About Cyera
Come join the company building the security operating model for the age of AI. AI has changed how data is used — and security must change with it. Cyera's mission is to empower businesses to accelerate AI Adoption by defining a holistic approach to securing AI - from data to access to model. Instead of perimeter controls and static policies, Cyera provides a unified control plane that understands relationships between data, access, and behaviors across humans, systems, and AI. Backed by the world’s leading investors and working with a large and growing list of Fortune 1000 companies, we are looking for world-class talent to join us as we usher in the new era of data and AI security.
We are looking for a Compensation Manager to join our Global Total Rewards team and help build and run the compensation programs that support Cyera's rapid, global growth. You will own core compensation processes end to end, with a strong focus on our US workforce (the majority of our go-to-market organization), while partnering closely with HRBPs, Finance, and Legal across all regions. This is a hands-on role for someone who can move fluidly between strategic design work and detailed execution, in a fast-changing, high-growth environment.

Advise HRBPs and people managers on offers, promotions, internal equity, and compensation exceptions, ensuring consistency and compliance with internal guidelines.
Ensure compliance with US and international pay transparency and compensation-related regulations (e.g., state pay transparency laws, Il E), partnering with Legal as needed.
Partner with HRIS to ensure compensation data integrity in HiBob and related systems, and build/maintain reporting and analytics to support executive and board-level decision-making.
Support ad hoc compensation modeling and analysis for workforce planning, new market entry, M&A, and executive compensation decisions.
