Compensation Intelligence Lead

Quince

7d•$180,000 - $220,000

About The Position

Quince is hiring its first Compensation Intelligence Lead to join the Global Rewards team. This is a foundational, technical build role: you will design and construct the data systems, automated pipelines, and AI-powered tooling that power how Quince thinks about compensation — from offer to equity refresh to market benchmarking. This role is for someone who leads with data and engineering instinct. You are energized by building from scratch, comfortable working across systems, and sharp enough to surface intelligence from complex datasets. Comp expertise is a plus — but curiosity about how compensation works and why it matters will take you far here. You will report to the Head of Global Rewards and partner closely with Talent, Finance, and Legal. This role sits within Total Rewards and will develop broad exposure to the full portfolio — including benefits and wellness programs — over time. Success looks like: a live compensation data environment that integrates all of Quince’s people systems, an automated benchmarking process that surfaces market trends in real time, and infrastructure that scales with the company’s global growth.

Requirements

Demonstrated experience actively building with AI tools — not just using AI-powered products, but prompting, scripting, or constructing workflows with LLMs or AI APIs
Experience in compensation, total rewards, or people analytics — or a demonstrated curiosity about how compensation works and a track record of picking up new domains quickly
Strong proficiency in data tools and scripting (Python, SQL, or similar) to build automated pipelines, custom integrations, and analytical tooling
Proven ability to work with large, complex datasets and translate findings into clear, actionable outputs for non-technical stakeholders
Experience working with HRIS, ATS, or people systems (e.g., Rippling, Greenhouse, Pave, Radford, or equivalents)
Comfort operating in ambiguity and building processes where few or none exist
Clear communication skills; able to make complex data legible to business partners across Finance, Legal, and People

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with global compensation frameworks and multi-geography pay structures
Experience with equity compensation administration, including grant approval workflows
Background in data engineering, BI tooling, or building internal dashboards
Prior experience in a high-growth technology or e-commerce company
Experience scoping or implementing agentic AI workflows in an HR or People context

Responsibilities

Architect and build custom tooling that integrates Rippling, Greenhouse, Pave, and Radford into a unified, live data environment
Design and deploy Quince’s automated benchmarking and comp structure process, including real-time market data scraping, monitoring pipelines, and trend surfacing
Build and maintain AI-powered workflows that automate manual compensation processes and surface actionable intelligence to stakeholders
Support the annual compensation review cycle, including data modeling, system administration, and manager-facing deliverables
Own the monthly equity grant approval motion, partnering with Finance and Legal to execute on time and in compliance
Collaborate with the Talent team to scope, build, or implement an agentic offer evaluation tool that surfaces comp recommendations in real time
Analyze compensation data across all employee types and geographies to identify trends, surface anomalies, and inform decisions
Develop familiarity with Quince’s broader Total Rewards portfolio — including benefits and wellness programs — to support holistic comp philosophy and employee-facing communications
Partner with the Head of Global Rewards on global comp strategy, job architecture, and leveling
