Senior Manager, People Business Partner

We are on a mission to Change the world to value skills over pedigree. We are a high-performing, mission-driven team that truly, madly, deeply cares about what we do. At HackerRank, we don’t see velocity and quality as tradeoffs - both matter. This sometimes means long days and work spilling into weekends, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. We each find balance in our own way, making time for what matters outside of work while always giving our best. If you are someone who takes pride in high-impact work and thrives in a driven team, HackerRank is where you belong.

At HackerRank, we’re proud to have a high-performing, mission-driven team that truly, madly, deeply cares about their work. Our goal in People Operations (or POps, as we like to call it!) is simple: to empower every HackerRanker to reach their highest potential—both individually and collectively. We are committed to creating an environment where people have the tools, resources, and support they need to do their best work.

About the role:

This role is based in the US and will also oversee the AMER HR Generalist, including managing benefits and compliance. We’re looking for someone who is both nimble and detail-oriented—a leader who can roll up their sleeves when needed and thrive in a fast-paced environment.

• Serve as a key member of the GTM leadership team, offering strategic guidance on people-related initiatives and execution.
• Collaborate closely with leaders on workforce planning, organizational design, performance management, and leadership development to support the business’s high growth.
• Lead company-wide talent programs within GTM, including talent calibrations and compensation reviews.
• Address complex employee relations issues with discretion, providing coaching and gathering feedback.
• Partner closely with other PBPs, HR Generalists, the Talent Acquisition team, and colleagues across the People team to design and implement effective, people-focused solutions.
• While focused on the Global GTM team, this role may also provide counsel and support to other teams as needed.
• Oversee benefits and compliance for the AMER region.

You will thrive in this role if:

• You thrive in a high-volume, fast-paced environment and can seamlessly shift between strategic and tactical tasks. You’re not afraid to "roll up your sleeves" to get things done.
• You communicate effectively and concisely, both verbally and in writing.
• You’re skilled at working with people from diverse backgrounds and can collaborate effectively across all regions.
• You have the ability to push back when needed, always operating in the best interest of the company while balancing employee needs with consistent company practices.

What you will also bring:

• 8+ years of experience in HR business partnering, including at least 2 years of managing a small team.
• Deep expertise in managing AMER benefits and HR compliance.
• Proven experience as a People Business Partner, supporting executive leaders, senior and entry-level managers, as well as individual contributors.

Bonus Skills:

• Experience partnering with GTM or customer-facing teams in a high-growth, global organization is highly preferred.
• Experience supporting AMER, EMEA, and APAC regions in a remote setup.

Benefits & Perks:

We have a full package of competitive benefits and perks, which include the following:

• One-time home office set up stipend
• Monthly Remote Work Enablement Stipend
