ABOUT THIS ROLE

We are an AI company building tools for HR operations and payroll processing at mid-to-large organisations. Our AI handles payroll input validation, statutory deduction calculations (PF, ESI, TDS, PT), HRIS data change requests, and HR workflow automation — the same processes that HR operations teams run monthly. We need HR and payroll professionals who have personally processed payroll or managed HRIS workflows and can tell us from real monthly run experience where the AI is getting it right and where the exceptions will trip it up.

WORKFLOWS COVERED

Monthly payroll processing — input collection, gross-to-net calculation, statutory deductions (PF, ESI, TDS, PT, Gratuity), and disbursement
HRIS data management — employee lifecycle events (joiners, leavers, transfers, promotions), master data updates in SAP HCM, Workday, or equivalent
Onboarding and offboarding process management — documentation, system access, relieving formalities
Leave and attendance management — policy application, integration with payroll, exception handling
HR compliance — PF, ESI, TDS returns, labour law compliance, professional tax across states

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Share how HR operations and payroll processing work in practice — the monthly payroll cycle, HRIS data management, statutory compliance, and the exception handling that makes up real operations
Review payroll process designs, compliance checklists, or calculation outputs and tell us where they would fail in a real Indian payroll environment
Help us understand the practical complexity of HR and payroll operations — multi-state compliance, correction workflows, employee lifecycle edge cases — from someone who has run these processes
Advise on what good HR operations and payroll management looks like and where process descriptions or outputs miss the practical realities

YOU ARE THE RIGHT FIT IF

Minimum 3 years in HR operations or payroll processing — hands-on monthly runs, not just oversight or audit
Have personally processed payroll for at least 200+ employees or managed HRIS data across a substantial employee base
Know Indian payroll compliance from doing it — PF, ESI, TDS, Professional Tax, Gratuity, Bonus Act — not just awareness
Used platforms such as SAP HCM, Workday, ADP, Darwin Box, Keka, or Greytip in daily payroll or HRIS operations

NICE TO HAVE

Payroll certification — NSDC-certified payroll professional or equivalent
Workday HCM or SAP SuccessFactors certification
Experience with multi-state payroll compliance in India or global payroll for an India-based MNC
Pay - 2,000 – 3,000 per hour
