Requirements

What you’ll need

10+ years of progressive experience in People Partnering / HRBP roles, organizational development, or management consulting, with at least 2–3 years at a Director or Principal level.
Proven track record in organizational design (ideally in deeply technical, nimble environments), change management methodologies, and designing scaled organizations.
Deep experience working in high-growth AI, deep-tech, biotech, or highly complex R&D environments. Experience managing the unique dynamics of commercializing highly scientific research is a massive plus.
Demonstrable experience building high-impact frameworks, operational plans, and accountability structures from scratch in an ambiguous, mid-sized company environment (~200-500 employees).
Bachelor’s degree in Business, Organizational Development, HR, or a related field; Master’s/MBA/PhD is a plus but real-world business outcomes matter more to us than credentials.
