ABOUT THE ROLE
Build the team. Lead the function. Set the standard.

We’re looking for a Head of Talent Acquisition & HR to own, grow, and lead our people function at a fast-moving, mission-driven tech startup. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thrives in autonomy, moves fast, and takes pride in attracting exceptional talent.

You won’t just manage recruiting—you’ll lead it from the front, personally driving full-cycle hiring while simultaneously reinforcing the established systems, standards, and operating rhythm that allows the company to scale with intention. You’ll be the architect of our talent strategy and the steward of a high-performance, values-aligned culture.

This role is ONLY for self-directed operators and confident inspired leaders who see HR as a strategic lever and a people-nurturing responsibility, not an administrative function.
