You’ll bring clarity to structure, cadence to leadership, and discipline to how we scale—all while championing a culture grounded in performance, inclusion, and purpose.

- Deep expertise in org design, leadership development, performance management, and total rewards
- Proven success leading cross-functional teams across the breadth of HR
- A systems mindset: able to build structure and clarity without unnecessary process
- Thrive in regulated or complex environments—ideally with exposure to dual-use tech, aerospace, defense, or adjacent industries
