Employer job description
From Factory's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
About the Role
As Factory scales through hyper-growth off the back of our Series C, we are seeking a Founding HRBP to serve as a trusted partner to leaders across the org. This is a foundational role: you’ll provide hands-on partnership while helping build the HRBP function itself - the frameworks, playbooks, and practices that become its backbone as the company scales.
What you will do and achieve
- Strategic Partnership & Org Effectiveness
- Advise functional leaders on org design, workforce planning, and growth plans as the company scales.
- Own headcount planning and data integrity for your client groups
- Partner with leadership to build the playbooks and frameworks for org design, performance calibration, comp cycles, career ladders, headcount - that become the foundation for the HRBP function as it grows
- Employee Relations & Coaching
- Serve as a trusted advisor on employee relations, exercising judgment on what’s a coaching moment, a policy issue, or an escalation
- Coach leaders and managers on performance, feedback, and people leadership, building trust and transparency
- Contribute to L&D, People Program, and Total Rewards initiatives.
- Performance, Comp & Data
- Run performance reviews and the comp cycle for your client groups end to end - calibration, consistency, communication
- Bring a data- and metrics-driven approach - attrition, span of control, performance distribution to flag org risk before it becomes a retention problem
- AI & Ways of Working
- Use AI tools, including Factory’s own product, as a core part of how you operate - dogfooding what we build
- Operate at both altitudes: build durable systems while running the day-to-day operational load, often in the same week
Qualifications
- 8+ years in HR, with a strong track record as an HRBP or People Partner in high-growth, fast-paced tech companies
- Strong business acumen - you understand how the company makes money and decisions well enough to be a credible partner to functional leaders
- Curious and a real problem solver - you work root causes instead of pattern-matching to the nearest existing policy
