People Operations Manager
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.
