About Edra

Edra is solving one of the hardest problems in enterprise AI: AI models are generic but company processes are specific. We build AI agents that learn how processes actually run, and then run their operations.

We're a Series A startup, backed by Sequoia and other leading VC firms, led by Co-Founders who created and led Forward Deployed AI Engineering at Palantir, and we're growing our team in New York and London. We're a deeply technical team of engineers, AI researchers, and strategists with a high bar for talent and a shared belief that exceptional people are the foundation of everything great we'll build.

The Role

Edra is 30+ people across New York and London, with aggressive hiring plans in both offices. Every one of those people runs through an offer, payroll in one of two countries, equity in one of two tax regimes, benefits, and the compliance layer underneath it all. We've laid the foundation; now we want someone to own it, and to build the version that gets us to 60, 100, and beyond.

You'll own the employee lifecycle end to end in both countries: US and UK payroll, benefits in both regimes, onboarding, and people compliance across two jurisdictions. At most companies, people ops is carved into slices; here you own the whole stack, with real autonomy to deter
