Employee Experience & Events Manager

Pulley's mission is to make it easier for anyone to start a company. We believe that more startups should exist and that founder-led companies are more successful in the long term. With Pulley's cap table management tools, companies can better understand and optimize their equity for the long term. Starting a company is hard enough. Managing equity shouldn't be.

We're a high-performing team looking for passionate, execution-focused, self-starters to help us build the next generation of equity and business management tools for founders in an AI-native world. Pulley is growing quickly with over 4,000 customers including startups like Linear, Runway, Fathom, and Roam.

About the role : We're looking for an Employee Experience & Events Manager who will own the design and execution of experiences that help Pulley's team feel connected, valued, and inspired. This role is equal parts strategist and operator : you'll own our global employee experience roadmap, from onboarding to company-wide events to everyday engagement programs.

At Pulley, we're a fully remote team, so building connection and belonging is both a challenge and an opportunity. You'll design innovative experiences that bring employees together, strengthen our culture, and create an environment where people can do their best work. From curating company offsites to shaping onboarding journeys to driving engagement initiatives, you'll play a central role in making Pulley a place where talented people thrive.

What you'll do :

  • Own the strategy & execution of company events and offsites (in person, virtual, hybrid) including logistics, vendor management, budget, travel, accommodations, programming, run-of-show, and post-event feedback & metrics.
  • Design and lead employee engagement initiatives (recognition programs, cultural rituals, connection opportunities) that scale across a remote-first team.
  • Collaborate with the People team to design, implement, and iterate on Pulley's onboarding programs for new team members to ensure a smooth, welcoming, and effective ramp.
  • Partner with senior leadership, People, Communications, and other stakeholders to make sure our internal experience aligns with company goals and culture.
  • Build scalable systems / processes and documentation around events, offsites, and onboarding (e.g. standard templates, checklists, tools) for operational excellence.
  • Manage external partners and vendors (event planners, facilitators, venues, etc.) to deliver world-class experiences.
  • Measure and report on engagement metrics : event ROI, feedback surveys, and use data to evolve programs.
  • Support internal communications around EX events and programs (pre-event promotion, post-event follow up, storytelling).
  • Serve as a culture champion, continuously innovating on how we connect, engage, and celebrate across the company.

What you bring :

  • 3-6+ years experience in employee experience, events, engagement, or similar roles ideally in fast-growing remote or hybrid environments.
  • Demonstrated track record of planning & executing both large offsites / events (100-300+ people), multi-day offsites, and smaller engagement programs.
  • Strong project management, logistics, vendor negotiation, and budget management skills.
  • Comfort being highly hands-on and tactical - you're equally at ease in strategic planning meetings and troubleshooting day-to-day logistics.
  • Excellent communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to inspire and influence at all levels.
  • Comfort managing ambiguity and designing programs from scratch.
  • Creative, resourceful, and passionate about building meaningful, memorable experiences for employees.
  • Nice to have :

  • Experience with remote / hybrid / virtual event platforms and associated tools.
  • Experience scaling onboarding programs and EX functions.
  • Multimedia or creative skills (video, design, content) to help amplify events and engagement.
  • Prior experience working in a fast-scaling startup environment.
  • Why work at Pulley?

  • We've moved beyond early-stage uncertainty - Our product has traction and we're building on a solid foundation, but we're still early enough in our journey where your work will directly shape the company's trajectory as we scale.
  • Make it easier for anyone to start a company - Founders turn bold ideas into reality - building things that might not exist otherwise. Starting a company is hard enough. Managing equity shouldn't be. Pulley exists to make equity management simpler, smarter, and more accessible for founders from day one.
  • Work with a high-performing and passionate team - We value the concept of stunning colleagues and we're thoughtful about creating a team that is excited about building a great company together. Here are our operating principles :
  • Principles over playbooks - Understand why strategies succeed or fail by asking questions. When you know the 'why', you can adapt, innovate, and find new paths to success.
  • Momentum over speed - Find the best path to deliver value. Build momentum to balance the short term wins vs longer term success.Good taste over data - Take bold bets and trust your instincts to find the unlikely bet.Ideas over egos - Let the best idea win, no matter where it comes from. Cultivate an environment where everyone feels empowered to speak up.Gladiator over spectator - Execute; don't just critique or ideate. You're the one putting in the work, sweating the details, and driving for results.Conviction over consensus - Have the courage to back your ideas strongly, even when they defy the status quo. Disagree and commit.Proactive over passive - Drive your own clarity and pull for context. Ask questions, dig deeper, and grasp the full picture.
  • Benefits :

  • Competitive salary and equity
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance
  • Unlimited PTO + Winter holiday break
  • Parental leave
  • Generous stipends for WFH, learning, wellness, and AI tools
  • 401(k) match (US) / Pension match (Canada)
  • Annual Salary Range : $95,000$135,000 USD

    The range above reflects the typical salary range for this role. The final offer will depend on factors such as your experience, interview performance, level, and other considerations assessed during the hiring process.
