Director of Compensation Strategy

About this role

Replit is the agentic software creation platform that enables anyone to build applications using natural language. With millions of users worldwide, Replit is democratizing software development by removing traditional barriers to application creation.

ROLE SUMMARY

Replit is the world's most widely used AI coding platform, and as we scale, we're rebuilding how compensation works internally from the ground up. This role owns that. You'll go beyond traditional comp management to architect the systems, data infrastructure, and AI-enabled workflows that make fast, consistent, and high-quality compensation decisions possible at scale.

You will serve as the architect of our compensation engine: translating compensation philosophy into scalable systems, and utilizing AI to improve speed, accuracy, and transparency.

You will partner closely with People Business Partners, Recruiting, Finance, People Operations, and the Data team to embed compensation directly into company workflows, eliminating manual processes and reducing reliance on comp as a service layer.

You will shape how we attract, reward, and retain top talent, while building infrastructure that scales with the business.

• Evolve our compensation philosophy across cash and equity; design and maintain salary bands, leveling frameworks, and equity structures

• Ensure market competitiveness while partnering with Finance on cost and workforce planning

• Operate compensation planning cycles and generate first-pass recommendations for comp decisions

• Build dashboards and analytical frameworks covering market competitiveness, internal equity, retention risk, and workforce cost

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
