Role
Who you are
- 5+ years of experience in compensation and benefits, with demonstrated specialist-level depth in both areas, ideally in a high-growth tech environment
- Deep knowledge of US benefits plan design, administration, and compliance, including open enrollment, ACA, COBRA, ERISA, and required filings, with creative, forward-thinking approaches to benefits solutions
- Strong understanding of compensation practices, including market benchmarking, pay equity analysis, leveling, and managing compensation cycles and processes end to end
- Proven ability to design employee communications, resources, and trainings that make complex topics clear and engaging, with a strong employee experience lens
- Exceptional attention to detail; you catch what others miss and take pride in accuracy across data, filings, and program execution
- Strong cross-functional collaboration and communication skills, with experience partnering with Finance, Talent, HR Business Partners, Internal Comms on shared programs and priorities
- UX-oriented; you care how policies feel, not just how they function
- Comfortable balancing compliance rigor with startup speed
- Hands-on with AI tools and motivated to embed automation into daily workflows
- Experience working with multiple external vendors and knowing how to manage those relationships and agreements effectively
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Senior Benefits & Compensation Manager to join the People team as a key individual contributor, reporting to the Director of People Rewards, Operations & Systems
- In this role, you’ll own two of the most consequential areas of the employee experience — compensation and benefits, designing and managing programs that are equitable, competitive, and distinctly Suno
- You’ll bring deep expertise, creative thinking, and a sharp eye for detail to everything from open enrollment to compensation cycle execution, all while keeping the employee experience front and center
- Own end-to-end compensation cycle execution, including data maintenance and updates, annual cycle changes, market benchmarking, and championing pay equity across the organization
- Lead and manage Suno’s benefits programs, including open enrollment, new hire and mid-year changes, broker relationship management, and benefit plan administration and renewals
- Manage benefit audits and required filings (e.g., ACA, 5500), handling them directly or in close partnership with brokers and external advisors to ensure accuracy and timeliness
- Design and deliver candidate and employee-facing communications, resources, and training for compensation and benefits programs, translating complex information into clear, accessible content with an employee experience lens
- Partner closely with Finance, the Talent team, and HR Business Partners to support headcount planning, leveling, performance management cycles, and compensation-related decision-making
- Support talent planning and management processes as the scope evolves, including leveling frameworks, performance management resources, and related compensation infrastructure
Our take
Suno is a company leveraging AI for music creation, attempting to make it accessible to everyone, regardless of their musical background. The platform allows users to generate complete songs by inputting text prompts, breaking down the barriers that traditionally separate amateurs from professional musicians.
Unlike other AI music tools, Suno focuses on ease-of-use, enabling even those with no music theory knowledge to produce professional-sounding songs. This approach has already attracted a diverse user base, including everyday people and GRAMMY-winning artists.
Whether the vision sits comfortably with the wider music community is another matter. For many, AI-generated music still raises ethical questions around ownership and the value of human artistry. But with investors continuing to back Suno with hundreds of millions of dollars, it's clear they believe AI music is here to stay.
