Why We’re Hiring This Role:

• We're scaling fast, and how we develop, reward, and support our people needs to keep pace with the business

• We're ready for a dedicated People leader, reporting to the CEO, to own everything post-hire: performance, comp, culture, L&D, and HR operations (Talent Acquisition is a separate function you'll partner with)

• Most of this doesn't exist yet. You'll build it from scratch, not inherit it

What You’ll Do:

• 30 Day:

  • Meet leadership, managers, and employees across the company; audit current programs, systems, and compliance; establish your operating rhythm with the CEO and Head of Talent

• 60 Day:

  • Deliver a diagnosis of the People function and a prioritized 12-month roadmap; ship quick wins on the most urgent gaps; stand up baseline people metrics the exec team can rely on

• 90 Day:

  • Launch the first major program from your roadmap (performance cycle or comp bands); put manager development in motion; operate as a trusted thought partner to the leadership team

Who You Are:

• 8+ years in People/HR, including leading the function at a high-growth tech company

• A builder: you've created performance, comp, and culture programs from scratch, not just run inherited ones

• Strong judgment on hard calls: employee relations, managing out, restructures. Direct, kind, and decisive

• Data-driven: you build and defend people metrics with an executive team

• Low ego, high ownership: comfortable being hands-on while building the team underneath you

How We Work:

• Build something worthy of love

  • Craft matters. We aim to build products and experiences customers genuinely love, not just tolerate.

• Commit and follow through

  • We finish what we start and build trust by being people others can count on.

• Why not today?

  • We value urgency and momentum. The fastest path to customer value usually wins.

• Seek raw input

  • We go directly to customers, data, and teammates instead of relying on summaries or assumptions.

• It’s our problem

  • We operate as one team. We share credit, own mistakes together, and support each other when things get hard.

• Be direct and kind

  • We give feedback clearly, respectfully, and without delay.

Why Vapi:

• Generational impact: Build the human interface for every business

• Ownership culture: Many of us are previous founders

• Kind team: The founders, Jordan and Nikhil, are Canadians

• Tier-1 Investors: YC, KP seed, Bessemer Series A

What We Offer:

• Real stake: We offer a competitive salary and excellent equity ownership

• Comprehensive health coverage: medical, dental, and vision plans

• Team love: We love hanging out, and we do quarterly off-sites

• Flexible time off: take what you need

• More: catered meals, transportation, gym, and a $10k annual L&D budget
