About the role

  • Percepta is growing quickly, and what served us as 20 no longer serves us at 80 Perceptrons.
  • You won't inherit a playbook here, but rather, you'll author it.
  • You are someone who inherently has always held imaginative but flexible ideas on what a best in class function could look like.

Responsibilities

  • Turn strong ICs into good managers. Build our first performance management system and manager training from scratch, the frameworks, feedback rhythms, and coaching that help new managers actually manage, and keep the whole team upskilling as we grow.
  • Handle the hard, unscripted stuff: You will be the point of contact and person responsible for building a process for all employee relations, disputes, hard compensation discussions and direct feedback.
  • You're comfortable with ambiguity and reversal, and are okay building something knowing it'll be torn down and rebuilt in six months, without treating that as a problem.
  • You can point to specific systems you designed, not just programs you administered.
  • Build a data-driven, AI-driven people org from the ground up.

Requirements

  • You have strong, specific opinions about culture, performance, and compensation, and a story about a contrarian call you made that turned out right.
  • You are deeply embedded in the tech, startup, and AI space and have informed opinions on how to be best in class and remain competitive in a rapidly changing landscape.
  • You are willing to be in person in our NYC office.

Compensation

  • Handle the hard, unscripted stuff: You will be the point of contact and person responsible for building a process for all employee relations, disputes, hard compensation discussions and direct feedback.

Benefits

  • Build our compensation philosophy and equity framework from scratch, benchmark against the market, and create and shape bands as we scale.
  • You'll write the first version of each, informed by real opinions about what makes a company great to work at (and the discipline to leave out what doesn't fit us).
  • Stand up the headcount, attrition, hiring funnel, and comp dashboards that don't exist yet, so people decisions get made on evidence instead of gut feel, and leadership always has a real-time read on the org's health.
  • You're genuinely fine doing the unglamorous ops work yourself: onboarding, offboarding, benefits, immigration paperwork, etc.
