From the original posting
Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.
About the role
We’re looking for a Global Mobility and Compliance Manager to build and scale our mobility programs as we grow a world-class, in-person team across the U.S. and internationally. You’ll own end-to-end global mobility operations — from immigration and visas to relocations, compliance, and employee experience — helping us hire and move exceptional talent quickly and thoughtfully. This role sits within the People team and partners closely with Recruiting, Legal, Finance, and leadership to ensure our mobility strategy enables ambitious hiring goals while maintaining a high bar for compliance and care.
This is a high-impact, hands-on role for someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, enjoys solving complex cross-border challenges, and wants to help shape how a talent-dense company scales globally.
What you’ll do
Own and manage all aspects of U.S. and international immigration programs (e.g., H-1B, O-1, TN, L-1, PERM, etc.), partnering with external counsel where appropriate
Lead end-to-end employee relocations (domestic and international), delivering a high-touch, seamless experience
Develop and maintain global mobility policies, guidelines, and internal documentation
Ensure compliance with immigration, tax, payroll, and employment regulations across jurisdictions
Partner with Recruiting to assess visa feasibility and mobility options for candidates
Track key mobility metrics, manage case workflows, and maintain accurate documentation and reporting
Evaluate and manage mobility vendors (immigration counsel, relocation providers, tax advisors)
Proactively identify risks and implement scalable processes as we grow into new geographies
Advise employees and managers on mobility timelines, expectations, and best practices
You may be a fit if
You have 6+ years of experience in global mobility, immigration, or international HR operations
You’ve managed U.S. immigration programs in-house and are comfortable navigating complex cases
You understand cross-border tax, relocation logistics, and compliance considerations
You’re highly detail-oriented and operationally rigorous, but pragmatic when speed is required
You’re comfortable working in a flat, high-ownership environment with minimal bureaucracy
You communicate clearly and confidently with candidates, employees, executives, and external counsel
You’re excited about building programs from scratch and improving them continuously
You care deeply about employee experience and balancing compliance with empathy & urgency
You’re willing to work in-person in San Francisco or New York
If you’re energized by enabling exceptional people to do their best work — wherever they’re coming from — we’d love to talk.
