Reporting to the Director, P&C US, this role is equal parts generalist and specialist: it covers the full breadth of People & Culture (talent strategy, employee relations, payroll and benefits, organization design, and performance) with a working understanding of the culture, pressures, and talent needs of a technical development organization. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role for someone who wants to shape how a fast-growing company scales its people practices, not just administer them.

Employee Relations & Compliance: Manage employee relations issues with sound judgment, discretion, and urgency. Ensure compliance with employment law across jurisdictions as the company expands into new markets and regions. Partner with Legal on complex ER matters, investigations, and policy development.
Compensation & Total Rewards: Partner with Total Rewards on compensation benchmarking, equity refreshes, and offer construction for competitive technical talent markets. Support annual comp cycles, bonus planning, and pay equity analysis.

Business acumen: able to speak credibly with technical leaders about their org, not just P&C process. Strong employee relations judgment and experience handling sensitive matters independently. Data fluency: pulls insights from HRIS and people analytics to tell a story and drive decisions. Exceptional communication skills; flexes between hands‑on tactical work and executive-level strategic conversations.
Preferred:
  • Experience supporting a data center, infrastructure, construction, or engineering development organization.
  • Familiarity with technical career ladders and leveling frameworks.
  • Experience at a company that scaled headcount significantly within 12–24 months.
  • You will thrive in this role if you
  • Are energized by ambiguity rather than paralyzed by it.
  • Default to “how do we solve this today and scale it tomorrow” over waiting for the perfect process.
  • Build trust with engineers and developers who may be skeptical of P&C until you prove your value.
  • Have a bias toward action and are comfortable with imperfect, iterative solutions.
