What You Bring

We’re looking for a true partner on this journey, someone who’s ready to be part of an exciting, fast-moving, and sometimes frustrating process, where we all grow together.

This role is about mindset as much as experience- we need the right person, not necessarily the "right" profile. If you believe you have the right skills, even if your background doesn’t match every requirement exactly, we’d love to hear why you’re the right fit.

That said, the ideal candidate will bring:

• 7+ years of HR experience, preferably in fast-paced, growing companies.
• A business-oriented approach, you understand how HR connects to the company’s success, are familiar with business data, terminology, and key metrics (even at a high level).
• A data-driven mindset, using insights to improve HR processes and decision-making.
• Experience with HR systems like Hibob and Trinet, with a tech-savvy approach to automation.
• A creative thinker, able to find new, unconventional solutions and improve processes beyond standard HR playbooks.
• Experience with AI tools, you’ve explored or implemented AI-driven solutions to enhance HR operations, productivity, or decision-making.
• The ability to create meaningful relationships, you communicate effectively and build trust across all levels of the organization.
• A culture enabler, you have a strong understanding of group dynamics and how to foster an environment where people thrive.
• A productive and efficiency-driven mindset, you think in terms of impact, optimization, and scaling rather than just maintaining processes.
• Comfort with change and adaptability, things move fast, and being able to embrace change, pivot, and find solutions in an evolving environment is key.
• Ability to work US hours as needed, ensuring alignment with our global team.
• Previous experience in roles like product, sales, or BI is an advantage, bringing a deeper understanding of business needs.
