Onboarding Program Manager

Applied Intuition • Sunnyvale, CA

1d • $130,000 - $170,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

Applied Intuition is looking for an Onboarding Program Manager to own both the strategy and the execution of our global onboarding program. This is a builder role: you will design the vision for how onboarding should work as we scale into new regions and functions, and you will personally run the operational details that make each new hire’s first weeks excellent. You’ll report into the People team and partner closely with Recruiting, People Operations, IT, and business leaders to make onboarding a competitive advantage rather than an afterthought.
You own the program end to end: setting the strategic direction, designing the systems and content, and executing the week-to-week orientation and stakeholder work that brings it to life. The person who thrives here has already built (or substantially rebuilt) a first-in-class onboarding or people program, knows how to translate a company’s Employer Value Proposition (EVP) and values into a new hire’s lived experience, and is comfortable operating in the ambiguity of a fast-growing, global organization.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree and 5+ years of experience in a People or HR-related role.
• Demonstrated experience building or substantially revising a first-in-class onboarding (or comparable people) program, including ownership of both the strategic design and the operational rollout
• A track record of designing programs that explicitly connect to and reinforce an organization’s Employer Value Proposition and culture
• Success managing enterprise-level programs and projects, ideally across multiple regions or business units
• A detail-oriented, data-driven mindset paired with strong presentation and communication skills
• The ability to anticipate change and pivot quickly to protect a great new-hire experience as the business scales
• A proactive approach to problem-solving — you don’t just spot gaps; you fill them with speed and quality

Nice To Haves

• Fluency in Google Apps, Ashby, Workday, Slack, Jira
• PMP or PgMP certification

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end strategy for our global onboarding program — setting the vision, roadmap, and success metrics for how new hires join and ramp at Applied Intuition
• Design onboarding as a first-in-class program: benchmark externally, identify what “great” looks like, and build (or substantially redesign) the resources, milestones, and touchpoints a new hire moves through
• Embed Applied Intuition’s Company Values and Employer Value Proposition into the program, ensuring the onboarding experience is a credible, felt expression of what we promise employees — and partner with the broader People team to extend that thread across the employee lifecycle
• Develop and facilitate weekly company-wide orientation for new hire cohorts at company HQs.
• Support team-specific onboarding programs with technical expertise, partnering with functional leaders to tailor the core program to their needs
• Project-plan and execute changes to the program based on structured feedback from new hires and stakeholders, closing the loop from insight to shipped improvement
• Partner with People Operations, IT, and other enablement teams to ensure every system, account, and touchpoint is ready before a new hire’s first day
• Triage and resolve onboarding-related issues or questions in real time, acting as the front line for a great new-hire experience
