You ideally will have:

- Knowledge across the full range of HR disciplines, gained in contemporary people cultures: compensation, benefits, rewards, recognition, engagement, recruiting, talent development, operations
- An ability to prioritize and work fluidly in a fast-paced, remote-first tech startup environment, flexing between strategic and tactical/hands-on tasks as needed
