About this opportunity
Cockroach Labs lists this Sr. HR Business Partner, GTM opportunity in new york, New York. Review the employer’s description below for duties, qualifications and application requirements.
Job description
The next era of software won't operate at human scale. Applications will create applications. Systems will coordinate with systems. Data and decisions will move faster than teams can react to them. The infrastructure powering that world cannot be fragile, reactive, or limited by the assumptions of the past. Cockroach Labs exists to build what comes next — before the world requires it.
We created CockroachDB to survive failures, scale without compromise, and adapt to changing conditions automatically. Now we're helping define a future where complexity fades into the background and infrastructure simply works, no matter the scale.
This is the kind of challenge that attracts people who want to shape industries, not just participate in them. The work is ambitious, the standards are high, and the impact is real.
The Role
We are looking for a Senior HR Business Partner to join our People team at Cockroach Labs. As a strategic partner, you will closely align our talent and business objectives by directly supporting Roachers in the GTM organization. You will work closely with managers and leaders to provide hands‑on and strategic input, insight, and advice with respect to employee relations, performance management, coaching, compensation, conflict management, organizational development, training, and more. You're comfortable speaking up and driving initiatives forward despite any unexpected roadblocks. You are someone who is interested in making a significant impact and excels in a fast‑paced, high‑engagement environment with an extraordinary desire to innovate.
You Will
Partner with managers and leaders to translate business objectives into what is required from a people perspective and represent the People Team in your day‑to‑day work with the GTM organization.
Lead HR programs and processes (performance management, annual reviews, etc.) and provide HR expertise to ensure desired objectives and outcomes are attained.
Offer thought leadership by coaching and advising leaders on key people matters, including but not limited to team cohesion, individual development, and organizational design.
Support leaders through periods of organizational change, including team restructuring, role evolution, and workforce planning decisions.
Develop multi‑year people strategies and design approaches for diagnosing and enhancing organizational effectiveness and employee satisfaction.
Analyze and interpret various employee reports (e.g., compensation, job levels, and attrition) to guide decision‑making and provide proactive solutions to client groups.
Partner across the HRBP Team to work on value‑added programs in areas of training, development, career mobility, and job performance.
Have foundational knowledge of federal and state laws and be willing to explore nuances or explain details to managers and teams, more broadly.
Collaborate with the People team to champion and accelerate a culture of excellence in which people feel engaged and inspired to deliver top business results.
The Expectations
In your first 30 days, you will learn about our current processes, programs, and systems. You will meet with colleagues across the company and start building relationships that will help you better understand Cockroach Labs. It is imperative that you take this time to connect with fellow Roachers, so that you have an understanding of how we work and what we value.
In your first 60 days, you will gain familiarity with your GTM colleagues. You'll start to think of plans that will play to our strengths, mitigate our weaknesses, and build upon the foundation of processes and programs we offer.
After 3 months, you will be integrated into the team. You will be the primary HR point of contact working directly with GTM. You will leverage strong relationships across our People Team for support and share feedback that can be deployed to improve people processes and programs company‑wide.
You Have
Minimum 8 years of experience required; preferred experience working in a fast‑moving, high‑growth organization
5 years of experience working with managers and leaders in an HRBP or People Partner capacity; preference for candidates with experience supporting go‑to‑market organizations
Relevant experience building and improving company culture and increasing employee engagement, and expertise in performance management
Experience building and maintaining relationships with managers and leaders while influencing across multiple organizational layers
A track record of strategic partnering with business leaders on multi‑year company or org‑wide people initiatives
Experience demonstrating judgment and integrity in sensitive situations
Superb communication skills, including effective facilitation, listening and writing
Knowledge of HR programs and practices, including applicable state and federal employment laws and regulations
