We’re looking for an HR Manager in Mexico who is passionate about building thoughtful, streamlined, employee lifecycle processes that support the employee experience.

This role is critical to ensuring a safe, compliant, and positive work environment for employees in the field and data factory. You will also play a critical role in creating a highly employee - centric team as Scale continues to grow exponentially.

- Manage the full employee lifecycle across field and corporate employees: onboarding, offboarding, performance management, salary changes, leave of absences, and permissions in compliance with Mexico’s Federal Labor Law
- Provide guidance to managers and employees on workplace issues, performance, policy interpretation, and disciplinary procedures where applicable
- Manage Workers’ Compensation claims from incident reporting through return-to-work coordination, partnering closely with local payroll representatives, legal teams, and insurance providers to ensure compliance and effective case management.
- Collaborate with managers to reinforce robot safety and safe equipment operation practices; includes tracking safety, compliance, and related certifications.
- Maintains compliance with Mexico employment law, including but not limited to manager/employee training, workplace operations, classifications, wage laws, and benefits.
- Provide HR leadership across benefits, compliance, and people programs while fostering strong cross-functional partnerships with Operations, Finance, IT, Legal, Compliance, and other stakeholders to drive efficiencies and simplify workflows.
- Understand the operational boundaries of the on-site Employer of Record (EOR) arrangement – know what belongs to the EOR and where your lane ends, and how to work in collaboration with the EOR
- May manage vendor relationships, including facilities temp agencies, maintenance, and security
- Roll up your sleeves and dive into the high volume of daily operational HR needs and ad hoc projects for the Mexico team
What we’re looking for:
- 5-7 years of HR Generalist or HR Manager experience, with experience supporting both hourly/field and professional/office workforces.
- Exceptionally collaborative and able to advise employees at all levels of the organization
- Strong verbal and written English communication skills
- Highly detail-oriented, stellar organizational skills and able to prioritize effectively
- Knowledge of Mexico employment laws and regulatory requirements
- Knowledge of Mexico benefits and payroll processes
- Strong critical thinking skills and ability to think outside of the box and propose meaningful solutions
- Able to identify gaps and drive operational improvements
- Excellent judgment and discretion, maintaining confidentiality at all times
- Flexible mindset and able to navigate ambiguity with ease
- Action-oriented and able to work independently with minimal supervision
Nice to Have:
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent
- Experience in a distribution center or manufacturing environment
