Head of People

Tatango•Plano, TX

About The Position

momoGood is building an AI-native platform designed to unify donors, nonprofits, enterprises, and brands to unlock modern giving, volunteering, and fundraising. Through strategic acquisitions and rapid expansion, we are building a global organization designed to create meaningful impact at scale. As we grow, we are committed to building a company defined by strong values, clear leadership, and a people-first culture. We believe that great companies are built by great people — supported by thoughtful structure, strong systems, and intentional culture. We are seeking a foundational People leader who will help architect and build the HR function from the ground up during a critical phase of growth, integration, and international expansion. The Head of People will lead all aspects of Human Resources and people strategy across momoGood as we integrate multiple acquired businesses and scale globally. This role will partner closely with the CEO and leadership team to define and implement the people foundation of the company across both U.S. and international operations. This is a builder role. The individual in this position will operate as a hands-on leader and individual contributor, personally executing across recruiting, HR operations, systems, compliance, and organizational design while laying the groundwork for a future team. This role requires someone energized by ambiguity, capable of operating in an evolving environment, and motivated to build structure, systems, and culture from the ground up across a globally distributed workforce. This is a hands-on, build-from-scratch role that will initially operate without a dedicated HR team, requiring you to personally execute core HR functions while establishing scalable systems and processes across both U.S. and international employees and contractors. You will create the foundation first, with team growth occurring over time based on business needs and organizational maturity.
