With better communication, more insights, and less “noise”, we are modernizing what it means for businesses and their employees to truly feel safe.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Head of Talent to build and scale our recruiting and people function from the ground up. As our dedicated talent leader, you’ll be the architect of how we grow—owning end-to-end recruiting while simultaneously laying the foundation for people operations that will serve us well beyond 100 employees. This isn’t just about filling seats; it’s about shaping who we become as a company.

You’ll split your time roughly 2 / 3 on talent acquisition (building pipelines, closing candidates, and partnering with hiring managers) and 1 / 3 on expanding the people operations infrastructure that we’ll need to scale. Think : onboarding that doesn’t feel chaotic, performance frameworks that actually drive growth, and an employee experience that makes people excited to join and stay.

You’ll report directly to leadership and have significant autonomy to define what great looks like as we scale from 50 people.
