- We’re looking for an HR Business Partner who thrives at the intersection of strategy and execution

- You’ll be the embedded People partner for our EPDD org — Engineering, Product, Design, and Data — bringing both advisory depth and operational excellence to a fast-moving team that expects a trusted partner who can keep up

- Strategic Partnership (~60%):
- Serve as the dedicated HRBP for EPDD managers and senior managers — proactively building relationships, not just showing up in a crisis

- Coach leaders through performance conversations, complex ER cases, and difficult people decisions with speed and good judgment

- Partner on org health: use data to spot patterns, anticipate friction, and help leaders see around corners as we scale

- Support performance management cycles end-to-end — feedback, documentation, PIPs, and exits when needed

- Be an approachable and accessible partner for Homies across the team when they need support or guidance on moments that matter in the employee lifecycle

- Operational Excellence (~40%):
- Be the team’s subject matter expert on Canadian employment law and market practices

- Exceptional program management - you can identify, build, and deliver high-quality, impactful talent programs that solve a problem on the team

- Use AI to improve how you work — automate what can be automated, build what’s missing, streamline what’s slow

- MasterClass at Work for ongoing learning- If you’re energized by building trust with technical leaders, solving complex people challenges, and using AI to work smarter — this one’s for you

- Genuine AI fluency — you’ve built or improved a workflow with AI, measured the impact, and want to go further

- Strong Canadian & US employment law knowledge

- Toronto-based and energized by in-person collaboration

- HRIS experience (Rippling preferred)
- Proven experience managing leave programs and immigration cases — you know the details and don’t drop the ball

- Real advisory instincts: you’ve shaped decisions, not just supported them, through pattern recognition, data, insights, and strong instincts and influence

- 4 – 7 years of progressive HR experience, with at least 1 year in a true HRBP role — not HR admin, not systems; we’re looking for impact through your business partnership

- Direct experience supporting EPDD or R&D; teams is a major plus — engineers and PMs came to you

- Be Customer Obsessed – Solve problems with empathy and creativity

- Move Fast, Learn Fast – Experiment, take action, and grow every day

- Own Your Impact – Think big, focus on what matters, and make decisions you stand behind

- Master Your Craft – Excellence fuels impact—show up, step up, and make your mark

- Win Together – Put goals over roles, lead with trust, and connect to our mission and each other

- Experience comes in many forms—so if you’re excited about this role, even if you don’t meet 100% of the qualifications, we encourage you to apply!
