About the Role

We're looking for our first dedicated Talent Lead to join our growing team and drive talent density across the organization. This isn't your traditional HR role—we need someone who thinks like a growth-oriented operator, combines strategic thinking with hands-on execution, and approaches talent as a competitive advantage rather than an administrative function.

You'll be responsible for building the frameworks and operating systems that ensure we consistently attract, identify, and retain top-tier talent. This role requires someone who can execute recruitment at the highest level while simultaneously establishing the performance management and leveling systems that will scale with our growth.

• Create onboarding experiences that set new hires up for immediate impact and long-term success

Data-Driven Operations

• Implement metrics and analytics to track recruitment efficiency, quality of hire, and long-term performance
