Make Your Mark on a Company’s Growth Story

This is not your average HR role. We're looking for a strategic, entrepreneurial HR leader ready to build a high-performing global team from the ground up. If you thrive in fast-paced environments, want ownership of your function, and are excited by the rare opportunity to influence company culture and structure from day one—this is your moment.


As the Talent & HR Manager, you’ll report directly to executive leadership and serve as a trusted advisor and hands-on builder. You'll lead talent acquisition, workforce planning, and HR operations with the support of an agile, innovation-driven team.


What You’ll Own

  • Build a World-Class Team: Lead domestic and global recruitment efforts, from sourcing to offer, attracting top talent across key business units.
  • Drive Strategy with Leadership: Collaborate directly with executives to align people strategy with business objectives.
  • Scale Rapidly: Forecast headcount, optimize sourcing tools and ATS systems, and construct efficient, scalable hiring processes.
  • Mentor & Lead: Guide internal recruiting teams and create development plans that help them grow with the organization.
  • Be a Cultural Architect: Shape and champion a culture centered around excellence, accountability, and innovation.


You’re a Fit If You Have:

  • 10+ years of HR, recruitment, and people leadership experience
  • A track record of hiring both domestically and internationally
  • Experience in high-tech, telecom, aerospace, or similarly fast-paced industries
  • Fluency in ATS platforms, job boards, compensation benchmarking, and U.S. labor laws
  • Strong leadership presence with the ability to operate at both the strategic and tactical level
  • A Bachelor’s degree (required); advanced degree or certifications (PHR, SHRM-CP, etc.) strongly preferred
  • U.S. residency and the ability to travel occasionally


Why Join?

  • Ownership Mentality: Equity, autonomy, and direct input into a company’s growth story.
  • High Visibility: Regular interaction with C-suite leaders and influence across business units.
  • Career Elevation: Set the foundation for an HR department that scales globally.
