From Parafin's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
At Parafin, we’re on a mission to grow small businesses.
Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, but traditional banks often don’t have their backs. We build tech that makes it simple for small businesses to access the financial tools they need through the platforms they already sell on.
We partner with companies like DoorDash, Amazon, Worldpay, and Mindbody to offer fast and flexible funding, spend management, and savings tools to their small business users via a simple integration. Parafin takes on all the complexity of capital markets, underwriting, servicing, compliance, and customer service for our partners.
We’re a tight-knit team of innovators hailing from Stripe, Square, Plaid, Coinbase, Robinhood, CERN, and more — all united by a passion for building tools that help small businesses succeed. Parafin is backed by prominent venture capitalists including GIC, Notable Capital, Redpoint Ventures, Ribbit Capital, and Thrive Capital. Parafin is a Series C company, and we have raised more than $194M in equity and $340M in debt facilities.
Join us in creating a future where every small business has the financial tools they need.
We are looking for an HR Business Partner to join Parafin as the second member of our People team, working directly alongside our Head of People to build and run HR at a fast-growing fintech company. This is an individual-contributor role with broad, independent ownership: you'll split your time between hands-on HR operations - onboarding, leave administration, HRIS data integrity, compliance - and higher-level strategic work, including performance management, employee relations, and compensation planning.
You will operate with significant autonomy and cross-functional influence, and you will be foundational in helping shape how Parafin's people practices scale as the company grows.
Are you a versatile, senior HR generalist who's equally comfortable running payroll-adjacent logistics and coaching a manager through a hard conversation - without needing a team under you to get it done? Do you want outsized ownership over how a People function is built, not just how it's maintained? If so, come join us!
Why This Role
As the second hire on the People team, you won't be slotting into an existing playbook - you'll help to write it. You'll work in close partnership with the Head of People across the full HR remit, owning significant scope independently and shaping outcomes through influence rather than formal authority. As Parafin's People function grows, this role is positioned to grow with it in scope.
