People Operations Analyst
Location: Mountain View, CA
Reports to: Manager, People Operations
About the Role
Are you ready to stop doing traditional, manual HR administration and start building the future of People Operations?
At ID.me, we are completely reimagining how HR functions. We aren't just maintaining the status quo; we are aggressively automating routine tasks, deploying AI agents, and building a "zero-touch" operations center. We are looking for a People Operations Analyst who is part HR Generalist, part process-engineer, and entirely obsessed with the employee experience.
You won't just be managing a queue of tickets. You will be actively participating in our transformation, documenting workflows, training our AI chatbots, and building self-service tools. As our AI capabilities mature and handle our Tier 0 and Tier 1 volume, your role will focus on solving complex escalations and driving critical programmatic work across the entire employee lifecycle, compliance, people analytics, and learning & development.
If you want to help take a high-growth company to IPO readiness by replacing manual bottlenecks with self-driving solutions, this is the role for you.
- Drive HR Automation & AI Enablement
- Build the Brain: Partner with the People Ops Manager to build and refine the Knowledge Base (KB) articles and documentation that power our internal AI chatbots, with the goal of maximizing the deflection of routine Tier 0 and Tier 1 inquiries.
- Process Reengineering: Help audit and automate critical HR lifecycle transactions. You will actively support our transition from manual processing to manager self-service and automated workflows across the entire employee journey.
-
Data-Driven Insights: Support the deployment and maintenance of People Analytics reporting, ensuring that critical workforce data flows seamlessly and accurately to inform leadership decisions.
-
Complex Escalation & Employee Support
- Human-in-the-Loop Problem Solving: Serve as the primary escalation point for complex, sensitive, or edge-case employee inquiries in our HR ticketing portal that require a personalized, human touch.
-
Root Cause Obsession: You won't just close tickets, you'll analyze them. Identify why escalations are happening and partner with the team to build permanent, automated fixes or self-service workflows to proactively address underlying issues.
-
Program Ownership (Employee Lifecycle, Compliance & L&D)
- Employee Lifecycle Management: Serve as the primary steward of the employee experience from day one onward. You will support managers through key lifecycle events, manage end-to-end offboarding logistics, and provide operational support for our immigration and visa programs.
- PMO & Project Management: Serve as the operational coordinator for the People Team's PMO (Project Management Office). You will help keep the entire team accountable and on track with our departmental OKRs, ensuring strategic initiatives are measured and delivered on time.
- Compliance & Risk Management: Manage compliance administration to ensure IPO readiness. This includes running EEO-1 reporting, automating workers' compensation claim intake, maintaining I-9/E-Verify compliance, and supporting SOX control documentation.
- L&D Coordination: Act as the operational backbone for ID.me University (Absorb LMS). You will ensure 100% enrollment and completion of mandatory compliance and anti-harassment training, build compliance dashboards, and troubleshoot LMS workflows.
What We're Looking For
- Experience: 1-3 years of experience in HR Operations, HR Generalist, or HR Shared Services roles, ideally within a scaling tech environment.
- Systems Expertise: Hands-on experience with modern HR tech stacks. Experience with UKG, Jira Service Management, Enboarder, and LMS platforms is a strong plus.
- Automation Mindset: You hate doing the same manual task twice. You think in workflows, logic, and scalability, and you are excited to leverage AI tools (like Claude or Glean) to optimize your own day-to-day work.
- Project & OKR Execution: You are highly organized and capable of managing deliverables against team OKRs, ensuring deadlines are met without dropping the ball on daily operations.
- Cross-Functional Empathy: You can clearly and compassionately communicate with everyone from a confused new hire to external legal counsel, translating complex HR jargon into simple, actionable steps.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a HR Operations Analyst
Verify your degree supports specialty occupation
USCIS requires your degree field to directly relate to HR operations work. A business administration or HR degree maps cleanly, but an unrelated degree can trigger an RFE. Document how your coursework connects to HRIS management, workforce analytics, or compliance.
Target employers with HRIS implementation cycles
Companies mid-rollout on Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or Oracle HCM need HR Ops Analysts urgently and sponsor H-1B more readily. Search for job postings referencing system migrations or digital transformation initiatives, as those roles have clearer specialty occupation justification.
Search H-1B filing history on Migrate Mate
Filter HR Operations Analyst roles by employers with verified H-1B LCA filings using Migrate Mate. This surfaces companies that have already certified the role as a specialty occupation with DOL, cutting out guesswork about which employers will actually sponsor.
Request a prevailing wage check before negotiating
Your employer must pay the DOL prevailing wage for your location and role level. Run an OFLC Wage Search for SOC code 13-1071 before you reach offer stage so you're negotiating from the correct wage floor, not below it.
Confirm cap-exempt status for university or nonprofit employers
HR Ops Analyst roles at universities, nonprofit research institutions, or government-affiliated organizations may qualify for cap-exempt H-1B petitions, bypassing the lottery entirely. Ask HR directly whether the organization files under INA 214(c)(1) exemptions.
Start your employer's LCA filing 30 days early
The LCA must be certified by DOL before your I-129 petition goes to USCIS. HR departments unfamiliar with the timeline often underestimate this step. Push for LCA submission at least 30 days before the April 1 filing window opens to avoid missing the cap season.
H-1B Visa HR Operations Analyst: Frequently Asked Questions
Does an HR Operations Analyst role qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
Yes, provided the position requires at least a bachelor's degree in human resources, business administration, organizational behavior, or a closely related field. Roles centered on HRIS administration, workforce data analysis, or HR compliance documentation typically satisfy the specialty occupation standard. Generic administrative duties without a degree requirement weaken the case, so job descriptions should specify the degree connection explicitly.
Which industries most consistently sponsor H-1B visas for HR Operations roles?
Technology companies, financial services firms, large healthcare systems, and HR technology vendors sponsor HR Ops Analysts most consistently because they operate enterprise HRIS platforms that require specialized expertise. Shared services centers within multinational corporations are also reliable sponsors. You can identify employers with verified H-1B filing history for this role by browsing Migrate Mate, which surfaces LCA data by occupation.
Can I switch employers during my H-1B and continue working in HR operations?
Yes. Under H-1B portability rules established by AC21, you can start working for a new employer as soon as they file a new H-1B petition on your behalf, provided your current petition has been approved and you've maintained valid status. You don't need to wait for the new petition to be approved. The new employer must still file an LCA and I-129 covering your HR Operations Analyst duties.
What SOC code applies to HR Operations Analyst positions for the H-1B LCA?
Most HR Operations Analyst roles file under SOC code 13-1071, Human Resources Specialists, or 11-3121, Human Resources Managers, depending on whether the role has supervisory scope. The SOC code determines the prevailing wage your employer must certify on the LCA. You can verify the correct classification and associated wage level using the OFLC Wage Search or the O*NET occupation profile before your employer submits the LCA to DOL.
Does working in HR give me any advantage in understanding the H-1B process as an applicant?
Familiarity with HR workflows helps you ask the right questions during hiring, such as confirming whether an employer has filed LCAs for your specific SOC code before. You can verify public LCA filing data independently and flag timeline risks your prospective employer may not have anticipated. That said, knowing the process from the employer side doesn't replace the need for a qualified immigration attorney or filing service to handle your own petition.
