your scope: you want the variety and ownership that comes with a smaller, scaling company and you are comfortable without the infrastructure of a large HR function behind you. Strong calibration between process and pragmatism: you know when a situation needs a pragmatic approach and when a formal process is overkill, and vice versa. Experience supporting non-exempt workforces; familiarity with wage and hour compliance is important. Comfort operating in ambiguity and building things that don't yet exist. Proven ability to work independently and exercise sound judgment without a local manager or HR team above you. Familiarity with government contractor HR requirements or cleared work environments is a strong advantage. Experience with HRIS platforms; Rippling experience a plus. Exposure to international HR (France, UK, Germany or other European or African jurisdictions) is advantageous but not required. \n $95,000 - $120,000 a year The estimated range is meant to reflect an anticipated salary range for the position in question, which is based on market data and other factors, all of which are subject to change.
