What You’ll Do CoreWeave is seeking a People Operations Specialist to help run the day-to-day operations that keep a rapidly growing, globally distributed workforce supported and compliant. Reporting to the Director, Global People Operations, you will execute core employee lifecycle processes end to end and serve as a reliable first point of contact for employees, managers, and cross-functional partners across People, Talent Acquisition, Legal, Finance, and Payroll. You will work closely with the Senior Global Mobility Partner, providing coordination and administrative support on immigration and relocation cases while owning the broader People Operations workflows that surround them. This is a hands-on execution role: you will follow established playbooks with a high bar for accuracy, flag issues early, and improve the processes and documentation you work in every day. About the Role Employee lifecycle operations Execute onboarding, offboarding, transfers, promotions, and other lifecycle transactions accurately and on schedule. Process Workday changes including job data, compensation, org structure, and employment status, maintaining data integrity across systems.

Communicate clearly and empathetically with employees navigating process changes or time-sensitive requests. Global mobility support Support the Senior Global Mobility Partner with immigration and relocation case coordination, including intake, document collection, status tracking, and routine employee updates. Maintain global mobility trackers and case records so status, deadlines, and next steps are always current and audit-ready. Coordinate logistics with immigration counsel and relocation vendors, following established workflows and escalating exceptions rather than making independent determinations. Assist with right-to-work verification, start-date readiness checks, and relocation payroll handoffs under defined guidance. Escalate immigration, cross-border, and compliance judgment calls to the Senior Global Mobility Partner or Legal. Compliance and documentation Maintain accurate, complete employee records and mobility files in line with retention and privacy requirements. Support audits, compliance reviews, and periodic data checks by preparing records and reconciling discrepancies. Follow established controls for handling confidential and sensitive employee data. Track upcoming compliance milestones and deadlines, surfacing risks to the appropriate owner in advance. Process, systems, and reporting Execute and document repeatable workflows across Workday, Greenhouse, Asana, and case-management and vendor platforms.
