Human Resources Director

Hey there, HR rockstar! Are you the kind of person who can juggle policies, pep talks, and paperwork without spilling your coffee? Do you believe that HR is about a symbiotic balance of compliance and culture? If you’re ready to build an amazing workplace environment, keep us on the right side of employment law, and be the go-to person for all things people-related, keep reading!

Bonus points if you can check off any of the following, too:

• You can navigate a tough conversation with empathy and finesse (and without sounding like a corporate robot)
• You believe a strong workplace culture is built on trust, transparency, and maybe the occasional well-timed GIF
• You have a talent for making even the driest HR policies sound (almost) exciting

We would love to know more about you—especially if you ticked off any of the above!

About You:

• You’ve been around the HR block, ideally with 5+ years of HR leadership experience
• You have a people-first mindset and genuinely love creating policies and programs that support employees and align with business goals
• You don’t just identify problems, you bring solutions (and maybe even a backup plan)
• You know employment laws, HR best practices, and how to make policies that actually make sense
• You’re constantly looking for better, faster, and more efficient ways of doing things. “This is the way we’ve always done it” is a phrase that is banned from your vocabulary

What you will do:

• Create an environment where employees feel valued, engaged, and excited to come to work (yes, even on Mondays)
• Provide coaching and strategic HR advice that makes our managers look like rockstars
• Keep us legal and compliant at all times.  We love creativity, but not when it comes to employment law.  You’ll keep our policies buttoned-up and audit-proof
• Ensure we attract, retain, and develop top-tier talent who are a perfect fit for our mission and vibe
• Think outside the employee handbook. Find ways to enhance performance, engagement, and professional development
• Foster and promote a corporate environment consistent with our core values: Dare to Care; Be Accountable; Drive Forward Momentum; Hit Heavy, Stay Humble.
• Motivate, influence, and train team members. You are a cheerleader, coach, and key player, all-in-one.
• Other duties and special projects as required. You are a yes-person, willing to help out wherever needed.

Your experience:

• Bachelor's degree in HR or related field is required
• 5+ Years of experience in HR management
• Strong knowledge of hardware & software systems, networks, and application software development
