The Role

People Operations at SoFi supports a growing, multi-region workforce across the U.S. and international markets. As we expand into new geographies and continue to mature as a public company, our systems, processes, and service model need to scale with us — without adding unnecessary complexity.

We’re moving from a largely transaction-driven support model to a more standardized, systems-enabled operating model. That means clearer ownership, smarter automation, stronger controls, and processes that actually make sense for the teams using them. We are hiring a Staff People Operations – Process Design to help lead this evolution.

This role reports to the Director of People Operations and operates horizontally across the People Operations function, partnering with our PBPs, COEs, and People Systems teams to design processes and workflows that are clear, scalable, and sustainable over time.

You will be a strong fit for this role if you are someone who thinks in systems, sees patterns across fragmented workflows and has experience building or redesigning processes in complex multi-region environments.

What You’ll Do:

Process & Operating Model Design

Design and maintain end-to-end People Operations processes (hire to retire and core lifecycle events)
Define global standards while accounting for regional requirements
Clarify handoffs between COEs, PBPs, and People Ops to eliminate ambiguity
Separate design from execution while maintaining strong feedback loops from service delivery

Governance, Prioritization & Controls

Establish and govern the intake and prioritization model for People Ops system and process changes
Design and maintain process controls to ensure audit readiness and regulatory compliance; lead remediation when gaps are identified
Maintain alignment between approved service offerings and system/process configuration

Systems & Workflow Enablement

Own the People Operations systems enhancement roadmap (Workday, ServiceNow, integrations)
Translate service requirements into system configurations, workflow logic, and standardized global process flows
Identify manual steps, workflow friction, and automation opportunities; implement system or process improvements to reduce risk and transactional work
Drive self-service and AI-enabled solutions to reduce case volume

Change & Adoption

Partner with COEs, PBPs, and regional People Ops Managers to operationalize changes through SOPs, documentation standards, and knowledge enablement
Ensure changes are implemented consistently and sustainably across regions

What You’ll Need:

8+ years of experience in People Operations, HR Systems, HR Service Delivery, or similar roles
Direct experience designing global HR processes at scale
Strong understanding of Workday business process framework and ServiceNow HRSD workflow design
Experience supporting audit, compliance, or control environments (SOX exposure preferred)
Demonstrated ability to simplify complex, multi-region operations
Strong written and structural thinking skills
Comfortable making decisions and driving alignment across senior stakeholders
