Operations · Full-time · CA, United States of America
For companies building financial technology and transforming the financial services space, the biggest bottleneck to their growth and innovation is often the underlying banks and infrastructure stack they rely on. We have spent our careers founding and scaling companies like Plaid, Square, SoFi, Blend, and Affirm, and have seen this problem firsthand — builders and developers needing to partner with traditional banks, and creating API and abstraction layers over the patchwork that is the bank, its core, and many other vendors. All of this results in a complex (and often expensive) banking supply chain involving a user, fintech, BaaS middleware provider, bank, core and the Federal Reserve.
At Column, we set out to simplify and fix this. We are a bank and a software company built from the ground up, offering builders and developers technology-forward banking solutions that cut out the hundreds of vendors, middleware providers, and abstraction layers. This means a safer, more transparent, and less costly banking supply chain. Come build with us!
As a member of the People Operations team, you will play a critical role in building and supporting Column’s entire People Ops infrastructure. We are looking for an exceptional People Ops generalist who can help drive key programs and initiatives for Column (e.g., performance management, pulse check feedback survey, onboarding program, and ongoing learning and development) while supporting our underlying HR processes to make sure we ‘keep the trains running.’ Our ideal candidate is someone highly motivated and willing to get their hands dirty across many different tasks and projects to create a best-in-class employee experience. This is a great opportunity for an individual who is early-to-mid career in People Ops and is looking to get exposed to what it takes to build and run a People function at a fast-growing startup, or someone who is looking to transition out of consulting and is passionate about getting exposed to the people-side of running a business.
This position will report directly to the Head of People, and the individual in the role must be willing to work in person in our Presidio-based office in San Francisco (3-4 days/week).

Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail
Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to handle sensitive matters and data with empathy and discretion
Highly self-motivated and skilled at prioritizing within a fast-paced work environment
Scrappy, roll-up-your-sleeves attitude - we thrive because we work harder, are more creative, and have zero ego when it comes to getting our hands dirty to build a business
