  • Lock arms We forge relationships that make our impact 1,000x stronger. This means working across departments and engaging both our clients and our communities to deliver the greatest good.

  • Embrace change From new technologies to workplace philosophies, we welcome the unexpected and constantly anticipate what’s next.
  • Elevate empathy We listen before we take action. This means understanding a variety of perspectives and holding ourselves to a higher standard of accountability.
  • Never settle We motivate each other to push past the easy answers and collectively arrive at bigger, more inspiring ideas.

  • Ability to align with our casual culture with a focus on flexibility, transparency, honesty, and nurturing, within a flat hierarchy, and growing business.
  • What you bring :

  • 7+ years of progressive comprehensive HR experience working in a fast‑paced, dynamic, technology environment, with at least 2 years in a HR Business Partner role.
