Eka Robotics
We are looking for a Head of People to build and lead the People function at Eka.
You will work closely with our leadership team on the people and organizational questions that become increasingly important as Eka grows: how we structure teams, compensate and reward employees, develop new managers, maintain a strong culture, and build People systems that support our employees without creating unnecessary bureaucracy (e.g., revamping our hiring process to reduce burden on teams, improving new-joiner onboarding, formalizing performance management and feedback right sized to the organization, etc.).
We are looking for someone with broad HR experience who has seen this stage of company-building before and experienced first hand what happens as early stage startups scale, when complexities increase and informal practices are no longer enough.
This is a highly hands-on role. You will help set the direction and build the function, but you should also be comfortable personally doing the work.
Role Overview
Partner with our leadership team on organizational design, headcount planning, and how our teams should evolve as we scale.
Refine our compensation, leveling, and rewards philosophy, including salary structures, bonuses, equity grants, and refresh programs
Build practical approaches to performance, career development, manager training, and employee growth.
Help define and strengthen Eka’s culture and employee experience as the company grows.
Own the day-to-day People function, including HR policies and processes, benefits, payroll, compliance, employee relations, and employee support, working with external partners where appropriate.
Build lightweight, scalable People systems and work closely with our talent team to ensure recruiting and People strategy stay aligned.
Develop manager training and support, particularly for first-time managers and technical leaders
Advise leadership on employee relations, retention, organizational effectiveness, and other complex People matters.
