• Proven success leading performance management and growth frameworks in fast-paced, high-growth, start-up environments.
• Ability to manage projects and optimize processes to successful completion.
• Strong communication, facilitation, and program management skills—you know how to get things done and bring others along.
• Ability to thrive in a team environment and comfortable working independently.
• Proficiency in tools like Lattice, 15Five, WorkRamp, or similar systems; familiarity with HRIS platforms such as Gusto, Rippling, or comparable.
• A proactive, resourceful mindset and excitement for building and maintaining programs in a startup environment.
• Passion for people, growth, and building high-trust, high-performance cultures.

Nice To Haves

• Experience building internal academies, leadership training, or career pathing frameworks from scratch.
• Strong facilitation skills—whether it’s running a manager workshop or leading an offsite session.
• Passion for robotics and familiarity with the tech or AI startup world—and a genuine passion for helping innovative teams thrive.

Responsibilities

• Support the creation and administration of our performance review process—designing goal-setting cycles, managing feedback loops, and keeping performance aligned with company objectives.
• Lead OKR planning and tracking across teams, ensuring everyone knows how their work connects to our mission.
• Partner closely with managers to support career pathing, role development, and internal mobility strategies.
• Coordinate and launch learning programs that empower employees to continuously level up—whether they’re just starting out or growing into leadership.
• Create, curate, and share training resources that are engaging, actionable, and built for scale.
• Coordinate coaching, mentorship, and team learning experiences that support our culture of curiosity and growth.
• Assist teams by collaborating with leads on team planning, growth, and team effectiveness.
• Use performance data to recommend improvements and build programs that support high-performing teams.
• Maintain and optimize the systems that support performance feedback, OKR tracking, and team coaching.
