From Tin Can's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Tin Can is building a safer, simpler way for kids to connect — without smartphones. We’re creating screen-free, delightful devices and services that let families call the people who matter most, free from the noise of today’s digital world.
We’re building a bold, authentic, nostalgic, and kinda quirky brand that resonates with folks who want something simpler & better for their kids than the tech-infused lives we’re currently living (and who have a sense of humor about it). As we gear up to scale to thousands of families, we’re ready to bring on a Head of People to help make it happen.
Every promise we make to families is kept — or broken — by the people we hire. We’re growing fast, and the culture that got us here may not scale on its own. We’re looking for a Head of People who’s been through this stage before, someone who can help institutionalize our culture before growth dilutes it, and build every part of the employee experience (how we hire, onboard, pay, promote, develop, and support people) for the company we’re becoming.
You’ll have a seat at the table leading the company. You’ll take over from our fractional head of HR, and evaluate our current systems and practices, then develop the roadmap that builds the People function into an enabler of our growth bringing creativity & problem solving to deliver solutions. This is a role for a strategic leader who stays hands-on: you’ll architect the strategy, and you won’t hesitate to execute pieces (or all) of it yourself while you build the team behind it.
We’re on a quest to give kids a more analog childhood — one with real conversations, real connection, and way less screen time. No doomscrolling, data mining, or dopamine traps — just a simpler, better way for kids to stay in touch. This is a rare opportunity to build something that truly matters.
Institutionalizing culture before growth dilutes it is the bet everything else rests on — and every part of how we hire, pay, grow, and support people runs through you.
Every company says “team,” but at Tin Can it means something different. We’re a small, mission-driven group that genuinely has each other’s backs — professionally and personally. You’ll be joining a tight-knit crew where your ideas and instincts matter from day one.
You’ll have the space to explore new ideas, challenge assumptions, and shape an employee experience that reflects our values of trust, simplicity, and care.
If you’re excited by the idea of building the team that brings a simpler, better childhood to thousands more families, please reach out. We can’t wait to meet someone who’s ready to jump in, keep culture king, and help us grow.
