Job Level
About the role
- The mission of this role is to mature & scale our people philosophy and execution, in partnership with our Founder/CEO and executive leadership team, to set up Loyal for success as we move towards commercial launch of our first longevity drug.
- Building systems to scale and reinforce high performance and culture standards.
- Hiring, leveling, performance management, compensation, equity, and feedback. Be the steward of Loyal’s culture in moments that matter most: rapid growth, conflict, failure, and change.
- Be a thought partner to leadership.
- Act as a people business partner to support team leaders in people management.
- Create feedback loops that surface problems quickly and enable course correction at both individual and organizational levels.
- Care deeply about the individual, without losing the organization: design policies and structures that both maximize Loyal’s probability of success and support our team individually.
- Own the full Loyal team member lifecycle: from recruiting and onboarding to development, performance, and exits.
- Operations: employment law, compliance, and risk handled well without over-bureaucracy.
Requirements
- You have previously been a People leader at a scale-up company, perhaps as the leader or the leader’s right hand.
- You may have previously been at a deep tech, healthcare, or biotech company
- You are a doer not a manager: you like building and are excited to stay deep in IC work in addition to managing a small team.

- You communicate clearly and concisely.
- You spike on internal communications and can give casual, clear, and compelling company-wide presentations.
- Deep understanding of compensation, performance management, and organizational design.
- You have helped a company cross a major inflection point (e.g., pre- to post-commercialization, or research-heavy to product-driven).
- You can operate with incomplete information and still move decisively.
Benefits
