Are you ready to be part of the next chapter in Silicon Valley’s hyper-growth IoT success story? The Role Trackonomy is looking for an experienced payroll professional to provide centralized review, reconciliation, and reporting across our global payroll operations. This is a part-time, highly flexible remote position designed for an experienced payroll professional who enjoys detailed analysis and problem-solving and wants meaningful work without a traditional full-time schedule. Trackonomy has approximately 700 employees globally, with payroll administered locally across multiple countries through internal teams, payroll providers, PEO/EOR partners, and external accounting firms. This role does not process payroll. Instead, you will provide the independent review and reporting layer across those payrolls. Your objective is to help us confidently answer three questions every month: • Did we pay people correctly? • Did we pay the correct employment-related costs? • Can we explain what changed? You will review payroll results, reconcile activity to employee and compensation changes, investigate unusual variances, identify errors and potential overpayments, and work with HR, Finance, local teams, and payroll providers to resolve discrepancies. You will also own our consolidated global payroll reporting, giving HR and Finance a reliable view of payroll costs across countries, entities, and providers. Success in this role means creating a disciplined global payroll review process that catches errors, explains payroll movement, improves controls, and provides leadership with accurate and timely payroll information.
