About the role
The Head of People oversees three functions: Recruiting, HR, and Events. The role reports to the COO and manages a team of five to start: two operations associates/recruiters, a talent scout, an events lead, and a people operations associate.
This is a building role. Much of the infrastructure you’ll oversee needs to be scaled for an organization twice our current size. People and process management will be your primary responsibility, but during crunch time you’ll need to direct work such as personally running key hiring rounds. The primary responsibilities for this role are managing and guiding the team, scaling the hiring and people systems, overseeing the events calendar, contributing to strategy, and making sure staff are well supported.
This role is fully remote, with the option to work from our Berkeley, California office if you are based in the Bay Area, but we require at least 4 hours of overlap with PST working times. We invite anyone who is interested to apply, regardless of background, experience, or credentials. Please do not include a cover letter, photograph, or headshot of yourself, or any personal information that is not relevant to the role for which you're applying (including marital status, age, identity traits, etc.).
