Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The People Ops Lead will manage full-cycle recruiting across diverse technical and operational functions while establishing the company's HRIS, payroll, and benefits infrastructure. Additionally, the role involves ensuring state-by-state employment compliance, managing immigration processes, and overseeing performance management cycles.
The ideal candidate has experience scaling hardware or energy startups from small teams to over 150 employees and possesses hands-on expertise with ATS, HRIS, and payroll systems. Proficiency in multi-state employment compliance, including California-specific wage-and-hour regulations, is required.
Location: Mountain View, CA
Every solar and wind power plant is a latent data center. Rune connects wasted power to the compute that needs it. Solar plants generate electricity the grid can't take: clipped by inverters, curtailed by operators, gone before it ever reaches a meter. Meanwhile, AI needs more power than new construction can deliver in time.
Rune deploys hardware, software, and financial solutions to put this power to work. We build modular micro data centers that install directly at solar sites, bypassing the traditional grid entirely and turning stranded power into compute. We're backed by Spark Capital, Union Square Ventures, and Lowercarbon Capital.
Rune is hiring a People Ops Lead to own recruiting, people operations, and people compliance.
You will run full-cycle hiring across all functions, including manufacturing, supply chain, field operations, engineering, and commercial roles. Our ideal candidate brings a clear point of view on how fast-growing startups attract and close exceptional, in-demand talent. You will own the people operations foundation: HRIS and payroll stack, benefits, onboarding, and performance practices sized for our stage. You will also own compliance state by state, along with managing visa and immigration processes for our team.
Own full-cycle recruiting across engineering, site operations, deployment, supply chain and manufacturing, compute sales, power and project finance, and corporate.
Identify and build strong sourcing channels for each function - this may include outreach to trade schools, apprenticeship programs, contract manufacturers, utilities, EPCs, IPPs, OEMs, and adjacent sectors including traditional data centers, EV, aerospace, and semiconductor fab.
Define the screening and interview process for each role we hire, to ensure a process where every candidate is evaluated against consistent criteria and each decision reflects a fair, well-rounded view of the candidate.
Own recruiting operations across the ATS, pipeline reporting, interviewing, and a weekly hiring review.
Own the HRIS stack, payroll, and benefits, including open enrollment and any selection or migration as we outgrow our current setup.
Administer the equity program in partnership with Finance and outside counsel - grants, refreshes, board approvals, and employee education.
Partner with function leads to develop onboarding plans to get new hires integrated quickly
Design and run performance and feedback cycles aligned with the stage of the company
Own employment compliance in every state where we operate: entity and payroll tax registration, wage-and-hour rules for non-exempt field staff, state requirements, overtime and travel-time treatment, leave administration, and required postings and training.
Own the immigration program in partnership with outside counsel.
Administer workers' compensation coverage and claims in partnership with our broker.
Maintain personnel records, I-9s, training and certification records, and access provisioning and deprovisioning in a way that satisfies our SOC 2 controls
You have personally filled engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, inventory, field technician, and/or energy-side roles.
Experience at a hardware, energy, or manufacturing startup that scaled from roughly a small team to 150+ employees.
Hands-on ownership of an ATS, including configuration, pipeline hygiene, and reporting. We use Polymer; direct experience with it is a plus.
Experience supporting immigration filings for technical staff.
Working command of multi-state employment compliance, including wage-and-hour rules for non-exempt workers and California-specific requirements.
Direct experience owning HRIS and payroll administration, benefits, and compensation benchmarking.
What We Offer: Competitive base and strategic ownership in what we believe will be one of the largest infrastructure build-outs of the decade.
