About Lucid

At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity. In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience.

We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility.

We’re building an HR experience that is responsive, reliable, and rooted in trust—and our Shared Services team plays a critical role in making that happen. This Contract Shared Service Specialist is a key contributor to this mission, serving as the primary Human Resource contact for all North America inquiries and ensuring employees receive clear, timely, and accurate support.

This role acts as a subject matter expert across core topics that touch every aspect of the employee lifecycle—including onboarding, payroll, benefits, compensation, policies, timekeeping, holidays, and offboarding. This role is pivotal for our organization to maintain high standards of data accuracy, documentation, and service delivery. You’ll be part of a collaborative team that values curiosity, continuous improvement, and a commitment to doing what’s right for employees.

In addition to owning onboarding and routine HR transactions, the Specialist provides essential support for compliance, audit, and risk related activities. This includes labor law alignment, tax and location validations, government information requests, and coordination with internal teams such as Internal Audit, Legal, Immigration, and HRIS.
