THE OPPORTUNITY

Unknown Worlds is seeking a hands-on HR Manager to support our globally distributed team. This is a highly independent role where you will own HR operations from beginning to end - from onboarding and benefits support to employee relations, manager coaching, and global compliance. The right candidate will be comfortable rolling up their sleeves on both the day-to-day and the complex, switching easily between administrative tasks and sensitive ER matters.

You will support employees across the U.S. and internationally, requiring strong prioritization, time management, and comfort working with minimal oversight in a flexible schedule. This role is critical to ensuring smooth HR operations, building manager capability, and embedding scalable people practices in a dynamic, startup-like environment.

This is a remote position on a globally distributed team.


RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Own and execute the full cycle of HR operations - from onboarding and engagement to development and offboarding - ensuring every employee has a seamless experience.
  • Support and coach managers in navigating employee challenges, giving feedback, and fostering effective teams (many of whom are new to structured HR processes).
  • Own HR processes across compensation, benefits, compliance, and employee relations, serving as the go-to resource for employees and managers.
  • Manage HR system transitions and ongoing administration, ensuring data accuracy, compliance, audit readiness, and timely processing of employee changes.
  • Take ownership of HR projects from planning to execution, ensuring they are delivered efficiently and aligned with company culture and objectives.
  • Partner with Krafton HR (HQ) teams to align policies, programs, and best practices, ensuring consistency while adapting to local/studio needs.
  • Work independently to balance competing priorities and remain accessible to employees across time zones, with minimal oversight.

QUALIFICATIONS

  • 5-7 years of HR experience, ideally in fast-paced, scaling environments.
  • Experience handling employee relations, including across time zones or international contexts.
  • Strong knowledge of U.S. employment law, compliance requirements, and regulatory reporting; exposure to global employment practices is highly desirable.
  • Demonstrated experience in employee relations, compliance, and supporting managers in talent development.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to coach managers.
  • Proven project management skills, with the ability to lead multiple complex initiatives simultaneously and deliver results.
  • Proficiency with HRIS systems such as ADP, Workday, or Deel.
