People and Talent Business Partner

QSIC•Dallas, TX

About The Position

QSIC is an Audio + AI company redefining what in-store means for retailers and brands worldwide. We use intelligent audio to drive real, measurable commercial outcomes — and we move fast. We're building something genuinely new, and the people behind it matter enormously to us. We're now looking for our second People hire. Not a number. Not a backfill. A pivotal role that shapes what QSIC feels like to work at as we scale. You'll be the on-the-ground HR presence for our US teams — a trusted partner to senior leaders, a hands-on operator, and a builder of the infrastructure that makes QSIC a great place to work. Reporting to the Head of People located in Australia, you'll own the full employee experience for your client groups: from that first conversation with a candidate, through onboarding, performance, development and everything in between. This is not a role where you maintain what already exists. Most of what you'll build doesn't exist yet.

Requirements

Around 5 years of HR generalist or HRBP experience — ideally a mix of operational HR and business partnering.
Real experience building HR processes from scratch in a scaling or start-up environment.
Solid knowledge of US employment law and benefits administration (health plans, 401(k), leave compliance).
A track record running full-cycle recruitment across different functions.
Confidence as a trusted advisor to senior leaders — you say what needs to be said, clearly and respectfully.
Comfort with ambiguity, and genuine energy for a role with real ownership.

Nice To Haves

Experience in a global, distributed company.
Familiarity with HRIS platforms and people data.

Responsibilities

Business Partnership: Day-to-day HR partner to senior US leaders — coaching, guidance, and the honest conversations that matter. Support on performance, employee relations, and workforce planning. Translate global people strategy into local action, with real judgment and context.
Talent and Recruitment: End-to-end recruitment for your US client groups — briefing, sourcing, assessing, closing. Partner with hiring managers to find and land the right people, not just the available ones. Help build an employer brand that makes talented people want to work here.
People Operations: Own US benefits administration: health, dental, vision, 401(k), leave programs, vendor relationships, renewals, and compliance. Handle the day-to-day that keeps things running: contracts, onboarding, offboarding, employment verifications, PEO administration.
Programs and Projects: Design and deliver onboarding and offboarding experiences people actually remember positively. Partner on global cyclical programs: compensation reviews, engagement surveys, performance cycles. Turn informal processes into something consistent, scalable, and useful. Support new market expansion from a people and operations perspective.
