About The Position

WorkOS is seeking an Employee Programs Lead to join their San Francisco office. This role will be responsible for the end-to-end ownership of new hire onboarding, designing and implementing programs to accelerate productivity and understanding of company processes. The lead will also design and facilitate in-person programming for both SF-based and remote employees, develop lightweight tracking tools, and partner with leadership to create scalable training programs that support company growth. The position focuses on building training for core competencies, managing onboarding cohorts, and developing manager and employee upskilling programs. A key aspect of the role involves utilizing AI-forward, no-code tools to automate onboarding content distribution and progress tracking.

Requirements

• Care deeply about creating memorable employee experiences
• Think in systems and continuously improve programs based on feedback

• Measure onboarding effectiveness (time to productivity, ramp feedback, manager input) and iterate each cohort
• Collaborate with our operations team to contribute content and programming for company-wide offsites
• Design and facilitate a new manager training program covering core management skills and how management works here specifically
• Own personal growth and upskilling programs for employees who need targeted skill development: identify gaps, build or source training, track progress
• Partner with managers and leadership to spot where upskilling closes a real performance or capability gap
• Confidently facilitate large-group sessions, comfortable running a room for onboarding cohorts, manager training, or team onsites, not just designing the content
• Use AI-forward, no-code tools to build lightweight internal tools that track ramp progress and distribute onboarding content automatically, reducing manual, one-off work
