Job Description: Hey LinkedIn! I'm so excited about this role!!!! This is aimed at the wonderful world of HR.
Over the past few years, this remote-first SaaS scale-up has quietly grown into a global team spanning 10+ countries. The product’s flying. The team is scaling. But behind the scenes? People Operations is still a patchwork of good intentions, scrappy systems, and too many manual workarounds.....
That’s where you come in.
This is a build-it-all role. No red tape. No legacy baggage. Just a smart, supportive team that’s ready for someone to take the reins and create structure that scales.
We need to find the right person for the job. Someone tech-savvy, process driven, start-up mentality who is extremely hands on but also wants to have FUN.
What you’ll be doing:
Own and build global People Ops from the ground up - think onboarding, offboarding, policies, promotions, and more
Overhaul global payroll, EORs and compliance processes - and choose the tools that work
Bring order to chaos: design scalable workflows and automate wherever possible
Launch a modern HR intranet and help us go fully self-serve
Lead, coach and develop a small (but mighty) People Ops team
Work cross-functionally with Finance, Legal, IT and Leadership to make People Ops feel seamless and intentional
Who you are:
You’ve scaled People Ops in a SaaS/tech company (ideally 100–500 people)
You think like a builder, act like an operator, and love fixing broken systems
You’ve worked across multiple time zones and cultures, and know the realities of remote, global scale-ups
You’re tech-savvy, data-literate, and allergic to old-school HR
You don’t need a playbook - you’re the one who writes it
Why now?
This is a rare moment - a real blank slate with full support from the business to build something exceptional. You’ll get autonomy, budget, smart cross-functional partners, and the space to make a lasting impact.
