Director of Talent & People Operations

Role Overview

We’re looking for a Director of Talent & People Operations to own how Scanner attracts, hires, develops, and retains exceptional people as we enter our next stage of growth. You’ll take over the Talent and People foundation currently managed by our Head of Operations including recruiting, HRIS, payroll, benefits, and employee operations and build the strategy and systems we need as the company scales.

What You Will Do

You’ll own recruiting across Engineering, Product, Sales, and Marketing, alongside workforce planning, People Operations, performance, manager enablement, employee experience, and culture.

Why It Might Be a Fit

You’ll help build the company itself. Few roles have more influence over who joins Scanner, how we operate, and what kind of company we become.

Requirements

• 8–12+ years across Talent, Recruiting, and People, with substantial experience in high-growth technology companies.
• Firsthand experience helping a company rapidly double or triple in size and building the Talent and People infrastructure required to support that growth.
• Deep recruiting expertise across both technical roles including Engineering and Product and GTM roles across Sales and Marketing.
• Proven ability to build recruiting programs, People systems, processes, and operating rhythms from an earlier stage.
• Strong hands-on recruiting ability: you’re still comfortable sourcing, running searches, interviewing, and closing difficult candidates.
• Strong People Operations fundamentals across HRIS, payroll, benefits, compensation, compliance, onboarding, performance, and the employee lifecycle.
• Experience shaping culture and employee experience through a period of significant company growth.
• Strong judgment and experience partnering directly with founders and leaders on organizational design, talent planning, compensation, performance, and sensitive People issues.
• Highly operational and data-driven, with the ability to move constantly between strategy and execution while introducing structure without bureaucracy.

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Meaningful equity
• Comprehensive benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision, 401k, commuter)
• Hybrid/remote-friendly with regular in-person collaboration in San Francisco, Mountain View, and Seattle
