About the role

Payroll Manager at Finni Health responsible for end-to-end payroll operations across 1,000+ W-2 employees, multi-state compliance, and building AI-enabled payroll automation within a fast-growing healthcare fintech environment.

Responsibilities

  • Own scheduled and off-cycle payroll runs in Rippling for 1,000+ W-2 employees across multiple states - validating timekeeping, compensation changes, garnishments, deductions, and final pay each cycle
  • Perform pre- and post-payroll reviews, variance analysis, and funding validation; reconcile payroll to bank, tax, benefits, retirement-plan, and general-ledger records
  • Administer approved payments to practice owners and other nonemployees, supporting year-end information reporting (Forms 1099)
  • Manage federal, state, and local payroll-tax accounts - registrations, closures, SUI rates, filing frequencies, and authorizations - as we enter new states
  • Oversee filings and payments completed by Rippling, and drive tax notices, amendments, penalties, and credits to documented closure
  • Lead quarter-end and year-end activities (Forms 941 and 940, W-2/W-3, applicable Forms 1099), and serve as the primary escalation point for employee and practice-owner payroll questions
  • Lead recurring insurance reconciliations, matching carrier invoices against enrollments, employee deductions, and employer contributions
  • Own 401(k) reconciliations - deductions, contributions, loan repayments, recordkeeper funding - and support annual testing, Form 5500 preparation, and the independent plan audit
  • Coordinate annual workers' compensation premium audits, preparing payroll exposure by state, location, and classification code
  • Serve as Finni's Rippling system owner - configurations, permissions, reporting, internal controls, role-based access, and audit-ready records
  • Build the payroll knowledge base into the company's single source of truth: policies, state requirements, and standard operating procedures
  • Design and deploy agentic AI workflows that answer routine payroll questions automatically and route sensitive, employee-specific cases for human review
  • Automate recurring work - agency notice triage, reconciliations, audit prep, reporting - so payroll scales without scaling headcount, and track accuracy, timeliness, and open-notice counts to prove it
  • 4+ years of hands-on U.S. payroll experience, including 2+ years independently owning full-cycle, multi-state payroll for 500+ W-2 employees (1,000+ strongly preferred)
  • Deep command of federal, state, and local payroll tax - SUI, wage-and-hour, garnishments, final pay, year-end reporting - with direct experience maintaining state tax accounts, overseeing provider-filed returns, and resolving agency notices
  • Experience with quarter-end and year-end processing, payroll accounting, internal controls, and general-ledger reconciliation
  • Hands-on experience with benefits, 401(k), and workers' compensation reconciliations or audits
  • Rippling or another modern payroll and HRIS platform, plus advanced Excel or Google Sheets and confidence with large payroll datasets
  • Demonstrated use of AI or automation tools to build something that shipped - a knowledge base, workflow, bot, or script that other people actually use
  • Based in the United States or Canada, able to work core U.S. business hours and meet firm payroll deadlines

Qualifications
