Onboarding Buddy Using BambooHR

Pair every new hire with a buddy, automatically. No spreadsheet required.

Top brands trust Pyn

Pyn runs your onboarding buddy program automatically, so every new hire gets a buddy without HR chasing it each time. Managers are prompted to pick a buddy, the chosen person is notified with the context they need, and repeat buddies are flagged so the load spreads fairly. No spreadsheet required.

Because Pyn connects to BambooHR, it already knows the moment someone starts, gets promoted, changes team, or moves on — there's no list to upload and no one to remind. From there every message is personalized by role, team, and location, delivered where people already work — and nothing slips.

The payoff is faster ramp and a warmer welcome, especially for remote hires. Set it up once and it runs for every hire, and the same pairing works for role changes and returns from leave.

BambooHR knows when someone starts, gets promoted, changes teams, or hits their anniversary. Pyn uses that data to:

  • Send timely messages to the right person - through Slack, email, or Teams.
  • Send polls and forms - like probation checks or onboarding buddy selection.
  • Automate integrations - like adding people to a Calendar invite or Slack group.
  • Set your HR Calendar - to manage salary reviews, holidays or company events.

No manual emails. No spreadsheets. No one has to remember.

Why connect Pyn and BambooHR?

Automate the repetitive stuff. New hire starting Monday? Pyn sends the welcome sequence, nudges the manager, loops in IT, and assigns a buddy. You choose which BambooHR fields to import, and Pyn can trigger off any of them.

Make messages feel personal. Pyn tailors content by department, location, and role — so an engineer in Sydney and a marketer in New York get different onboarding experiences. Messages come from their actual manager, not a system notification.

Cover the whole lifecycle. Onboarding is just the start. Pyn also handles things like promotions, anniversaries, parental leave returns, and offboarding (or any other moment driven by a change in BambooHR).

Keep managers in the loop. When something important happens for someone on their team, like a new joiner arriving, Pyn lets the manager know right away. It sends prep reminders, check-in prompts, and conversation starters through Slack, Teams, or email, wherever they already work.
