About the role
- Coach, mentor, and provide timely feedback to Chainguardians, helping them grow and thrive.
- Guide people leaders through performance management (think: quarterly/annual reviews, continuous feedback, and clear growth paths).
- Deliver practical, real-talk training to managers on People policies, talent development, and all the quirky things that pop up in a scaling start-up.
- Collaborate with the broader People and Talent teams to deliver programs that attract, retain and engage talent.
- Investigate and resolve employee relations concerns thoughtfully and swiftly, always protecting trust and psychological safety.
- Foster an inclusive work culture (because representation, belonging, and good vibes matter).
- Collaborate with leaders on promotion processes, compensation cycles, and talent planning—making sure every Chainguardian feels seen and valued.
- Interpret and apply People policies with consistency and common sense, keeping us compliant wherever our Chainguardians sit.
- Use data, not guesswork—track, report, and analyze People metrics to inform decisions and drive better outcomes.
- Bring fresh ideas to People programs and never shy away from challenging the status quo.
Requirements
- 6+ years of progressive HR/People experience, including at least 2–4 years in a true Business Partner role (supporting managers/leaders directly).
- Sound judgment, able to assess risk while moving the business forward.
- Hands-on experience with performance management, employee relations, and People analytics/reporting in high-growth, high-change environments.
- Project management and change management skills; you run programs (not just meetings).
- Adaptability and resilience—you stay steady under pressure and bring creativity to challenges.
- Experience operating in a tech start-up (bonus points for scaling global teams).
- Influence and strategic problem-solving chops; you’re comfortable having tough conversations and shaping solutions.
- Relationship-building superpowers—people trust you, and you earn it.
- Strong working knowledge of employment laws and regulations across multiple states.
- Communicates with clarity and empathy across all formats—written, verbal, or digital.
- Brings analytical rigor and pragmatism—decisions are grounded in data as well as context.
