Global Total Rewards, Manager
San Diego, CA - Hybrid Remote
Who We Are
At Platform Science, we’re working to connect everything that moves.
Founded in 2015, we are an open IoT platform that partners with innovative fleets, application developers, vehicle manufacturers, and equipment providers in the transportation industry to deliver revolutionary solutions to supply chain professionals across the globe.
Our employees are an engaging, diverse group of people who believe in the power of great ideas. We hire people with different experiences and perspectives to build a company culture that fuels growth through innovation.
We value thoughtful actions and empathy for others. We approach challenges with resiliency and creativity, while encouraging transparency because, no matter our backgrounds or responsibilities, we are one team.
About the Role
As the Global Total Rewards Manager, you are the custodian of Platform Science’s compensation integrity. You will manage the day-to-day execution of our global rewards programs across North America, LATAM, and Europe. Your primary objective is to ensure that our $100M+ labor investment is administered with 100% accuracy, providing the foundational data that allows our leadership team to make strategic, high-stakes decisions.
Essential Responsibilities
- Technical Execution: Lead the annual merit, bonus, and incentive cycles. You are responsible for the end-to-end integrity of our Workbooks, ensuring 100% accuracy in formulas, eligibility, and budget allocations before they reach the Finance team.
- Data Stewardship: Maintain our global job architecture and salary ranges within Workday. You will ensure that our data is the "Single Source of Truth" for the entire organization.
- M&A Support: Execute the tactical mapping of compensation for newly acquired teams, ensuring a smooth and error-free transition into Platform Science’s unified "One Team" structure.
- Compliance Oversight: Manage global pay transparency, FLSA, and retirement plan audits (401k/RRSP) to ensure we are 100% compliant in every jurisdiction where we operate.
- Vendor & System Optimization: Act as the point person for all benefit vendors and HRIS compensation modules, streamlining enrollment and resolving administrative bottlenecks independently.
- Precision First: You have an "Accountant’s eye" for detail. You catch errors before they leave your desk, and your work never requires a "re-do" by cross-functional teams.
- Proactive Ownership: You do not wait for a "follow-up." You manage your project timelines aggressively, providing regular "Pulse Reports" to leadership on the status of critical deadlines.
- Analytical Independence: You can take raw data from multiple global sources and independently turn it into clean, actionable insights for the CFO and HR leadership.
Experience
- 7+ years of Global Total Rewards experience, with a focus on core compensation administration and benefits management.
- Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills (pivot tables, complex nested formulas, and data modeling are second nature).
- Previous experience working in a startup environment
- Ability to work independently and partner with internal stakeholders when necessary
- Financial Fluency: Past experience in Accounting or Finance is a significant advantage. You must understand the "math" behind a P&L to manage compensation budgets effectively.
- System Expert: Power-user status in ADP, AON and/or Radford
- Communication: Ability to explain complex benefit or pay structures to employees and managers in a clear, empathetic, yet authoritative manner.
- Certification: CCP or CBP (or progress toward them) is highly desired.
