We're looking for a Payroll Analyst to support our U.S. payroll operations and help ensure every pay cycle is accurate, compliant, and on time. This role reports to the Global Payroll Lead and is based in San Francisco. In addition to supporting U.S. payroll, you'll be introduced to our global payroll processes and will learn how we work with our global payroll provider in EMEA and Latam.

What will you be doing?

  • Support end-to-end U.S. payroll processing activities each pay period, including validations and coordination of inputs.
  • Audit payroll changes (new hires, terminations, leaves, salary changes, variable pay, deductions) to ensure accuracy.
  • Help resolve payroll issues and employee questions in a timely, clear, and confidential manner.
  • Run payroll reports and perform reconciliations (register validations, deductions, taxes, benefits, and other audits as needed).
  • Maintain and improve payroll documentation, checklists, and control processes.
  • Partner with People Ops, Rev Ops, Finance, and Benefits partners to ensure data integrity across systems.
  • Learn and support global payroll workflows and the global payroll provider process (data inputs, reporting, and issue resolution).

What skills and experience do you need?

  • Experience supporting U.S. payroll operations (payroll processing support, audits, or reconciliations).
  • Working knowledge of core payroll concepts : earnings, deductions, taxation, garnishments, and benefits.
  • Comfort with multi-state payroll considerations and compliance sensitivity.
  • Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills (lookups, pivots, data validation) and strong attention to detail.
  • Ability to handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion.
  • Clear communication skills and a customer-service mindset when supporting employees.
  • Eagerness to learn global payroll processes and new systems.
  • Front operates on a hybrid model we come together in the office each Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday to collaborate and stay connected.

    What we offer

  • Competitive salary
  • Equity (we are post-series D & backed by some of the best VCs in the US)
  • Private health insurance, including plan options at no cost to employees
  • Paid parental leave
  • Flexible time off policy
