About Gusto
At Gusto, we're on a mission to grow the small business economy. We handle the hard stuff — payroll, health insurance, 401(k)s, and HR — so owners can focus on their craft and their customers. With teams in Denver, San Francisco, and New York, we support more than 500,000 small businesses nationwide and are building a workplace that reflects the people we serve.
All full-time employees receive competitive base pay, benefits, and equity (RSUs) — because everyone who helps build Gusto should share in its success. Offer amounts are determined by role, level, and location. Learn more about our Total Rewards philosophy.
AI is a fundamental part of how work gets done at Gusto. We expect all team members to actively engage with AI tools relevant to their role and grow their fluency as the technology evolves. AI experience requirements vary by role and will be assessed during the interview process.
About the Role:
Gusto is becoming an AI-native company, and that only works if our data governance keeps pace. As the Data Governance TPM, you'll own the definition and delivery of that program across Data Platforms, R&D, Legal & Compliance, Security, AIT, and Risk. You'll stand up new controls, harden the data flows that feed our models, and make sure every workstream meets our regulatory, audit, and business bar. You'll drive the timelines, manage the dependencies, head off the risk, and use AI plugins to do the work itself, so governance becomes something that helps Gusto move faster instead of slowing it down.
About the Team:
The TPM organization is part of our AIT, Risk, and Security team. We deliver the cross-functional work that lets Gusto securely accelerate its AI and platform modernization. The Data Governance program sits right at the intersection of security, compliance, and platform engineering, and it's foundational to how Gusto scales its AI ambitions responsibly. This is one of the most strategic programs on the team, and you'll lead it across a complex, fast-moving group of stakeholders.
Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:
Set the strategy and the roadmap
Run the programs and the change
Manage stakeholders and vendors

Our cash compensation amount for this role is targeted at $151,580-180,000 in Denver. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.
Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role). The same office expectations apply to all Symmetry roles, Gusto's subsidiary, whose physical office is in Scottsdale.
Note: The San Francisco office expectations encompass both the San Francisco and San Jose metro areas.
When approved to work from a location other than a Gusto office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required. This includes non-office days for hybrid employees.
Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for small businesses, you will find a home at Gusto.
