Tutor Intelligence Visa Sponsorship USA

The Company

Tutor Intelligence is building the technology and processes to let robots go where they’ve never gone before: the average American factory and warehouse. We understand that general-purpose and generally intelligent robots are going to be built in our lifetimes, and we’re not content to sit on the sidelines.

Founded by MIT alumni and backed with over $40M in funding by leading investors in AI and robotics, Tutor combines human and artificial intelligence to build something greater than the sum of its parts — a Tutor Intelligence. As an AI software company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, every line of code, process change, and decision at Tutor has a direct impact on the physical economy.

We’re seeking an ambitious People Operations Manager who wants to shape the foundation of a startup building the future of manual work.

We believe something special happens when talented, motivated people work together with respect and low ego. At Tutor, every team member is empowered to have real impact and is trusted to take ownership of meaningful problems. We value technical excellence, intellectual honesty, collaboration, and thoughtful urgency.

The Role

As People Operations Manager, you will serve as the operational backbone of the People team. You'll own the systems, processes, and infrastructure that make the employee experience work — recruiting coordination, HRIS, compliance, metrics, and people experience — independently and with minimal oversight, in a true ownership role at a 90-person startup.

Your Responsibilities

• Coordinate recruiting operations, including interview scheduling, candidate communications, job postings, and ATS management.
• Manage employee lifecycle processes such as onboarding, role changes, and offboarding.
• Administer and optimize the HRIS (Rippling), ensuring accurate employee data and efficient workflows.
• Support benefits, payroll coordination, and external partner relationships (e.g., PEO, vendors).
• Build and maintain people data dashboards and reports covering recruiting, headcount, and retention metrics.
• Ensure HR compliance through documentation management, policy updates, and monitoring regulatory requirements.
• Serve as a first point of contact for employee HR questions and maintain internal HR documentation and resources.
• Support onboarding programs, culture initiatives, and company-wide people programs.

Who You Are

• 3–5 years of experience in a people operations, HR, or talent operations role
• A true independent operator who owns their work completely, builds their own processes, and doesn't need to be chased
• Comfortable with data — can pull, organize, and present people metrics clearly
• Strong working knowledge of an HRIS platform — Rippling experience a strong plus
• Familiar with PEO relationships and how to maximize them
• Solid understanding of basic employment compliance — knows what they know and knows when to escalate
• Detail-oriented with strong execution instincts across multiple workstreams simultaneously
• Mature judgment, especially in sensitive HR and employee relations contexts
• Strong communicator with candidates, employees, and cross-functional partners
• Comfortable building and maintaining systems, documentation, and knowledge bases from scratch
• Startup or high-growth environment experience preferred

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive salary and meaningful equity
• Fully employer-covered health and dental insurance
• 401(k)
• Unlimited PTO
• Regular in-office meals and team events
• A collaborative, low-ego environment where people are trusted to do their best work
