About The Position

We’re looking for a dynamic, detail-oriented HR Business Partner to own the employee lifecycle end-to-end — from sourcing and hiring through onboarding and day-to-day HR support. You’ll be a trusted advisor to managers and leadership on everyday HR decisions and complex people matters, drive full-cycle talent acquisition, and help build a great employee experience across the organization. This is a great fit for someone who thrives on variety, enjoys owning processes end-to-end, and wants real influence over how a growing company builds its people function.

Requirements

  • 4+ years in a similar HR or Talent role within a high-tech or startup environment (required)
  • Proven track record navigating complex stakeholder situations with sound judgment — performance issues, restructures, and other sensitive employee matters
  • Strong background in sourcing and full-cycle talent acquisition
  • Working knowledge of US employment law, including multi-state compliance, benefits, and I-9 requirements
  • Experience using people data (engagement surveys, attrition metrics, performance trends) to shape recommendations and influence leadership decisions
  • A track record of designing and executing people programs end-to-end (e.g., performance cycles, talent reviews, org redesigns) with measurable business outcomes
  • Comfort working across multiple stakeholders — managers, employees, finance/payroll, legal, and leadership
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build trust at every level of the organization
  • A proactive, service-oriented mindset and genuine passion for people and employee experience
  • Agile and adaptable, comfortable with shifting priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong ownership and follow-through, from first step to last
