## Summary

Pylon is hiring its first dedicated people leader to build HR, recruiting, and people operations functions from scratch as the company scales from roughly 100 to 500+ employees. This role suits someone comfortable doing hands-on work—from payroll and offers to performance management and culture—alongside strategic people decisions, and who thrives in a fast-growing, in-person SF environment.

_Our summary, not Pylon's wording._

## Required

- Scaled a people function from ~50 to 500 employees
- Hands-on execution on recruiting, people ops, performance management, and compensation
- Experience with difficult employee relations situations like PIPs, terminations, and layoffs
- Willingness to do operational grunt work including payroll and offer closing for 12+ months
- Ability to work in-person in San Francisco

## Nice to have

- Non-traditional background outside HR
- Understanding of how to drive company strategy beyond people function
